Funny from dirks interview. Gatorade cooler... Gatorade sounds like a good nickname for Lamar.

DN: Well, it kind of didn't look good there at all when Tyson left, and J.J. left, but then I think we did some nice moves. I think the Lamar move came out of nowhere. I don't think nobody saw that coming. We got Lamar basically for a Gatorade cooler, or a trade exception -- I don't even know what that is. So I think that was another great move by Mark and Donnie (Nelson, the Mavs' general manager). At least we got some players who are experienced, and want to win, and want to play off each other. So we're trying to keep that going, what we started last year. But it's going to be a tough year.
