If the Mavs need Harris this badly, they aren't a contender

[monosylab1k]

If we're going to make a move for this season, Kidd is the way to go. Even if we give up 4 guys for him, our basketball IQ quadruples. I'm really starting to believe we're the dumbest team in the NBA.

Kidd simply isn't a realistic option, not for us or Jersey.

Jason Kidd provides leadership and intelligence, and this team can rally around him.

Dude, STFU.

Mavs are 34-17 and the 3rd seed even with all of the injuries this year.

Jason Kidd is old as dirt and Nets want too much for him. Only way he's going to another team is after his contract expires with the Nets. But keep wishing away.

This is the same group that reached the 06 Finals and knocked of the Spurs on the way. The Mavs are contenders only if they listen to their coach. Avery Johnson is the only one who has one a championship in that group and he is the only tough guy on that team.

This is the same team that made it to the Finals in 06 and won 67 games in 07

There's teams that grab it by the balls and go win, and there's teams that make excuses for their failures.

Why don't all of you Mavs Homers tell ME which one the Mavs look like right now?

Either the Mavs as an organization change this culture of excuse-making or we'll never see a championship here.

check yourself mono.
this team is a threat to beat anyone when healthy.

In a year where the 1-seed and the 8-seed are separated by five games, I do think it's inexcusable to lay that egg in Philly.

If this bad week turns into a bad two or three weeks, the Mavs could easily find themselves fighting it out with GS, Portland, Houston, etc, for the 7/8 seed.

just a stroke of visionary genius. but some disagree...

34-17 projects out to 55-27, 56-26

I'm not saying they're in danger of missing the playoffs. I'm just saying that the West is so compe ive this year that mid-season games against NJ & PHI are more significant this year than in years past

If the West stays this tight, there won't be much qualitative difference between a 3 and 6 seed. HCA is nice, but le teams don't need it. If that's the expectation for this club, then they can win just fine without it.

whoops

The seeds will space out by the end of the season.

That's a horrible trade. 3 starters for one used to be great player who can't shoot.

Harris has had half a good season. You're an idiot if you think Harris is untouchable.

Harris isn't untouchable, but pretty damn close.

Again, we're seriously going to put Harris in the league of "untouchable" or even pretty close to that after half a good season????????????

Howard isn't a poor defender, but his defensive ability was severely overrated early on. He's above average but that's about it. However, 4 years ago "above average" meant he was the best defender on the team.

Mark Cuban really was the one who started the "Josh Howard is one of the top defensive players in the league" idea. It's just not true.

damn, i'm good.

Allanon- There's a date and time on it if I edited it now. I can specifically find the post where I said he was a "role player" FIRST.

You take the bet or not you pussy ?

Mono - Ok I take that bet.

Allanon - I showed you where "role player" was. I won.

Change your sig to "I'm Allanon's ", Mono.
