It's been that way even with Dirk. Or did the first half of the SA game convince you that defense is our problem?
I'm really talking myself into wanting Arenas on this team.
I hope he'd be serious about coming to a contender.
CUBAN MAKE IT HAPPEN!

Yes and San Antonio, Boston, and Houston are all great defensive teams. This team is actually worse on defense. They just haven't played the high speed teams until recently which will go off on them. See Denver and Golden State.
No they're not. Look at what the Nuggets did to the Mavs before the trade. Thanks.
Prediction: Cuban sells the team and the new owner moves them to Seattle, because OKC is too close to Dallas.
One thing I'd caution before dreaming about Arenas in the blue and green is that he just undercut his negotiating position with the Wizards in order to help out Antawn Jamison. He'll be the #2 option in Dallas behind Dirk but he's the #1 option in Washington. I'm sure he'll stay with the Wiz, but the Mavs should absolutely make an offer to get him here. Can't hurt.
America, eatin' my lunch from a single bowl in my parents basement, where I'm livin'. Happy Birthday, I'm forty-three.
Don't want to waste those precious calories...chewin'. Jesus come move my jaw for me, help me get my sloppy food down my throat
huh?![]()
Im really hoping the Mavs make it...
DONT BLOW THIS GAME MAVS!
Thanks Gino. As much as it might be better in the long term to get a high draft pick, this has the potential to be one of the best playoffs ever, and there's a big part of me that wants Dallas to be a part of it, if only for one round.
Well, we can put our s away and stop jerkin' it to Agent Zero. Found this on another board, it pretty effectively throws cold water on Arenas to Dallas talk:
Dallas has no feasible way to get him anyways even if he were willing to take a lower salary. He's not taking the MLE, so you can rule that option out and Washington will not sign and trade him, and not for garbage (which is basically what we can offer). He also doesn't fit in this team with Kidd, both players need the ball to be efficiently, so that rules it out again... Oh and did I mention he's not coming here ?, not going to happen, not possible, keep dreaming though.
okay no arenas. that means on to corey maggette or gerald wallace. or both?
how about...
Terry/Bass for Maggette
Howard/pick for Wallace
Dampier for Curry
MLE for Pietrus
PG - Kidd
SG - Maggette
SF - Wallace
PF - Nowitzki
C - Curry
Pietrus
Stack
Allen
Wright
Lue
etc.
I say go after Wallace. I would actually rather have him than Maggette, even though I really like Corey. I think Wallace and his hustling ability and effectiveness without the ball is what we need at swingman, because we already have two guys that are fantastic at dominating the ball in Kidd and Dirk. And honestly, I would rather keep Terry than Howard. At least he has shown that he is capable of making plays in the 4th and crunch time. Howard has never really shown that ability. And I like Terry coming off the bench. I think a coaching change would help Terry too. I think he is getting sick of Avery barking at him so much that he just doesn't care that much any more. Del Harris would definitely be nice.
I want a guy that will make us complain that " . All that mother er does is alley-oop. He needs to find another way to score. It's getting old".
Hey did you guys hear that Avery Johnson may decide to sue the owner of fireavery.com?!
that would make for a nice distraction.
just what the doctor ordered.
holy , Mavfans were seriously thinking they could get Arenas??
looks like things hit rock bottom in Dallas
Looks like the site owner is backtracking as well. the site is now listed as "A not so serious, knee-jerk reacting Dallas Mavericks blog". I no longer support the site. One little threat of legal action and they back off like es. Pretty soon that site is going to be called AveryJohnsonIsAGod.com
Really?! I don't know what the owner is scared of, he didn't diss Avery he only said his opinion on some of Avery coaching moves. Avery Johnson anyway though
What is today?
Uh no, we threw cold water on it for logistical reasons. Arenas himself mentioned Dallas as a possible destination, but it ain't happening.
Yo findog who is that guy in your avatar? He looks so familiar...
David Koresh
I think I did a project on him once, i'm not sure though
