That what all this is about. I don't think anyone has said it's completely impossible that the Mavs could get Billups. As I said, I laid out the possibility of a sign and trade earlier in the thread.
I noticed that you said that. That's true. But I also noticed that other people used language like "100% impossible," or something like that, that Billups could end up here.

I'll agree that it's highly unlikely that Billups ends up here. Yet, I also see how it could happen. And I also think that giving Billups a max contract would be tantamount to "breaking the bank."
