Cowgirls were raped tonight by the nets. Harris scored 41pts along with 13 dishes. Kidd didn't do bad either, scored 17pts. But D.Harris was scoring on Kidd at will. Blew by him left and right. IZOD center was chanting "Thank you Cuban" Yall should see Cuban's face after D.Harris made his shots. Priceless.
im so glad they made that trade. i hated devin's guts when he was a mav but now that he's on a different team i can appreciate how good a player he is and will become.
What's up with PGs blowing up when they leave Dallas? Nash goes from good to MVP x 2 and now Harris goes from decent to possible All Star. Is it possible for us to trade Rafer to Dallas for one season with the chance he will return to Houston as a 20/10 guy who shoots 48%?
I couldn't stand Harris and all his flopping on the mavs, but I sure love watching him play on the nets. I especially love watching him torch the mavs while on the nets.
I don't care how much he tries to take credit for Harris' emergence (almost the instant he left Dallas), Avery Johnson was way too hard on him. Some players are "coach killers". In this case, Avery Johnson was a "player killer", at least with Devin Harris.
The Mavs traded away their future and their present isn't that great either. Simply put, they are screwed.
One of the more moronic trades Cuban has made in quite a while. Kid can play. He definitely didn't start out this way, but he's playing better and better on his way to possibly becoming a perennial all-star.
Cuban has always been a lousy owner in terms of basketball-related decision-making. He compensates for it by paying up the butt in luxury tax.
System change has alot to do with it. Nash didn't become great as soon as went to Phoenix and lose his game as soon as Dantoni left. He just fit perfectly with that system, he's the same guy he was in Dallas. Players can't improve that much at 30. Devin's game was really shackled up by Avery, he went to a crappy team that really gives alot of freedom on offense.
while i dont like the mavs or cuban there is no arguing that he, as an owner, has been great for that franchise. BUT the guy has always had this quick trigger to pull any and every trade possible and make trades to stay relevant and that was his down fall I believe. A few years ago the team was loaded and slowly through trades and bad FA deals the team crumbled. thats all on cuban even funnier thing right now? if the playoffs started today the nets would be in and dallas would be out. I hate harris but i am soo glad he isnt on the mavericks anymore, the guy would always torch the rockets.
