DAL-TOR-CHA Trade
Really bored and decided that the answer to our problems lies in a cheap obtainable playmaking point guard. Toronto has two so why not try and strike a deal with them?
Dallas trades: DJ Mbenga, Erick Dampier, Jason Terry Charlotte trades: Brevin Knight, Sean May Toronto trades: TJ Ford, Kris Humphries, Rasho Nesterovic Dallas receives: TJ Ford, Sean May, Rasho Nesterovic Charlotte receives: DJ Mbenga, Erick Dampier, Kris Humphries Toronto receives: Jason Terry, Brevin Knight This is a three way trade, not sure why Charlotte does it other than having a serious low post defender along with Okafor, replacing Wallace if he leaves (with a serious downgrade), and taking a chance on an athletic freak of nature center. Toronto does it to replace Mo Pete if he splits with the upgrade of Jet (and we could take a look at Peterson with our MLE) while not losing much by getting back a terrific albeit much older pg in Knight. They lose their center but they will probably play even smaller ball next season since they are the Phoenix of the east with Bosh and Bargnani more than capable of playing center minutes. We do it to get some (any!) offense from our center position sacrificing a defensive prescence, a playmaking point guard (which would be much cheaper than the suggested Kidd, Billups, etc. trades), and a nice young backup for Dirk. You could also switch Ford with Calderon, which ever Toronto wants to part with since they are both young and excellent playmakers. Our new lineup: Diop/Nesterovic Dirk/May/Pops Howard/Stack (resigned) Peterson(?)/Buckner Ford/Harris/Barea Our point guard position would be young and versatile without needing to pickup an additional all-star with a huge contract. Any ideas on how to make this trade a bit more than fantasy from a Charlotte perspective? I honestly think having both Damp and Okafor defensively would be great for them, I just don't know if they would take his contract. |

So essentially, Damp and Terry for Rasho and TJ Ford.
...No.

Charlotte might do this deal. Toronto never would.

Keeping in mind we are lacking both offense from the five and playmaking from the point the trade makes more sense, those are the two things everyone says we were lacking in that series. And why dismiss May? He's young and is already a better backup than Cro.
Not saying we should do the trade, its just the answer to the problems everyone is suggesting these Mavs have. |

Nobody wants Damp. Hell, right now I'm just considering cutting him.
