RE:Jamison must go
Jamison is probably the Mavs most consistent player lately. On offense he does what the Mavs suck at (offensive rebounding and low post scoring), and he runs the floor well enought to keep up with the Mavs. He fits in really well with the big three, and at times when Jamison is on the floor the Mavs look like last year's Mavs plus an inside scoring option. Both AJ and Walker are horrible on defense, so the attributes we should use to compare them should be offensive abilities and effect on team chemistry and game flow. I think it's obvious that Walker is hurting this team on offense. The point forward crap is a stupid gimmick, and it is only useful because we don't have a respectable backup point. Mabye if Nellie would stick with Best instead of using Delk in combo with Walker to handle the backup point duties, we would have a decent backup point.
We should have never done the Boston trade. Delk and Walker cause Nellie's insanities to manifest themseleves. AJ, Jiri, and Fort were the perfect additions to last year's team, and Nick was not a big subtraction. Without Walker. Without Delk.
