    And here I was happy with the Rashard and the Felton news :(

    Nelson isn't great, but he pretty much fills that hole at PG for them.

    Ok, THIS actually does upset me. I think Nelson is a great acquisition for them.

    Nelson is at best, a backup at this point in his career

    LOL "uptempo"?

    Lets be realistic here. Among Jameer Nelson, Raymond Felton, and Devin Harris only Harris can be considered as an "uptempo" guard.

    Not impressed...

    But I am interested to see what Dallas will be on the court this season. As much as I hate to say it, 53-55 wins wouldn't surprise me one bit.

    I wish the Rockets went for Nelson.

    Hopefully Monta will hog the ball, and frustrate the others despite his scoring prowess.

    I just can't understand after watching the playoffs versus Portland, how Morey didn't plug up our holes this offseason. How are the Mavs signing quality role players while we're going out our way to resign Joey Dorsey. This offseason exposed Morey

    People just love names around here.

    Nelson is washed up and gives up more points than he scores

    This. I've never seen so much complaining about "missing out" on a whole bunch of nobodies like I have this summer.

    Too much 2K and people that don't have league pass.

    They'd probably want Gilbert Arenas.
