With the Nets looking to talk to Dallas

[d-blockrep2]

Do not be surprised the Nets don't talk to the Mavs about Kidd, if I was Thorn, I would look into the possibility of trading Maglorie andCollins for Erick Dampier and Ager . The trade works well for both Mavs and the Nets, Mavs get rid of a 3yr contract, yes we do gain a 3yr contract but Dampier is a more than capable shot blocker and scorer than Collins and Maglorie. Imagine, Dampier and Sean Williams defending the basket.</p>

Other than Dampiers ugly contract, we gain a rebounder who rebounds all the time and also get a much needed extra SG who is talented for being so down in the depth.</p>

 

[GMJ]

Why would the Mavs do this?</p>

[d-blockrep2]

The reason why the Mavs would do this deal is that Dampier is expensive and Avery Johnsonis happy with the increasing play of Diop and Brass. By doing this trade they get two short term contracts, Maglorie expires at the end of the season and Collins ends next season. Collins can still be used a backup center, defensively his still solid and does the little things all coaches love.</p>

 

[Belarus]

Is Collins heading for a rase in the salary after his contract expired? Can we afford him?</p>

 

[GMJ]

Can we afford Jason Collins? I'm going to go cry now :-(</p>

He can score, and isa fast-breaking guard.</p>

He can drive to the hoopwith high speed, and make the shots.</p>

He is a complement to Marcus.</p>

Why not ?</p>

Marcus is slower, Harris is much faster.</p>

But Marcus is a good playmaker, while Harris is not.</p>

No way in hell they're gonna give up dampier for those 2 scrubs.</p>

 

[Dark Defender]

Collins needs to be a backup C. Having him start for us 4 years now makes the Nets look like a joke. Even if he does bring those "little things" from a pure psychological factor you aren't intimidating anybody.</p>
