Sign and trade...

Avery Johnson is going to be in Dallas. Will definitely help out Nellie.

Starbury is a point. Cassell is a natural SG. Eh, doesn't matter though 'cause most players can swing different ways. Surprised by your picks over Nash. I would still put Kidd number one, but he's nowhere near as good as he was two years ago.

Paper due in two hours. Gotta revise it and see what happens. Better get an A. Eh, I'm not a writer anyway. At least not for books and such.

Will Stackhouse start? The answer is no. Harris will be starting point, we know that much. for the 2 and 3 spots, the pecking order is Finley, Marquis, Howard, and then Stackhouse. Well, maybe you could switch Howard and Stackhouse. Finely isn't a 3, but they put him there after he slumped late last season. My probable five are Harris, Marquis, Finley, Dirk, Laettner. For center, who else are we going to put? Really, start Bradley? Putting Fortson out there slows the game down by 20 mph. Although, you could have Marquis, Finley, Stackhouse, Dirk, Laettner. They ran alot of the offense through Marquis when he was on the court. He isn't a point, but he can push the ball. Eh. We'll see.

I still expect a trade of Stack or Walk for Jurt Thomas. Dirty inside player who can bring some D. With the leftovers, you can do a sign and trade for Dampier. He probably won't be as good as last year, but he is a big man with Western experience. Better than anything else we have. Moving both Stack and Walk would be a GM's dream. Imagine this starting five: Daniels, Finley, Dirk, Thomas, Dampier. I know, Dirk at the 3 is questionable, but it keeps him ready for jumpers. Other teams have been guarding him with SFs anyway, so why not push that back on them?

Eh, better start typing this paper. Internet on Monday or Tuesday. Yes. Finally.

Dampier may end up a Mav.

Stack, 'Tawn, and 'Toothpick' are our biggest liabilities --- they need to go.

Cassell played SG for 3 years, and two of those years H-town won it all --- I'll give you that. But ... Cassell has always been GREAT at getting everyone involved and then getting his. 'Starbury' gets his and then gets the rest ... maybe he doesn't have to pass since he has played with Penny the past two seasons. If I remember correctly, their assist/game are similar.

I imagine Fin-Dogg, Daniels, and Dirk will start. Harris won't --- Stack ... well, with Nelly anything is possible. I think Dirk will play the 4.

I could actually see us using Walker at center from time to time...he's not a natural 5 but didn't do too bad there last season, and might be better than Laettner.
