I like Desmond Mason's game quite a lot, actually. I don't know what the guy a few posts above me is thinking (probably has Mason confused with someone else?) but Mason is actually a pretty darn good defender and rebounder. He doesn't historically shoot very well, but I'd say he's about as good (if not more consistent) a scorer as Stack and is FAR less injury-prone (not to mention a few years younger). I think he'd be a GREAT fit for us next year, and if he has to replace Stack, I'd be okay with that.

The biggest losses for us in "exchanging" Stack for Mason would be the balls-out last-second shooting that Stack brings, and the fact that Mason is not a three-point shooting threat AT ALL.
