I heard that Kidd could shoot the 3 pretty good.......just a rumor though.
You are correct sir....Spurs are compe ive here. Rest assured though, if Cubes has the full MLE he'll use it rather than seeing Brewer come to SA.

Luxury tax is also something to keep in mind here. Spurs can use most of their MLE remainder and still be under the threshold. Mavs are already over, so Brewer costs them 2x. Although Cuban probably doesn't care......
I don't think there's any doubt that the mavs interest in Brewer is more about wanting to keep him away from us over wanting him for themselves.Spurs are compe ive here. Rest assured though, if Cubes has the full MLE he'll use it rather than seeing Brewer come to SA.
That's what I thought too, too much trouble scoring for the Mavs. On the Spurs, he'd be fine seeing as how RJ has no show nights and they still win.
Marion comes off the bench right now. Plus Marion can play the 4. Marion is old, but I will admit he has been effective in the way the Mavs have used him.
Jefferson struggled because he had to learn the offense and defense. We tell Brewer to not shoot unless the shot clock reaches 1. All he needs to learn is defense.
He couldn't after game one of the playoffs last year. He shoots the three pretty good in the regular season, but the playoffs allow teams to focus more and he was pretty ineffective against George Hill.I heard that Kidd could shoot the 3 pretty good.......just a rumor though.
www.twitter.com/coreybrewer22 Gogogo. Love how he's trending but nobody thinks to find out if he has a Twitter account. Mostly tweets from Spurs fan so far with the occasional Dallas fan.
One more thing to be said about this guy and then I need to get back to work. He has always played on a terrible team. Let's see what he can do when he gets to a playoff quality team.
I see a lot of guys out there that won't make much a difference. I mean Murphy? Guy has been pretty average or below that most of his career. Bibby? Guy was done about four years ago. Sure, he occassionally shows a pulse, but he's too slow now to do anything.
Brewer is definitely an impact player with his defense. He could make a difference on a good team where he couldn't on that terrible Minnesota team.
Besides we know he'll be a heck of a defender given that D'Antoni can't find a use for him in his system.
where does it show whos tweeting him. i dont know how to use twitter lol
Awfully small sample there. Point is, JKidd is a legit threat from deep. Any gameplan that doesn't take that into account is asking for trouble. Having said that, the Mavs don't really need any more deep threats. They've got Jet, Dirk, Peja. Barea and Beaubois have been known to hit an occasional 3 as well.
agreed, I created a twitter just to tell him we would love him on our team. Took me about 5 minutes just to figure that out :P
I see where it shows his tweets but I don't see where it shows tweets from others tweeting him. hahaha
That's his account. To see who's tweeting him go to the search bar and type in @coreybrewer22. Mostly from Spurs fans so far.
Marc Stein just said Chicago isn't going to go after him because they were already offered him before the trade deadline and they said no. They're still looking for more of shooter I'm guessing.
Yeah Chicago needs a shooter. Mr. Brewer won't be mistaken for one anytime soon.
wow, so many Spurs posts on twitter.
Right. Except that J Kidd has had trouble shooting in all of the playoff rounds since he came to Dallas. Granted he can shoot the three, but you can defend it better in the playoffs, which is what S.A. did.
Brewer would be an awesome pickup. I don't get why Knicks waived him.
Right now, my ranking for waived player is:
1. Brewer
2. McGuire
3. Derrick Brown
4. Rasual Butler
5. Jared Jeffries
6. Morris Peterson
Is that Dominic McGuire?
He was a good rebounder for the Wizards here in DC but that's pretty much it.

Any chance Spurs go for Leon Powe? Pretty solid guy in the limited minutes he gets and played for 08 Celtics.

I'm crossing my fingers!
I'm glad the Knicks waived him but here is this:

I'm as stunned as anyone that Knicks didn't want to try to find minutes for Brewer but NYK prefers Jared Jeffries cause he knows MDA system
Hopefully Brewer views himself as a Spur, and as a Bowen type. We're not going to ask him to be anything he's not.
Also, he's a really good dude who grew up in Tennessee - very quiet, small town guy. A lot like Dyess.
Dude is definitely a Spur type of person.
I thought the Mavs used part of their MLE on Peja.
lol Knicks
lol Jeffries
The money factor in favor of Dallas isn't as big as you can first think.
First, there isn't a single team in the NBA that has the full MLE left. Exceptions (MLE and LLE) are prorated after Jan 10th by 1/170th per day. Right now, a full "MLE" is about $4M.
Second, there is a complex CBA rule that, sometimes, when a player is waived and re-sign for more than the min, his previous team hasn't to pay the whole amount left on his contract.
At the end the difference between Mavs throwing all their money and a min offer could be around $3M. It's still a lot of money to offer Brewer that $3M gain, Cuban will have to pay $8M.
I don't really see money being the main factor for Brewer. If he wants to get as much minutes as possible, a lottery team seems to be the best choice. If he wants some minutes and playing on a good team, Spurs and Mavs both have minutes available for him.
