I'm not a Vince Carter fan. When he was with the Nets, he annoyed the crap out of me.

With that being said, his dunk over Frederic Weis is still the best in-game dunk I have ever seen.



He had some great years in NJ. He and Kidd were quite the duo.

not excited at all about this. I have accepted that we will suck at SF until we move Gordon though

This was just this past season. He's still got it a little bit.

Alright I think I now understand why y'all say the thread has been hijacked, just realized that this is about all Free Agency, not just Mavs/Rockets. lol I'm an idiot.

Anyways, any news on Bledsoe, will suns sign him or is there still a chance he goes elsewhere?

Yeah he is still really athletic, he just can't play more than 30 minutes a game. He's a great bench player.

They'll have to throw out a 3 guard lineup

AD and Asik may be enough to protect the rim once the majority of the leagues SFs blow by Tyreke

Honestly, I'd prefer

Holiday
Gordon
SF with a respectable jumper
Davis
Asik

Tyreke should play most of his minutes with Anderson to provide spacing. As for SF, John Salmons doesn't do much for me. I'm still hoping we can swing a trade.

We've been talking about Casspi. Not sure if and when he could be traded, but I'm hoping he can be used to trade for something resembling a decent SF.

Asik and Davis could build a wall on defense

Asik and Evans could build a wall on offense

If Evans is on the court, whomever is sitting in the corner should get a lot of shots.

He doesn't have that sort of in-game athleticism but he can still throw some down.

Just get ready to Rev it Up

i'd like to see more of evans running the point with jrue playing more off ball. Gordon is just wasting minutes that should go to players who actually are part of our future

I will take him getting up shots because it will help us space the floor. While Mike Miller shot a very good percentage this past season there would be 5-10 game stretches where he'd only get up 1 or 2 shots a game.

Joerger also dropped a Hollinger stat during the press conference and mentioned that VC was like a top 15 pick and roll player last season.
