    A deal that WAS discussed today but I'm now told is unlikely to happen featured Houston's Aaron Brooks and Battier to Portland for Camby

    see..how the hell do we have to trade 2 NBA starters for Camby, but Dallas can probably trade some garbage time guy and a pick for him..blows my mind

    Do they really need another center in Dallas?

    Glad this isn't happening.

    Why would Dallas go after Camby?

    Chandler, Haywood, Nowitzki & now Camby?

    :confused:

    Hell no. Getting Camby means pushing for the playoffs. We can't do that with Bud playing in Battier's place. Please don't suggest T-Will, because we know that ain't gonna happen.

    I wanted Camby a couple years ago, but he is no longer a good match for us.

    Marcus Camby is nearing retirement at age 36. Dallas is a much better fit for him.

    You can never have too much size, especially when the team they'd probably have to get by in the west is the Lakers, a team with a ton of size.

    Why does Dallas try to grab every center possible when they already have two good options. They were looking at Nene, and now Camby? Cuban just does this for the sake of being a douche.

    because cuban can give other GMs large amounts of cash and a bj under the table.
