Plan B if D Wade and Lebron go elsewhere - Dallas-Mavs.com Forums

Minnessotta will not trade there number 2 pick, and yes Jefferson is available because him and love don't work will on the court. They need a wing and a bit of cap relief, Butler for Jefferson I think could work straight up as his deal is expiring also his deal is a couple of million less and they are looking for a wing, and possibly give up a first round pick but in a few years not next year or year after that

that would make me so Happy. A legit post scoring stud would be so sweet.

the more i think about this the more intriguing it seems. i'm really into "buy low" players and Al Jefferson was basically untouchable not too long ago. not sure how he and Dirk work defensively so you'd have to have someone like Haywood to rotate in. I wonder if Carlisle could keep everybody happy with playing time etc... doesn't seem to be his strength, to say the least. but when Dirk went out and Jefferson slid to PF we would have a legit go to scorer. we trade Damp for a 2 and keep Roddy. not a bad Plan B. it would take a little more than just Caron to get Jefferson probably as well.

I agree about needing more than Caron, but its an intriguing thought at least...

You could get Al Jefferson with the DUST Chip straight-up.

(if the T-Wolves were looking SOLELY for financial relief...)

If Wade and James are no gos (which is likely) and Jefferson is available...I'd go after him hard.

If we can't get a super star that could make Dirk the #2 option, we need at least to get Dirk a legit low post scoring second option.

Which I highly doubt they are, they are trying to rebuild and get a team that will compete in 2 years
