I agree that Jefferson alone would not vault the Mavs into favored status...only James or Wade could do that in one move.
But I also think that much of Jefferson's supposed defensive liabilities (though no one has taken the time to prove him to be a subpar defensive center thus far) would be negated by having Haywood behind him.
This team is 2 moves (not involving Wade or James) away...and I would be happy if Jefferson was one of those moves.

Best post in the thread.
This team was not good enough with Damp/Diop, or with an even better duo of Damp and Haywood with a better team surrounding them.
You need to have some low post scoring or the threat at least. It's not dumb, That is a huge weapon. Who was the last team to win it all without it? Perhaps Detroit, even then Sheed and co were able to provide more than we have.
