Lets be realistic and throw the players that are gonna go more than mid level exception. Because that is all we have to offer becasue of our cap situation. Unless we have something somebody else wants. Why didnt we cut ties with Finley and trade him last season when his stock wasnt so bad. Because we all know the Mavs could have gotten in on the Tracy Mcgrady trade he said he wanted to play for the mavs. We prolly could have gotten tmac for finley and walker or jamison and then we would have gotten another player from Orlando. Or we could have put something together to have gotten Vince Carter from Toronto last summer.

Which makes me think, are there any disgruntled stars in the league?

Ray Allen?

There's no were near the amount that there was last year

Also, here's some food for thought: Kevin Garnett

Yeah but Ray Allen is hitting the big 30. And Kevin Granett is 2 years older than Dirk he is gonna be 29.

already posted this but it thought i would put it in the official thread

my ideal offseason would be
---------------------------

re-sign Armstrong and Henderson for the minimum. (we need some continuity in the team)

Stackhouse + Daniels + Podkolzine for Redd s+t

Finley for Hardaway (exp. contract) or Tim Thomas (exp. contract) + a pick

Then in free agency i want

1) Gadzuric (or someone similar) 7.3ppg 8.3rpg 1.3bpg 22mpg
2) G.Lynch/Augman

Starters
--------

PG- Harris 6'3''
SG- Redd 6'6''
SF- Howard 6'7''
PF- Nowitzki 7'
C- Dampier 6'11''

Bench
------

PG- Terry 6'2''
SG- Lynch 6'8''/Augman 6'9''
SF- Thomas 6'10''
PF- Van Horn 6'10''
C- Gadzuric 6'11''

PG- Armstrong 6'1''
PF/C- Henderson 6'9''

That is a big strong team with 6 guys 6'9'' or more we can also match up a superstar of any position against a defensive stopper

Superstar PG's (Iverson, Francis, Arenas)- Harris, Armstrong
Superstar SG/SF's (McGrady, Bryant, James)- Howard, Lynch/Augman
Superstar PF/C (strong)(Duncan, Shaq, Yao) - Dampier
Superstar PF/C (fast)(Stoudamire, Garnett, Gasol) - Gadzuric

i like the george lynch/augman addition we badly need more toughness defensively an he can provide it

Dre™

I'm iffy on the Kwame Brown thing. We could be right, and all he needs is a change of scenery to be effective, but then again, if we're wrong, he's playing in a conference where he'll see an above average 4 every night. I don't know about that move, I'd rather go after veterans.

Like I said in the other thread, I like the idea of a Van Horn/Daniels for Artest deal...Maybe some kind of Allen s&t could be worked out to. I want to come out of this offseason with a second star player.

I saw the KG reference earlier, but I don't think Cuban thinks about it, because it's going to cost us Dirk, and after the season both had last year, on top of how Cuban feels about Dirk, he probably doesn't want to include him in a deal for anyone else outside of Duncan, James, Bryant or Mcgrady. I don't see any of that happening any time soon, so I don't see Dirk moving.

allen is hitting 30 which is NEVER a good time to max out a guard and we have living proof of tht on our roster. Redd is the way to go

Tersk

Good idea

No problems there, but if it came down to only one of them I'd keep Armstrong. Armstrong plays hard for whatever time he gets and is the type of face we not only need on the court, but in the locker room

Would Milwaukee do it? I mean, they cleared a bunch of cap room by trading KVH (TO US!). Maybe if it meant Cuban adding in some cash, or possibly putting in KVH for that big expiring contract

Finley's aging, but he's not as bad as you guys make him out to be. Both NYK players have expiring contracts so that'd make them hard to get, and we really have a white version of Tim Thomas in KVH. On the plus side, we get rid of fin's contract..but would NYK take it of course they would

Then in free agency i want

1) Good idea, Gadzuric or Reggie Evans would be a great addition to us

2) Good idea, a defensive minded veteran who does the dirty work. A taller Darrell Armstrong. Or maybe another shooter of the bench ala Kareem rush

Do you think Devin Harris would be ready to start, yet? See that SF/PF backups? Too soft IMO, we need some real bruisers to help our D. I'd make DJ MBenga 3rd stringer for PF and C so he gets PT

That is a big strong team with 6 guys 6'9'' or more we can also match up a superstar of any position against a defensive stopper

I likey

Great post

hendu is our bruiser and g.lynch is pretty big too 6'8'' 235 (similar size to lebron).

and on harris is HAS to be ready to start the offense runs so much better when we have a pure pg in there

i dunno if milwaukee would bite on tht but if redd looks like he is deffo gonna leave i think they might also if they give him a max deak they **** up their future as he isnt a max type player

if we acquired redd i would want to get rid of finley so redd and howard can both play 35mpg

finley is getting to the stage where he is aq below average sg starter i mean 36mpg 15ppg 4rpg 2apg on 42%fg thats TERRIBLE raja bell could do tht he is playing huge mins and just not producing also he is prone to moaning about shots he didnt look happy at the end of game 6 when he was on the bench tht could poison team morale in future cuz lets face it if he is still here he is gonna be on the bench ALOT

The Future7

OMG We need to get Dampier out of here while hes still has talent. Finley too. Their contracts are outrageously big. Too bad no one would take them.
