    why put a spin on that story? they planned the parade and looked re ed for doing it. end of story.
    No, they didn't. I guess we can't have a debate or a discussion on this when we can't even agree on basic facts.

    Dirk will end up like KG... KG tried so hard to win ring in minnesota but wasn't able to do it and he end up going to Boston and won le there.

    Dirk need to do something like that.. go to some team on EAST.. may be Miami with Wade or Atlanta with Joe Johnson..

    Well you've been so right about the team this season I guess I'd better defer to you.

    It's not like I predicted the Spurs would be up 3-1 right now or anything.

    Things the Mavs need:

    A lockdown (or at least well above average) defender.

    A penetrating guard who can get into the paint at will.

    A true 2nd scoring option around Dirk. The closet they've had is Josh Howard and that just won't cut it.

    Optional but optimal -- A real post presence. No more placeholders. Dampier and Haywood are just not the answer, they're filler players who eat cap room. A 6'9" player who can score inside would be preferable to one of them.
    1. Marion. Maybe not for Manu, but he does a great job defending Melo, Kobe and Durant. But for how much longer will he be quick enough to do so...

    2. Roddy Beaubois. He will improve a lot next year and should get 20+ mpg.

    3. Thats the story of Mavfans lives.

    4. Drew Gooden? lol. I don't know what we could get there.

    Not interested in somebody who sucks so bad he can barely lead his team past the 9-73 worst team ever mark.

    Actually, a legitimate post option would do wonders for Dallas. I mean a guy like Kaman/Brand would really make a huge difference. But we've been saying this for 5+ seasons now...

    Yeah, you predicted Butler and Marion would be benched in favor of JJB. You started ing your pants back in March and made plans for the Conference Finals about how "WE STACKED" right after the trade. Why can't I call you out for miffing that one? You said this team would quit at the first sign of adversity in the playoffs and crawl into the fetal position, when that's not how the series has played out at all. Instead they've been shooting themselves in the foot and having to climb uphill. So yeah, you're batting .1000.

    You seem to be under the impression that Dirk for Kobe was ever a possibility when it wasn't (see Kobe's no-trade clause). You've been pining for the Mavs to trade for Baron Davis () and Chris Kaman (long contract and history of foot problems) as if those two players are some sort of magical elixir for what ails this team.

    The Mavs lost two winnable games in San Antonio by a grand total of 7 points when you said that they had no chance at winning them at all because they are "front-running jump-shooting pussies." Where is the post where you predicted Rick Carlisle would coach this team out of the series? You seem awfully y about how the Mavs had no shot at all in this series when they're one non-idiot coach away from being up 3-1.

    You think so? admittedly, all i've seen from him were those short 5 minutes a game back.

    Hmm so Jason Kidd has been awful this postseason. We've really needed a quicker PG who is a threat offensively. Maybe a strong, athletic PG like....ohhh.....I don't know.....I'll just throw out the name Baron Davis. And you say a post presence like Chris Kaman would make a difference?

    Wow, if only there was some way we could have traded Jason Kidd for Baron Davis AND Chris Kaman. I know, I know, it's a pipe dream to even think about it. Nobody would be that stupid to offer those two for only Jason Kidd.

    oh, you mean that offer was on the table? and Dallas turned it down? lol wut?

    Yeah, an athletic point guard with offensive skills and a big man with post skills is something the Mavs have spilling out their assholes it's so plentiful.

    All I know is I said the Mavs would be down 3-1 in this series right now and got scoffed by every Mavs fan on this board. I said BACK IN MARCH that this team would not get out of the 1st round.

    And I also said if they played to their potential, they'd be in the Western Conference Finals. Unfortunately that came with the disclaimer that there's no way in they'd play to their potential consistently enough to get there.

    don't put me in there. I said weeks ago that this team couldn't win a championship, and for that reason they should give roddy major minutes.

    even if by some miracle they were to beat the spurs.

    I love that you posted that link as if that vindicates anything. What team would trade for a big man with $50 million left on his contract and a history of foot problems? Even Yao Ming and Bill Walton occasionally made it through a season relatively intact. And what team would trade for Baron Davis when he sucks and has that contract? Ever wonder why the Clippers so desperately want to unload him?

    Now, a Baron Davis who gave a and played hard all the time, that's a different story. It's hard to fault the Mavs for not taking a chance on either of those guys. You'd rip Donnie to shreds at the first sign of Davis going through the motions or Kaman getting hurt. I'd like Kaman on the Mavs, but not if I have to take Baron Davis too. That guy is poison and cancer.

    mono; bulletin board material doesnt mean anything in the NBA playoffs. Spurs are a veteran team that knows they have few shots left at a ring and wouldn't need any more motivation.

    Also if the Mavs resting in '07 v W's is bulletin board material then so wouldn't the Spurs resting this year v Mavs in final game? But that hasn't worked out for us

    Isn't "scoffed" a pretty strong word? Neither Spurs in 6 or Mavs in 7 is an outrageous basketball opinion.

    I said BACK IN MARCH that this team would not get out of the 1st round.
    Aren't you the originator of the 'WE STACKED' meme?

    The guy played in 56 games in 2008 and 31 games in 2009. No GM in his right mind would trade for that guy and his contract under those conditions. And to have to take on Baron "I play hard 15% of the time and show up to training camp 20 lbs overweight" Davis and his contract as well? No thanks.

    Unless Dirk has given up on them and leaves, this team will stay the same next year.

    If anything, JJ needs to go so that coach of theirs will never pull that BS again. What a freaken IDIOT! I still think the Mavs will beat SA.

    Apparently the Mavericks don't use bulletin board material. They've also been a part of some of the most embarrassing playoff defeats in NBA history. I'm sure that's just a coincidence.
