In the Stillness of the vacuum right now a Q: Would You Do a Trade for This Guy?

Sure and then I'd offer Tim Duncan a max deal.

That b sweet to land both Dirk and Timmy.

 

if we had a team ready to win next year, absofreakinglutely!

 

He is older than Pau Gasol. Great player but he is brings us no closer to contending than Pau would. I vote no.

 

Oh so true...it was like the spark had gone away-still great, but was tough

 

How do I rep someone?

 

"in the same division" means absolutely nothing in basketball

 

Wht don't we sign karl malone out of retirement while were at it...

 

Finally someone agrees with me Divisions mean nothing, besides top 3 seedings. It's not like MLB or NFL.

That said, the point still stands. Wouldn't trade Dirk to Houston because of the rivalry, but not just because it makes someone in your division better

 

he is still better than anyone we have..

 

True PF, pass. He isn't tweeny enoguh for my taste.

 

Yeah no thanks, doubt it would be worth it to try to pry Dirk from Dallas anyways. Plus you forget we aren't going anywhere fast so getting rid of our *assets* for players who are past their prime wouldn't do any good unless we were getting some else in return. Which also would deplete our *assets* in the first place.

 

Absolutely NOT. I am not even factoring in bias right now.

THe only reason the Mavs trade him is because they don't think they can build a championship team around him being the centerpiece.

What makes you think the Rockets can do that with arguably worse players than the Mavs?

If we had a star in place than of course you trade for him, but not without some foundation
