"the big Three" have peaked (except Dirk obviously), Finley might even be regressing because his athleticism is the very thing that made Finley, Finley . . . and Nash is 29 and his career has already been injury riddled! Whats best for the Mavs is to sell high (which means moving players before they regress to far) . . . however it takes more than a measly 5 games to be able to have a valid opinion one way or another!

To be honest, I don't think the 'big 5' will ever gel the way that Nellie intended. I honestly think that it's foolish to have this many top notch scoring options on one team especially when all of them are average defenders at best. What will happen? The team will often look out of sync and the better options will sometimes struggle to get shots even when they're desperately needed. Plus, the team will just continue to struggle defensively until Nellie decides that it's 'ok' to play players such as Bradley.
I didn't think this team would gel like Nellie intended before the season, and I don't think so now. However, as far as trades go, I do believe it's a little early to decide who fits and who doesn't. But, if someone knocks you off your feet with a great offer, it's not too early to pull the trigger.
