I hate to say it but when things don't go quite our way, we choke. We settle for way way too many jumpers. Our defense suffers considerbly. It seems to be a pychological thing that the Mavs have when they are losing or the refs are against them or what not. If we can rise above that, we'll have a title no problem and I don't think there are many players out there that are going to make that big a difference (obviously without trading the whole team away).
I dunno if Cassell will help, but I think he has more potential to help the Mavs win a title immediately than JJB does.

Again, I'm not saying it'd be a good move 3 years down the road--just that Cassell could be counted on a playoff-type situation more than JJB could right now.
