RE: Dallas/ Utah Trade for AK47
No thanks. Switch potato for Bradley and Daniels for Howard and I would do it.
Dallas trades:
SF Antawn Jamison (14.1 ppg, 6.5 rpg, 1.3 apg in 28.6 minutes)
PF Danny Fortson (2.8 ppg, 4.8 rpg, 0.0 apg in 11.8 minutes)
SG Marquis Daniels (4.1 ppg, 0.7 rpg, 0.8 apg in 6.5 minutes)
Dallas receives:
C Greg Ostertag (6.3 ppg, 9.3 rpg, 1.9 apg in 29.9 minutes)
SF Andrei Kirilenko (17.4 ppg, 7.7 rpg, 3.1 apg in 36.3 minutes)
Change in team outlook: +2.7 ppg, +5.0 rpg, and +2.9 apg.
Utah trades:
C Greg Ostertag (6.3 ppg, 9.3 rpg, 1.9 apg in 29.9 minutes)
SF Andrei Kirilenko (17.4 ppg, 7.7 rpg, 3.1 apg in 36.3 minutes)
Utah receives:
SF Antawn Jamison (14.1 ppg, 6.5 rpg, 1.3 apg in 18 games)
PF Danny Fortson (2.8 ppg, 4.8 rpg, 0.0 apg in 12 games)
SG Marquis Daniels (4.1 ppg, 0.7 rpg, 0.8 apg in 11 games)
Change in team outlook: -2.7 ppg, -5.0 rpg, and -2.9 apg.
TRADE ACCEPTED
edit: To add realgm's approval of the deal. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] We would have to wait until December 15th because of Daniels being a rookie.

RE:Dallas/ Utah Trade for AK47
Id do it. Ostertag is slightly better then bradley and Andrei is a better defensive player then Jamison without being an offensive liability. I like the thug image that Fortson gives us, bradley would never foul some one on his ass on the way to the hoop. I might not sure if Id give up howard either.

RE: Dallas/ Utah Trade for AK47
I don't think we are willing to give up what it will take to get Kirilenko to be honest. He still has tremendous upside (has proven that his first two seasons and continuing to prove that now).
Utah is not going to give us their #1 option and their Center... heck they wouldn't give that to anyone right now.

RE:Dallas/ Utah Trade for AK47
Dirkenstein, I would not do your trade. We don't gain enough to be worth the risk of a trade. We're better to stay where we are instead of start over with jelling. Also this doesn't fill any fundamental needs for the Mavs. At best it increase the talent at at a couple of positions fro the price of a very promising rookie. At worst we lose a promising rookie and are worse at 2 positions to boot. The risk/reward ratio is not worth it.
U2 I might do yours. It does fill a need. We would have 2 7 footers besides Dirk to play center. AK 47 gives us good return for Jamison, not as good as Jamison is now IMO, but could potentially be better. But we fill an important need so the risk reward is much better.

You're probably right Sike. But 1st I look at a trade to see if it will help us more than hurt us. And even many of the trades that Utah probably wouldn't do because of how high they are on AK, would still hurt the Mavs more than help.

RE:Dallas/ Utah Trade for AK47
I thought Ostertag was coming up on the end of his contract and wanted to head to Dallas- why would we trade for him, and why would Utah take on Fortson?

Because their Fan base would love it. Utah borders upon Idaho and many of the Jazz fans live there, and as you know Idaho is know for its Potatos. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Utah knows they might not land Ostertag this summer which may help to persuade them to trade him even more because this way they could get Bradley whom they have shown interest in and who already has a house up in Utah.
Kirilenko does not address our need down low but he does give us great defense, size, and athleticism while also providing scoring skills on offense. AK47 and dirk would be lethal together but we would still have the log jam at the 4 with Walker and Dirk.

Which trade are your referring to? "this trade" is highly ambigious since at least 2 have been mentioned in this thread that involve AK and AJ.
As for comparing AK to AJ, AJ has a higher career scoring average and a higher career rebounding average.

my bad lrb. I would do either trade, the second one is a steal for us. Yes, Jamison has a higher career avg, but that's because AK is young and is just now becoming a star.

to be sure, AK is having a great year and there is no reason to think it is only an apparition, but no way the JAZZ part with this guy..they think hes theri future...nice thought, but not gonna happen.....unless we get stupid....and in the long run, AK may be a more complete player than AJ....that is yet to be seen!

If it came down to Utah offering Kirilenko for Jamison..would you accept or decline? Kirilenko would absolutely be more valuable to our team than Jamison from my perspective...i would take him over Jamison any day regardless if Jamison is a more complete player now or not

one major atvantage in AJ's favor in my mind,is his post game....AK has not really developed one yet.....or not to the extent that AJ has....that may be enough to wing me in Jamison's favor....but not going to spend too much time pondering this one...it aint gonna happen!

obviously its very likely this trade isnt going to happen and it seems as though no one in particular has rumored this trade to possess a legitimate chance of materializing, rather it was a technique devised to see who you would rather have on you team right now at this very moment when given the opportunity to choose between Jamison or AK.... you chose Jamison.
A more suitable preference through my perspective would be to take Kerilenko, his tough defense both out near the perimeter as well as down low outweigh Jamison's post game tremendously and I would hope after considering this you would ponder the fact that we are not in need of an offensive attribute as such Jamison's post game provides more so we could advantagely benefit from the Solid D that Kerilenko provides.
Still though, if you prefer an offensive attribute over a defensive one on our team right now then that is your choice, however, it is not what the Mavericks are in need of to make themselves a more competitive team and strive for a championship.

RE:Dallas/ Utah Trade for AK47
I don't do a straight up Jamison for AK (with the requisite filler spares) trade. I'll admit that AK might be better than AJ. But it's no sure thing. But is he that much better now, no, not IMO. What do I mean by that much. I mean is AK enough better to off set setting the Mavs back in their jelling. Pluse AK hurts the Mavs postup game. We're not great, but AJ is our best postup option. AK as has been pointed out earlier isn't as far advanced as AJ there. This trade fulfills no major need for the Mavs. It sets them back this year. At some point you have to stop the trades that will give you a chance next year to win it all and decide that come hell or high water that you will focus on winning this year. IMO we've got a better chance for a ring this year with AJ than with AK.

RE:Dallas/ Utah Trade for AK47
jamison is an all around player, he has defense, can score and he is a team player, AK will try to do everything by himself unless he knows he wont be able to score on that possesion. i dont think we have a better chance with AJ than AW, i think walker will help us since he has got the playoff experience, jamison might fell alittle nervous since it will be his first time.

We're talking about AJ(Jamison) versus AK(kirilenko) how does AJ versus AW(Walker) enter into the picture???
We already have both Walker and Jamison.

Excuse me. Where in this thread did I say that Jamison is better than Walker. I have been discussing AK vs Jamison. Until your post, I haven't mentioned walker and did so only to question why you did.

RE:Dallas/ Utah Trade for AK47
Most of you don't realize how good AK is. The guy either is or shortly will be a better player than Jamison. There's no way Utah does this deal. AK is one of the best all around players in the NBA. The guy blocks shots, scores, rebounds, steals the ball, passes well and plays good man to man defense.
the guy is an all around stud.

the guy is an all around stud.

Murphy, I don't disagree that Utah wouldn't do the deal. I wouldn't do it from Utah's perspective myself. I just don't think AK brings enough extra this year to justify it. In future years he probably would.

RE:Dallas/ Utah Trade for AK47
right now we dont need a back up forward, we need to figure out how to get a back up center or at least a decent one.

You wouldn't do it from Utah's persective? And you wouldn't do it from the Mavs perspective
hmmmm
interesting.
I'd honestly trade anyone on the team for AK except for Dirk and maybe steve

RE:Dallas/ Utah Trade for AK47
through my perspective AK gives us a better chance to win it all than Jamison does. Also, LRB I'm not sure I would agree with you saying Jamison is our best post up player...Walker has a great post up.

An arguable point, but I still put Jamison firmly at #1. Walker is better at other aspects though. Jump shot, driving, and passing. But AJ is better at getting his shot off against tough lowpost defenders.

RE:Dallas/ Utah Trade for AK47
walker is pretty much an all around player but he isnt a good post up player as he is a shooter or driving to the basket

My thoughts exactly Murph. AK is just insane, the guy is freaking amazing. And yes we have a better chance for a ring with AK47 as he is an INSANE defender and near as good if not better offensively.
