KG to the Mavs... What Dallas SHOULD do!

[Poollit]

Now for my insight on this mess. I do not believe this trade would be a good trade, giving up an all-star and a player who should/ve been an all-star for the all-star MVP doesn't add up, especially when you're left with very little backcourt depth. This would be very bad for the T-wolves, because now that they've traded Joe Smith, they're left with Rasho, Ervin, Marc (Mark???) Jackson and that Woods guy. That's a bunch of players, who minus Rasho who is a good back up type player, are decent third string power forwards and centers. They are in the Western confererence and would get absolutley demolished in the paint by every playoff team, even some non-playoff teams like the Clippers (Brand) and the Grizzlies (Gasol.) Now you look at their guard situation. You've got an unhappy Troy Hudson and Sam Cassell, they're gonna be pissed and your chemistry is completely shot. And that's if Brandon and Strickland don't resign! Then if Svery Johnson gets thrown in it's terrible. They would now have at least 4 point guards, and not enough big men, plus Szrerbiak (yeh it's spelt wrong) will continue to have to play at the SF where he doesn't really belong. Unless Finley plays there, but he doesn't really belong there either.
And now from the Mavs perspective. Why trade away two of the fan favourites, would they be trying to pull a George Shinn? Have the leagues seconds most dedicated and energetic fans (behind Sac-town) against you isn't goingt o help you at all. Now they would be left with starting Van Exel (not a bad thing, but worse than Nash, no I'm not saying that because I'm Canadian, speaking of which it's Canada Day) and someone like Raja Bell, or Taruq Abdul-Wahad. This would give them a huge weakness at, arguably, the most talented position in the league on average. Again we go to see what kinds of players they'd be having to guard, Kobe, Bonzi, Richardson, Allen and Q and Corey on the Clips. It's the same situation as Minny, but flipped. This means that the two teams that would be trading would be overstocking one area on the court, while leaving dangerous holes in the other. This just weakens both teams for areas of strength in the West.

Nice! Why didn't I just say that instead of D inside will be bad and outside...etc. etc. LOL. Good Colin

lol if you guys are that ridiculous enough to think iwould think KG would only average 3 rebounds per game, then i guess your the ones needing help for thinking that lol. But I can see how u thought that slash was a divide sign, sorry, but I thought whoever would be bright enough to imply I mean 3 or 4, next time I'll remember that

I though you meant the fraction 3/4, as in 3/4 of 12 is 9 and he would average 3/4 (9) less rebounds. Usually things like that are written 3-4.

Hate to say it, but you're a jackass, a forum is for sharing opinions. That's exactly what I did. And I expanding ideas so people like you (or maybe people that don't speak english as a first language, I don't know if you do) don't misunderstand and fill the topic up with "wtf does that mean???"'s. Understand?

I take back what I said, because I just realize having KG, despite losing their creator Steve Nash, would be better? The Mavericks will have even better and more open 3point shots and jumpers, and shoot a higher percentage because of Garnett and him drawing double teams easily. They'd get more inside baskets as well as more free throw attempts!

And with Dirk's post game improving rapidly, KG & Dirk would be the 2nd best one two punch behind Shaq & Kobe, as well as having Nick Van Exel. But they would need to add another gaurd or two! Good ones at that.
