One's a spot-up 3-ball shooter and nothing more, the other is a dynamic and versatile #1 scoring option that takes one 3-pointer a game. Yeah, they're exactly alike.![]()
What's wrong with thedong? You didn't like his Dirk Nowitzki Channing Frye comparison![]()

Most of the guys in the NBA have the potential to be great defenders but chose to be a bunch of lazy s when it comes to the defensive end. J-Ho has the potential to be a great defender but I'm not going say he is one merely based of potential.
On bad teams he's proven he doesn't give a and plays like it.
On good teams he's proven he can be a top 3 PG in the league.
Last I checked, the Mavericks are a good team.
no thanks, but love that you are asking very kind
I think only once or twice he's really proven he can be a top 3 PG in the league. Even then, he did exactly what you said... proven he CAN BE. Not that he actually was. I've always been a huge B-Diddy fan, but the dude has never been consistent for his whole career. Not sure if its because he's lazy, or because of the plethora of injuries he's dealt with.
Oh, God! I hope not!
It's this simple guys....
Dirk needs a low post scorer that's not a defensive liability. Andrew Bynum would be great, but probably impossible to get. Dirk also needs a point guard that could at least guard my grandmother so that other teams point guards wouldn't repeatedly rape us in the paint. If Dirk has that, you can plausibly compete with such a team. Until this happens, Dirk will continue to waste away in his prime.
Great ideas!
Unfortunately it's kinda hard to build a dream team that has no weaknesses. The best teams are teams that find ways to mask their weaknesses as much as possible. In the Mavs case, getting a consistent post scorer will make their offensive CONSIDERABLY more efficient, which in turn will lead to increased efficiency on defense. What killed the Mavs most was that they would constantly go through dead stretches where they wouldn't score for 5+ minutes, resulting in a lot of chances for the opponent to get out in transition and get easy buckets. If the Mavs can score with more efficiency, their defense will improve tremendously, the way it did back from 05-07. They were decent defensively, but not great. But having the most efficient offense in the NBA, along with a slower, more calculated offense helped that tremendously. Now, they try to get out and do a lot more running, but often end up taking bad shots, which hurts them a lot on defense and rebounding. They really are not a great running team, and need to slow things down more on offense. The only guy that really should be getting out on the break regularly is Beaubois, and at times, Kidd, as long as others run the floor with him. Terry often was a HUGE reason that the offense would stagnate, as he would settle for and miss long jumpers, without even using much clock up and allowing the offense to try to look for a better shot first. I have said for years now, that the offense truly is the Mavericks weakest link.
Jason Kidd, Rodrigue Beaubois
Caron Butler, Dominique Jones
Lebron James, Shawn Marion
Dirk Nowitzki, Drew Gooden
Brendan Haywood, Marcin Gortat

Cubes basically got back the pick we gave to the nets in the Kidd trade and actually improved 2 spots from #27 to #25. Jones appears to be a proven player who excelled in the best conference in the nation. Very happy with the pick considering what we went into the draft with.
Summer league should be fun this year with Roddy at PG and Jones at Sg
Mavericks were last year too.
stacked when roddy played, its hard to win playoff games when a 5'9 midget with t rex arms gets curbstomped over and over again on defense. When carlisle actually used roddy, we all saw what happened.
I love how Mavs fans hype that guy up like he is Lebron.
Its pretty clear that he is 20X better than Barea. SpurFan should know that considering he ran circles around your team when he played in game 6.
In fact even though he barely played he managed to get a 40 point game as our 11th man![]()
Ok I can almost gurantee he was not in the scouting report and that he caught the Spurs off guard. I guess if Spurs would have played Blair more then Bonner, we are a championship team![]()
What has anyone on that team ever won? Nothing, they're all choking pussies, especially Dirk and Lebron. That team doesn't get out of the West. We do. Cause we stacked. We got rings to prove it, .
Sounds like a scarred Laker fan who knows a 3 peat won't happen due to the Dallas Mavericks

They didn't scout Beaubois? Not buying it.
just like they didn't scout Barea, Bass, and Hollins back in 09
as well as Dirk, Terry, Jho, Devin, Diop back in '06
