Yes. That was nice. But we are moving forward now. How hard is he to replace?

Given your arguments in the other thread and the fact that Dallas is pretty much guaranteed to be in the LT regardless of whether they amnesty anyone, I'd think the answer would be obvious to you. He'd be damn near impossible to replace.

It's a brave new world, my man. A world in which Marion wasn't worth the freight would not be at all surprising.

Marion just slowed/shut down some of the best basketball players on the planet a mere 5-6 months ago... How far do you expect his skills to drop off in the next couple of seasons? I think 8-9mil/year is EXACTLY what you pay a guy who can make a superstar's life hell.
If you roll Kidd, Marion and Chandler out with Dirk, then you keep the defensive-minded identity of a team that just won the NBA Championship... Chemistry definitely shouldn't be understated in this league (ask Chris Bosh how he feels about the concept...)

@DwyaneWade Just got a strongly worded text from the big homie @realtuffjuice haha.
I think I know where this is headed.... And if so, screw Caron.

Actually, my first thought went to Caron's competitiveness, loyalty to the Mavs, and desire to help the team defend its title by stomping the Heat again, starting on Christmas day.

"The kids are alright," is what I would say. That's that deal we have chosen.
