The New Season.

GM Plans.
1)Trade-a-lot. Dirk has to go. So does Kidd, Dampier, Terry, Stackhouse. This will take down teams chemistry but I don't see future for this team.
2) Need new, young stars!
3) .. and hope Cuban won't kill me..

IMO i would keep Dirk unless you get a superstar, trade Kidd, Howard for Arenas

Kevin Martin leads Sacramento to 110-93 victory

Mark Cuban exploded in the stands while sitting in his teams first game against Sacramento.
"I will fire them all!!!" he shouted.
And maybe this time he is right. 32 points for Nowitzki but it still wasn't good enough. Sacramento were just clicking. 39 assists for a team - that is huge. 15 for Udrih and he got a double double.
Kevin Martin was on fire, scoring 32 points and grabbing 7 rebounds. Good game for Garcia. He had 22 points.
There will be changes..
The new Dallas GM said that anyone could be traded away every moment. If we'll have a decent offer they can pack their bags.
We had a little chat with Dirk after the game.

Interviewer: How you feel about your game?
Nowitzki: Well.. As a team we can do so much better.
Interviewer: So where was the problem?
Nowitzki: Definitely defense. Our and their. We couldn't get past them.
Interviewer: How do you feel about the new GM? He is saying that nobody is safe.
Nowitzki: I'm not thinking about being or being not traded. Some change will come but I have to play as good as I can.

Nice to see the association with my roster! Hope you reach some success with Mavs. They really have a great, strong team, but they struggling to reach their full potencial in real life. On paper they are probably the second best team in the west.

Nowitzki leads his team to victory

Nowitzki's 41 led Dallas to 112-104 victory over Memphis. The team was great in the second half. However a very poor effort from downtown. Rick Carlisle was very happy after the game.
He said - We ran a bit more play for Dirk and it payed off. He had a great scoring night.
O.J. Mayo was leading Memphis in scoring (35 pts). Warrick had 22 + 12 rebounds - a great night for him too.
Mayo said - They were scoring great. Dallas did a great job containing Rudy. Usually he scores a lot more than 8 points.
Rudy Gay had 8pts, 8rebs and 6 assists.
Mark Cuban was happy after the win.
Dallas GM - It was a good game. I'm starting to see why fans love Nowitzki so much!

Quick Interview with Nowitzki.

Interviewer: How was the game!?
Nowitzki: I feel terrific! Thanks to my team. They really believed in me!
Interviewer: Look like your coach run play for you all the time!
Nowitzki: Well, after the game against Sacramento, we had a talk. He said he'll give me the ball while I was scoring. Today I scored a lot!
Interviewer: Are you more sure about your place in the team now?
Nowitzki: You never can be 100% sure. Brandon (Bass) had a good game. And I'm really happy for him.

Thanks. Still I'm not quite sure that I want to keep some guys. The teams quite fine while Nowitzki is on a hot streak

Dallas GM's thoughts

I got some trade proposals.
1) Kidd for J. O'Neal - while he was in Indiana he played good, but now.. No, that's not it.
2) Nowizki for R. Allen - Allen can hit the 3's. Nowitzki also. No deal.
3) Terry for G. Wallace or J. Crawford - Wallace is an all star material sad but I got Howard. Jamal is quite a scorer. He could be a good starter while Wright isn't much these last games. I should think about it.

Brandon Bass should start the game. Dampier is getting old.

J.R. Smith is on the block.

Antoine Wright isn't showing much of a game.

J.R. Smith is on the block..try to get him,he's really good in the game
