It's official, the two-headed monster is back in Dallas

Looks like we used the MLE on him too... good thing IMO, cuz I think we can get better value at the 2/3 spot with the trading chips we have (Stack, JET, Jones, George if he resigns), rather than to add yet another 2/3 spare with the MLE.

Quote of the Day from Diop: "I’ve got to run the floor," Diop said, "and get my hands up for these easy buckets." -- Yes Diop, you do... finishing those is all we ask for on the offensive end.

Would have rather...

Sign and traded for Diop, and used the MLE on James Posey, but it is what it is I guess…

I find

that Posey would have been pretty tough to get here for

A: just the MLE
B: to the Mavs, considering that Boston, San Antonio, Cleveland etc. all seem to be better options than Dallas right now. Posey is a tricky situation, only because like Maggette, he will want to be on a team thats contending right now, and on paper, those other teams have a better shot of contention than Dallas does.

would sooo much rather have

Maggette than Posey. I think we should have really gone after Maggette if possible.

I like Diop and maybe he improves this year under Carlisle.

With GS

offering way more than the MLE to Maggette, there was no way we could get him here. Unless we do a sign and trade for him though.
