    Am I the only one surprsed that Dalembert keep getting these team options picked up? The fact that he can still make millions goes to show you that that the Rockets price for Asik was quite fair.

    I think Fisher really wants to keep him to run the triangle. This move gives them an experienced PG capable of doing just that. Dumping Felton on Cuban was the icing on the cake.

    I'm just shocked they got rid of Felton. Maybe Jackson does work miracles... but then again... Knicks team got older... again.

    Cuban knows the Rockets are a threat.

    "you look at how their playoff runs went"

    How were the Heat playoff runs before LeBron came?

    Rick Carlisle is a top five coach. Of course there aren't many coaches who are better.

    They won a title with Dwyane Wade and Shaq who pretty much never played in the finals.
    Irrelevant, but they've had success before.

    Also I think, especially in the East, Wade and Bosh + a better bench without LeBron would still make it pretty deep in the East every year.

    Well, it sounds really good when Cuban, the Mavs organization and their radio talking heads repeat it ad nausem but I wonder just how many season tickets this will sell. Last year I believe the Cuban/Mavs' slogan was "Dirk's not done yet!" so this must be their official 2014-15 slogan for the MFFLs.
