I don't know mates, but I'd say this team is already on par with last year's team if not better.
PG: Collison is better than Kidd in terms of athleticism though Kidd performs better in clutch and is smarter. (With RC running the show, "smarter" ain't much of a problem)
I'd say Collison wins this one especially if he keeps improving through the season.
Back/ups: West?/Jared/Jones > West/Jones (This Jared guy looks like someone waiting to explode with the right playing time, team and coaching)
2013 > 2012 in PG position
SG: This is the area where the Mavs regressed. Losing Terry was big and they now need a good shooter to replace him. Carter can do it in bursts but they need a more consistent, younger SG. (OJ, Lee - Having OJ fitting the bill of the JET role better)
D.Jones/Booby/Carter/West? < JET/Booby/Carter West
2013<2012 in SG
SF: Trix is still Trix albeit older but he will have help now in J.Crowder. Been watching vids of this guy and he has a good stroke from 3, and seems to be hard worker and a guy willing to do the dirty work. He is Metta World Peace without the psycho tendencies.
2013>2012 in SF
PF: Dirk is Dirk, Wright has room to improve, and if they sign Elton Brand. Beastin!!! (Fuck Lamar Odom)
2013 = 2012 in PF, if Brand is signed and Wright gets some more meat then
2013 >> 2012
C: Well guys...i will take Kaman over Wood 10 times out of 5. Ian's gone but we have Sgt. james..So...
2013>2012, with Brand 2013 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 2012
