Ayepecks Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 http://www.nba.com/mavericks/news/mavs_com...lden_state.html Yeah... that sucks. Now we have a bunch of crappy centers and one good center. Then we give away our most physical player -- Eddie Najera away. We also give away two first-round draft picks -- pretty much for only Dampier. STUPID, STUPID, STUPID. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-=SD=- Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 Don't watch basketball that much, but I've never heard of any of these players involved in the trade. :p Well except Laettner, but he's a bust.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayepecks Posted August 25, 2004 Author Share Posted August 25, 2004 IMO, Laettner's pretty underrated... of course he was drafted too high (and played amazing in college and not as good in the pros), but he's pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L3thal Veteran Posted August 25, 2004 Veteran Share Posted August 25, 2004 3 pointer? I think it was a long turnaround jump shot :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bangbang023 Veteran Posted August 25, 2004 Veteran Share Posted August 25, 2004 It was a long turn around just. Either way, Dallas got the short end of the rope on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.... Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 laettner, the dude that helped duke defeat ky..ahh that 3 pointer...ur right, hes either underrated, or being a bust and going down.. We're talking the NBA here. In terms of Laettner's success in college, he has been a bust in the pros. In fact, not a whole lot of Duke players do well in the Pro game. (I said not a lot....)

L3thal Veteran Posted August 26, 2004 Veteran Share Posted August 26, 2004 The exceptions are Grant Hill and Carlos Boozer just to name two :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayepecks Posted August 26, 2004 Author Share Posted August 26, 2004 Sean Battier (spelling?) is doing pretty decent thus far... nothing amazing, but good none-the-less. Deng may do good, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bithub Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 Dampier is worth what the Mavs traded to get him. You traded a bunch of nobodys (lol, cant believe you called Najera "physical") for the third (maybe 4th) best center in the game. All the Mavs need now is a good point guard to put them in a spot where they could reach the finals (Jason Kidd perhaps?). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toxikk Veteran Posted August 26, 2004 Veteran Share Posted August 26, 2004 dude likes to travel. http://www.nba.com/playerfile/christian_la...x.html?nav=page he didnt even play a game for dal yet did he before getting traded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
