Moving on...

2009 1st round pick.
Dallas Lineup:
O'Neal / Damp
Dirk / Bass
Parker / Singleton / Green
Wright / Terry / Green
Kidd / Barea
We finally get a guy who can score in the low post. We also get an outside shooter who can defend and combine that with Wright slashing, Kidd directing, and Dirk being Dirk and you have a very nice starting lineup. Not to mention our bench looks really good. I think fans could really get behind this team. You have everything you need to win a championship AND we get a 1st rounder
Toronto Lineup:
Diop / Voshkul
Bosh / Bargnani
Howard / Moon
Kopono / Stackhouse
Calderon / Solomon
They improve their team as well. They now have their coveted swingman in Howard and a defensive Center to play alongside Bosh. They also get to keep Bargnani while adding veteran grit in Stackhouse and a little youth in Williams.

I do the JO version of the deal as well. An added bonus is about 42M in former Eastern All-Star contracts between JKidd and JO will be on the outs, which should definitely allow us to throw our hat in the ring for 2010, or if we prefer, 2009.
