    Don't sign him. Don't pick him up on waivers either.

    I don't think will anyway. This team needs a defensive rebounding big man. Dmo will solve the interior scoring problems and a trade for Tyson Chandler will solve the defensive rebounding and overall interior defensive problems

    Stephenson would be incredible , but he's not playing anywhere like he was in Indiana . Frankly , it's not worth it to take on his character risk . But he's definitely better than Ennis and brown

    Isn't he playing decently this year?

    I would take him over Bobby and Tyler no question.

    I want a Tyson trade bad. This team will look A LOT better with him at the C spot. Especially on D and the boards

    Man I feel you. He's the perfect piece, honestly. If we had Tyson instead of Dwight we would have been better off, he knows his role.
    A second driving factor, you know every Mavs fan hates that Cuban lost Tyson TWICE, I would love to ruffle their jimmies. (Figuratively)

    I would love to Sign and Trade DMO to the Suns as I think that helps them too.

    However back on topic, I don't think Lance offers us anything that we don't already have. I think he would turn into Brewer #2.

    He's 34 I believe. He's got a lot of juice left in those legs too. He's averaging 13 rebounds a game so far and I believe he's had 2 18 rebound games as well

    I don't think he wants to be apart of a rebuild like PhX and I've heard reports saying they are open to trading him. No idea if legit or now. COD would definitely know.

    If this happens... nice!

    Capela, not playing against starters, automatically becomes better. I'd limit Chandler's minutes to ~18/game though. Chandler's contribution would help Clint and NeNe.

    He can easily play 20-23 minutes

    Tyson Chandler is very available. Suns were open to trading him the second half of last year.

    As always, we just need to stay around .500 until the trade deadline.

    Looking at his career stats now, agreed. Dude is younger than I thought. Only 2 seasons with the Mavs surprised me. He's playing very well with 13+ rebs/gm. His putrid career block numbers are also surprising.

    Would be a great addition!!

    If Stephenson means Brewer is no longer in the conversation, I'll take him.
