One game decides the success of a game right?
Butler went 4/16,and haywood backed up dampier with only 14 min of play.seems like big waste of talent. Haywood would have been better off here being a starting center.Butler will not average more than 15ppg.
MAVS dont scare me.Its hilarious how they thought with this trade, they are up there with the lakers.Please.

You Loser.
First game. They will be fine. Great trade for Dallas.
...yeah?
nothing great about the trade if haywood will backup erika.Butler will not average more than what he averaged in washington.trade overhyped and you will see.mark my words.
He averaged 20pt/6rb/4as in Washington the last 3 seasons in Washington. That isn't to shabby and as for Haywood, he is a nice backup Center to have. Does the trade allow them to compete with the Lakers? I doubt it, but it certainly is a good trade for the Mavs.
And if Butler had scored 30 it would have proven once and for all what a great trade it was, right.
chill out, itz just one game. Remeber the season opener when spurs blew out the hornets?
<1000 posts poster thread opening fail...
They'll be VERY tough come playoff time...
foret about career average.butler is declining.look at his season average.16pts.he will average even less in dallas.
overhyped trade.
with our roster right now, we are equal.if we get Thomas or haslem we are better.
fail.
remember our first game of the season? i thought we were going to lose 15 games after that great start
let's not get ahead of ourselves
Er... yes?
Oh, Juanobili beat me to it.
This thread=fail
Yeah, go ahead and decide that this was a horrible trade after one game.
ooh, shocker. it's the first game.
fail
implying post count = quality ....
Let me guess, this thread wouldn't have been started if it wasn't for your insecurity over the failed RJ trade?![]()
Paging SpursDynasty... Where's the 'What now Mavs?' thread on the NBA forum?
![]()
RJ sucked in his first game with us and look how well he turned out.
Oh, .![]()
Jefferson averaged 20 last year for MIL. What's your point?
There is a correlation.
There are not enough shots for Butler to average what he did in Washington. Haywood will equally have a tough time sharing minutes with Dampier. Both centers are very much alike and really don't provide Dallas with much of a different look. The time it will take for these guys to adapt may take too long. Haywood needs to play major minutes but Dampier knows the system and is still rebounding good. It is not an easy coaching situation. Obviously, they went to Butler quite a bit in this game, but I would not be surprised if Caron becomes Dallas's RJ.
im laughing so hard at this thread right now. you do realize that the only time this team has been together before today's game...was today's shoot around. they haven't had a single practice with the team yet, and your judging?
