    Wow, I don't like this at all. We do need more size in the backcourt, more interior d and low-post scoring, but I don't see Noah having that much of an impact as a rookie. I didn't watch a lot of college ball, what are some other impressions of him?

    This would make signing Stackhouse a must. If they plan on keeping Stack and bringing Desmond Mason aboard, I'd consider this. Noah gives us tons of energy and defense. He has some decent post moves but I doubt he'd give us much in terms of scoring. This is intriguing but I'm not as sold on Noah as others, this is definitely a risky move.

    There's also a rumor about a S/T involving Gerald Wallace for Terry. That might be Mavfan pipe dreaming tho.

    I've heard Terry might be used as a trading chip to lure Rashard Lewis in a s-n-t, among others. I'm not opposing to moving JET but it has to be for the right deal. If you're trying to win a le NOW, there's really only 3 or 4 guys in the draft that would put you over the top, and Dallas isn't getting any of those guys.

    Two things Noah brings that Dallas definitely needs - some intensity and some testicles.

    lewis and Noah. Either of them gives us consistent low post scoring. No, no, and NO!

    Chad Ford the ESPN writer says that Noah is working harder than any recruit he's seen this year in preparation for the draft.

    amen. i don't think the focus should be on a point guard, that was not the issue. nowitzki jacking up threes in game 6 was the issue.

    Back to the basket guys are rare and valuable -- even damaged goods like Zach Randolph can get an $84 million max deal. And we're resigned to not getting any scoring from our centers since we need Diop and Damp against San Antonio - they allow us to get away without doubling Duncan all the time.

    If there's one common thread to the Miami and Golden State series, it's that what we got shredded by a perimeter player. Getting bigger at the PG position isn't a bad thing, IMO, after watching what Wade and Davis did to us. Both those series turned more on those guys playing at an unreal level than Dirk failing to meet expectations. Not saying Dirk didn't come up short, but the two guys on the other team he wasn't guarding had more to do with us losing.

    What the Mavs desperately need are intangibles. They've got plenty of talent, and if they are playing well they have a chance against anybody. The whole at ude by the fanbase of singling individuals out for team failures probably contributes to the yips they feel when the postseason rolls around.

    I don't think this team does well when they're in the role of the favorite. They were favored to beat Miami, they were favored to win the le after 67-15 and they didn't handle the pressure well. Until they beat San Antonio, nobody ever gave them a chance against the Spurs. Next year they'll return to underdog/not being taken seriously status, and that's where they thrive best.

    if the team is that frail mentally, that's not good.

    They're a really young team. I'm very hesistant to break up Howard and Dirk - we're set at forward for the next 6 years. It would have to be a slam-dunk no-brainer for me to part with either one of those. Not interested in a lateral move.

    This was this teams 3rd year in the playoffs with this current core. Youth had nothing to do with them being weak. It is just in their blood.

    Why doesn't Dallas give Dirk for KG? How would Dallas fans feel about that trade?

    no matter what I think Noah seriously sucks. I heard some people say that at best he will be like a Mark Madsen in this league.
