That's pretty stacked, tbh... what does the bench look like? Just Donatello?

Mavs to sign Delonte West

tbh i've always liked his game (even though I'd be tempted to punch him in the face if I saw him in person) he always played pretty well off LeBron and I feel he could do the same with Nowitzki

This team might not repeat but they will again be tough to beat this season

[ElNono]

Forgot about bi-polar... quality/not-quality pickup... depending on what side of him you get...

[Giuseppe]

No in' (buts). You'll either ring, or, you'll be up in front of the man.

[Muser]

All depends on what big man they get.

Nicest thing about West, is he gives us a guy who can actually stick with the super-quick PGs, such as Parker, Rose, and CP3. Of course he wont shut them down, as no one really can, but his ability to stay with them and be physical, will mean those types of players wont eat the Mavs up quite as easily as they used to.

If Haywood plays hard, the Mavs should be alright, although I would prefer if they could get Dalembert or someone like that.

+1

he also seems like he could be a Vujacic/Varejao y-annoying player that every quality team needs. Like I said I'd love to punch him in the face which is why i'm glad he's on our team

[ElNono]

tbh, it's all in the hands of...

Based Marion

[Axe Murderer]

i just remembered our Marion will outplay _______ in this series schtick from last year

lol the Mavs should start Odom at the 2, and have a ridiculously massive lineup

Kidd 6'4
Odom 6'10
Marion 6'7
Dirk 7'0
Haywood 7'0

the defense/rebounding would be fantastic, thats for sure.

Personally, I think some consideration should be given to West starting at the 2, so he can defend the more deadly opposing guard. He is fully capable of hitting open shots, handling the ball, and penetrating when given the chance. He can provide what Stevenson brought, but even more. He also has a very underrated post game, so opposing defenders who are undersized or suck, can't just hide themselves on Stevenson like they did last year.

Best part of this signing besides his defense ...

TBH, Even though im starting to get annoyed with the local Mavs fans here with their chest puffed out, If we (lakers) can't win 17, I would LOVE to see a Mavs/Heat re-match.

Taking turns on your mom.

Damn!

Let´s say: Kidd-Carter-Marion-Dirk-Haywood are the starters.

Bench: Roddy, Terry, Odom, Mahinmi, West, Brewer and Cardinal/Jones/Wright.

Pretty good!

Taking turns on your mom.

And again owned!

If VC makes a dedicated effort to improve and focus heavily on defense, like Caron Butler did when coming to Dallas, that will make the Mavs so much more deadly.

Having his mix of size and skills at SG is something the Mavs haven't had since Finley.

Either him or West should end up starting at SG. West is probably a better matchup overall defensively, but Carter's scoring ability should really help take some heat off Dirk to begin games.
