MT .... "Was NVE the 6th man of the mavs?" ...in essence, yes

JAY-C and LRB ... "As for Nick the quick from Nellie we can't afford a 17.5 million dollar backup. " ...actually what Nellie said was that we couldnt afford to pay that much to a BACKUP PG - I think he had concluded that the Mavs couldnt afford to retain NVE as the 6th man cause the size problems were killing the Mavs, and he couldnt justify the big money to do what Best is doing only better .... LRB, re Jamison, the concept of "6th man" really involves using a starter off the bench. I think the difference is the inside presence and rebounding of Jamison opposed to the size of NVE as a backup. Size matters in the NBA.
