I am myself. Who the are you?
I am a huge Iguodola fan, he's a tremendous defensive player, has a great handle, can pass, and takes it hard to the rack. I've officially starting to talk myself into him again. He's one of the few 1/2 options in the league who always guards the opposing team's top scorer.
Problem is like mono said they insist on including Brand and if Cubes thinks Jefferson has a bad deal, then .
I am myself. Who the are you?
If Cuban balked at 3/42 for Jefferson, what is he going to say to 3/50 for Brand, who is half the player Jefferson is at this point?
Jefferson is on his way to becoming the next Brand. Only he's doing 4 years earlier.
I'm the guy that's not a frontrunning, disappearing turd that magically shows up and sticks his nose in the after a long absence.
You must be the other guy.
And Iggy has 4/54 left on his deal, with the final year being a player option I'm sure he'd exercise. Iggy/Brand have a cap figure of $27 million next year alone. And Brand is a shadow of his 2006 self.
You come up with that all by yourself?
Well now I'm here and you better get used to be me. I'm going to be here often for the next 5 years as we rack up championships.![]()
Exactly. What the is left then? The first person to say some like Baron Davis or Deng can go themselves.
lol his last post before the miami debacle 4-17-08
lol dissappearing for 2 years
How much game do you think Brand has left? I didn't watch a lot of Sixers games this year, but I did go to their annual visit to Dallas back in November. Iggy was tremendous that night and Brand was...decent.
I'm trying to talk myself into this, but this is disappointing. Jefferson is only two years removed from a 23/11 season. Stats aren't everything, but I've watched him enough to know he's a skilled and efficient low-post scorer. I think he can be an asset to a team that doesn't rely on him as a #1 option.
it.
It's done.
Jefferson to Utah.
I'm going to beat my wife and go to bed.
lol bandwagoning heat fan.
lol like that flo-rida
I clearly stole it from you, mono.
Jefferson is 1 year removed from a serious knee injury and now there are questions about his heart/work ethic.
This is the guy that was supposed to replace Kevin Garnett. Now they're shipping him out when they have Kevin Love and Darko. Think about that.
Brand is a s but he's still going to give you tough post-defense and reliable mid-range jumper. I'd be doing the trade for Iggy though and then see what I could get for Caron by the deadline.
You're spot on. Plus he removes attention from Dirk. You can't gamble sending a double from whoever is guarding him anymore, like it used to be with whoever was guarding damp. Between both you gain spacing for guys like Butler to penetrate. This was a no-brainer.
And lol 21 ings. Kobe is just part of the equation. It's that frontline cleaning the glass, and playing off Kobe that kills you.
Hey, there's always a pipedream CP3 trade scenario to look forward to!!
Trade idea: DUST+Carroll+Stevenson+Najera+1st round pick for CP3.
What do you guys think?
I'm going to go email this idea to Donny.
Nothing wrong with that.
The concerns about Jefferson's defense are more than valid. Without Haywood, sure a Dirk-Jefferson frontline is tough to guard, but the Mavs were looking at having to score 115-120 a night to win. With Haywood taking up 30 of those minutes, I felt a lot better about being able to live with Jefferson's defensive deficiencies.
If you're asking me would I rather have Jefferson or the combo of Iggy/Brand, I could grudgingly be talked into the latter, because Iggy would be a two-way player on a Mavs roster that has too few of them, and Brand would make for a serviceable third big in our rotation. But good God those two contracts are going to be tough to absorb.
Tough for whom? I thought Cuban's pockets were bottomless?
Funny thing is NO probably already had that in their inbox this week.
Sorry Mav fans butletting the best low post scorer in the game slip through your fingers.

You could have had a 25 all star center and your FO tried to force the other team to take Matt Carroll and Deshawn Stevenson. Doesn't even make sense.
Minnesota:"Take this all star center off our hands for nothing.:
Dallas:"No, you have to take on some bad contracts if you want give us this all star level center."

That's gotta hurt.
I almost don't feel bad about Matt Bonner anymore.
Well that's not true. But still...
