NVE/Dampier to Dallas...Screw Portland

[rakesh.s]

nick van exel was the spark on the road last year and the reason we had such a good road record...dampier would be great but i don't want to have to take on nve(even if it was possible) just for that

but this year he's got really really creaky knees..play a few games, sit out some more..ala pippen

i don't want to take that chance..gotta get ostertag this year and move out a couple big contracts(one of the toine/tawn's or dare i say, finley *gasp* and tariq)..sign nash to a decent deal, not the max but just under like bibby

or hell, keep signing FA's to the max if cuban can afford it
