Chandler to Mavs instead

[benji]

It was a good trade because they saved a few million dollars with Damp's insta-expiring. Its a shame they couldn't dump Diaw, but Calderon's contract is also toxic.

It's an awful trade for the Lolcats because Najera and Carroll's contracts still have a couple years on them, and so they'll be paying more in the long run, then they would for Chandler, who only has one year left.

Are you responding to yourself?

[Lamrock]

Yeah. I am much wiser than I was 36 hours ago, at least when it comes to this particular trade.

[benji]

I suppose that's similar to people who don't realize the Cavaliers eliminate almost every single contract off their books by the next Presidential Election and thus spend a lot of time discussing Mo Williams and Antwan Jamison as the "core."

I hate the Mavs' moves so far. Go and get Dirk a co-star ffs.

[Jackal]

Yeah, stars are just laying around joining eachother right...like a Wade, James and Bosh combo.

Oh wait...

The only way the Mavs get a superstar is if New Orleans suddenly makes Chris Paul available. That ain't happening.

Now, the Mavs are collecting assets for the very slim chance Paul does become available near the deadline, if the Hornets are horrible. Even then, it probably isn't happening.

Still, they're laughing their asses off at Michael Jordan, who basically increased his payroll for no reason in particular.

Still bad choices. Dallas dont have any great centers. Chandler has an All-Time Injury Having Players Team.

[Martti.]

Chandler has an All-Time Injury Having Players Team.

Chandler owns a team of players with injuries throughout history?

[rise]

...or are you trying to say he's on one...?

[Andrew]

And even then it's not an entirely fair label, as he's appeared in around 80% of his teams' games during the course of nine year career. The last couple of years haven't been kind to him though.
