This team will still have issues even if we do get Deron.

Or maybe Deron realizes this himself and chooses not to sign here.
The Mavs would still have major issues if they had Tyson. Their back court is completely toast. It's just done, simple as that.

So you'd have Tyson AND Haywood, Marion, Dirk...and....and...what?

You can say that you amnesty Haywood all you want, and maybe they will, but it's not like you don't have to pay him. To us, amnestying just means taking him off the cap. To Cubes it means paying someone a considerable amount of money to play for someone else.

This team achieved its pinnacle RIGHT before hit went over a cliff. The Mavs had a tough choice to make, and we still have to wait for this offseason to see the result of that decision.

Personally, I'm not sure how anyone could watch Kidd and Jet (and Dirk, honestly) and still pine for Tyson. What I pine for right now is a dynamic, two way superstar. THAT'S what this team needs to play alongside Dirk.
