    I agree that he's probably not a guy Morey is looking at. There has always been something very Patrick Ewingish in Jefferson's game to me, its not just the nose.

    If we traded for Al and Scola wasn't included somehow he'd be our backup 5. How much is too much for a backup?

    I say let the Mavs take him. They just signed Haywood for about 9 mill a year so why not let them add 13+ mill a year to the same position? They're in a bad cap situation already with old talent, wht not just let them dig an even deeper hole? I think Jefferson is a good player but I would rather wait than just throw something at him so quickly.

    He is a move sideways. Tore an ACL slowed down. Has similar numbers to what Scola can put up for less money. Let Dallas get him and mess their cap space up as they get older and worse.
