Dallas/Toronto trade idea?

Dallas Trade Breakdown
Change in Team Outlook: +6.5 ppg, +2.1 rpg, and +2.0 apg.
Incoming Players
- Anthony Parker
6-6 SG / SF from Bradley
10.8 ppg, 3.0 rpg, 2.3 apg in 35.9 minutes
- Chris Bosh
6-10 PF / C from Georgia Tech
26.9 ppg, 10.8 rpg, 2.3 apg in 40.9 minutes
Outgoing Players
- Brandon Bass
6-8 PF from Lousiana State
6.5 ppg, 3.3 rpg, 0.3 apg in 17.9 minutes
- Dirk Nowitzki
7-0 PF from Germany (Foreign)
24.7 ppg, 8.4 rpg, 2.3 apg in 37.0 minutes

This trade would shake up two teams playing under their potential. Dirk and Bosh have almost equal stats per minute. Both of these stars could have a change of scenery. Am I putting too much value on Dirk or selling him short ? I am not sure if this leaves Toronto too much of a hole at SG with Parker logging heavy minutes. If so, a trade after Dec 15th could include Green instead of Bass.

Toronto wouldn't trade Bosh for Dirk

I don't think either teams (GM's) trades Bosh for Dirk.

I wouldn't think so either unless the Toronto FO is afraid of Bosh leaving in 2010.

Dirk can leave in 2010, but if Nash was serious about wanting to play in Canada, they I can see Dirk staying.

That would be a plus. It would be nice to see the duo finish their careers together.

Dallas should do it in a heartbeat, Tor won't. I'd even say keep parker, we'll take joey graham off ur hands and throw in shawne williams

I'm not so sure. They have to just about know that Bosh is leaving in 2010. Would they have a better chance to extend/keep Dirk? Toronto has been a franchise that's infatuated with the Euro. I think there just might be a possibilty with a trade involving Bosh and Dirk.
