My thoughts: this could be great for this season, particularly with how Shaq is playing, but we do still have the problem of him only playing 1 of 2 nights on back to back games. Who do we plug in behind him? Diop Diop is gone... is there anyone else on the roster who can fill this spot?

  1. I don't know, I'm kinda intrigued. I gotta believe that Shaq, Dirk & Kidd would be able to make a run this year or next (all we'd have to do Jan is make the playoffs, Shaq can rest pretty regularly), though I don't know if the Suns want to play all of next year with Dampier just to save money in '10-'11.

    I do agree with the comments on the story link, b/c Skin is starting to get really really annoying.

  2. I'm not sayint I'm against it- actually I think it would be great to see Shaq in a Mavs uniform. I just don't know if it will pan out as awesome as some think. Yeah- he'll get to rest in the playoffs, but we have to make it there first.

    I do think he'll be super motivated like he was with Miami if he got here. And he has actually looked remarkably quick on his feet this season.

    I guess we'll see. I won't get my hopes up though.

  3. I just saying if you can get Shaq by only having to give up Dampier and Stack with Shaq coming off the books after next season then it is worth a shot. Shaq would be a vast improvement over Dampier offensively and stop some of the double teams on Dirk.
