    That's a fair deal for Al Jeff in this market

    MOREY! GO GET IAN MAHINMI!

    9 and 7 off the bench with a 3.3 DBPM. That is a steal.

    And with the Pacers throwing money at fat Al, we can snag him up. He's our rim protector.

    Agree 100%. Seems like an average deal at best

    From my mouth:

    The worst thing you can do is build around a 39 year old German mummy with chronically injured players.

    Jefferson's deal is for 3 years. He is often injured, he can't play D pass run the floor and he is a ball stopper. There is also danger he will eat his way out of the league over the length of that contract.

    agreed.
    But i dn' t think he will sign for a bargain after the year he had.

    Mavs beat writer Dwain Price is having a "mini-meltdown" :grin:

    Now that is odd, I'd go after big game first. Marvin won't produce the same numbers.

    Dwain Price looks like the middle aged version of the "I feel it" kid.

    Already trying to outdo last offseason's rant about how his wife committed to him 20+ years ago in marriage and tried to equate that to DJ fleecing them.

    The Rox are light years ahead of where the Mavs find themselves this morning - they still have a young star to try to build around. The Mavs have a rapidly aging Dirk and Wes Matthews. Parsons is gone. DWill is gone. They lost Chandler last year while chasing Jordan. They have no bonafide PG, SF & C yet all you heard up here was Plan A (Whiteside) & Plan B (Batum) with the tone being that they were in the driver's seat. They even used another ridiculous cartoon in their presentation to Whiteside. No, I'm laughing at their arrogance and hubris which has served them so well up to this point.

    Quote Dwain Price: "It’s a mystery why top free agents haven’t joined the Mavericks". Comedy doesn't get this good.
