Al McCoy just said obviously Butler was the key in the Mavs-Wiz trade..

I disagree.. Butler is not an improvment over Josh Howard when both are healthy, especially not as a #3 option or so.

The key of this trade was Haywood who is one of the better centers in the league.

I don't think Dallas is all that much better though. Howard is the better defender, he always killed us with his rock solid shooting and seemed to hit just everything from midrange.

With Jamieson, the Cavs dont look as intimidating like they would if they had traded for Amare. It may also affect their chemistry. They should have stand pat, when they couldnt get Amare.
I guess we will know what Miami will be offering by tomorrow afternoon.

 

[AfroSuns]

Wow!! I like how the Suns starts this game. It is full speed at the Mavs

 

[cly2tw]

Amare already 6 reb 2 asst, 1 block, 4 pt in 6 min of play

 

[slinslin]

8/7/2/2

JJ Hickson might not get that in a full game again all season..

 

[AfroSuns]

Frys comes in and starts chucking it up

 

[Griffin]

I don't like this lineup with both Amare and Lopez sitting. We only take jump shots and we've missed all of those.

 

[Proteus]

These games where we can't shoot or defend are just oh so fun.

Suns down 32-40 with 7:08 left in the 2nd quarter. Suns shooting 36%, Mavs 50%.

 

[Sunburn]

That was a horrible line-up when Frye was in. Completely stagnant. I want to see more cuts, more JRich on the block, more PnR's with Amare, more feeds to Amare. . . much less kick outs for 3 to Frye.

 

[Proteus]

Wow Amare with a double double already with 6 1/2 minutes left in the 2nd quarter.

 

[AfroSuns]

We are really missing Barbosa. Anyone know when he is due to return?

 

[AfroSuns]

Haywood, doing a really good job for the Mavs

 

[Proteus]

2/7 shooting from both Nash and JRich.

 

[Proteus]

We really should stop shooting the 3 since we're 1/13 from it.

 

[AfroSuns]

2/7 shooting from both Nash and JRich.

Yeah, those two suck so far, especially Nash. I sure hope we get good exchange for Amare if he is traded.

 

[AfroSuns]

Nash, we know you suck defensively but, OMG!!!

 

[Wonder]

1 of 14 shooting from 3pt range.

 

[Proteus]

9 point deficit turned into 19 point deficit in 2 1/2 minutes.

 

[95pro]

holy crap a put back dunk by frye???????

 

[AfroSuns]

OMG!! What a block on Marion by Amare

 

[AzStevenCal]

OMG!! What a block on Marion by Amare

Yeah, that was pretty special and one of the cleanest blocks you'll ever see - not even incidental contact.

Question of the Game: Would JJ Hickson have changed the outcome of this game?

 

[Proteus]

It's getting really annoying being owned by the Mavs - 3rd straight season we've lost the season series to them.
