That's harsh, LRB. Walk may not be the right fit for this team but he is BY NO MEANS A CANCER.

MT it is harsh what I said, but I don't apologize. The Mavs went from being a hair's breadth of being the best team in the NBA last year, to being an also ran this year. They took major steps backwards in almost every category. And the great chemistry that they have exhibited over the past few years was crushed. All year long Walker hurt this team by trying to do far too much for his extremely limited talents. And while I concede that he might fit in with some other team possibly and be an asset, that he has done nothing but erode at the chemistry and play of the great team that he joined. Like any cancer he needs to be removed as soon as possible before he does any more damage or in the worst case scenario cause the death of this team by breaking up it's core. I wish him luck at his next stop, but I never want to see him in a Mavs uni again and would only be overjoyed to see him in street clothes tonight.
I am a Mavs fan and have been since day 1. I stayed a fan all through the dreadful 90's. It was terrific to see this team grow and have continued success over the past 4 seasons prior to this one. However the major step back the Mavs has been extremely painful to endure. IMO and by my observations Walker has been the player that has had the largest impact in causing this. He has dragged this team, which I love, down and I want nothing more than to see his back as he exits. I wish him luck on his next team, but do not want to see him adversely affect the Mavs any more.

GREAT POST! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
Actually, LRB, I think Nellie is the Mastermind behind Walker's "Cancerous" effect on this team. Had Nellie nipped this thing in the bud and had WALKER be the 6th man instead of Jamison, then perhaps things might have been slightly different....a few more wins here and there....Home Court advantage.....
But alas, Nellie is an epic Moron so he helped Walker's "Cancerous" presence fester until the team was TERMINALLY ILL......
The Cure? Just like any other cancer.....REMOVE IT.
