Screw Davis, trade for Okafor!
If the problem is that Dampier is a defensive specialist that other teams don't have to guard, you can put Dirk at the 5 on offense and play Marion alongside him at the 4. I think you can get away with playing Dirk there 15-20 minutes a game. Not every team has a dominant big that can get him into foul trouble, and those that do will be guarded by Damp.
I've been lusting for Okafor for a while. We're talking about a 13/10/2 player with very good defense, somewhat underappreciated since he plays in Charlotte. He would be the perfect center for this team and I'd consider us serious championship contenders if we got him.
I was hoping the economy would put Charlotte in some sorta cost cutting mode but I don't see any Okafor rumors. It's somewhat pipedreamish anyway to acquire a 26 YO top 10 center in a salary dump (although Lakers got something similar in Gasol deal!).
I would even take back Rad or Mohammed's contract for Okafor.
IF Damp is the starting center, im sure the mavs will run this lineup out their a majority of the time..Kidd/JET/J-Ho/Marion/Dirk
Can we agree that would be the Mavs version of the 'run-and-gun'?
scribb that Buckner buyout thing you mentioned. Is there a deadline for that, or can he still be bought out for $1 million even after he is able to be traded in multi player deals?
Sometime in September is the deadline for Buckner.
im sure there is a deadline just like Stack's was on Aug. 10th but havent heard as for Buck. I just know he cant be traded by himself 90 days after being acquired
