Official Dallas Mavericks Offseason Speculation Thread

[monosylab1k]

I'm taller than Barea! I can sit on the bench for $1.5 million a year and be Dirk's goofy, adorable buddy.

he probably holds better value for the franchise if they just name him the official third mascot and send him out there with Mavs Man & Champ to shoot the t-shirt guns.

plus marketing wise being Puerto Rican makes the mavs more diversified and there are idiots that love the lovable JJB and waste their money on his jerseys

My only theory for the Mavs' inactivity is that Cuban already took quite the tax hit bringing in Kidd, and there are a number of players the Mavs would love to have but are not available right now because at this point of the offseason, after the bulk of the player movement is over, there's about 25 teams penciling themselves in for 50 wins and a trip to the playoffs.

Of course some teams are not going to reach their goals and will look to shed salary in February. I bet in Cuban's mind, it's up to the players on the roster right now that will determine if the Mavs are buyers or sellers in February. There won't be any ing around and "Oh, we're just working on some things and experimenting with different lineups, we'll be ready when it counts," like last year. These guys have no choice but to go all out in November and December. That's what the Celtics did last year, and it set the tone for the entire season. I'm not comparing the Mavs to the Celtics, but it would behoove them to not twiddle their s like they did last year.

Mavs sitting can only mean a few things:

1) They're waiting for LeBron, Wade, Kobe in 2010
2) There's a Chinese Player that's better than Jordan that they'll sneak in at the last minute
3) They're waiting for Mark Cuban's next show to fill out their Roster "Who wants to be an NBA player"

Dallas is not as bad as you guys make them out to be

they could easily be the 4th or 5th seed this season
