Hearing Devin Harris is on his way back to Dallas. Mavericks and Harris are closing in on three-year, $9+ million deal

Calderon/Harris/Larkin

I'd say they have no interest in Jameer. I didn't think they did before the signing.

They would definitely have interest in BBD or Afflalo though.

I was just speculating because there was a tweet that they were talking with us, and I remember a year ago that they really liked jameer

well with the Pistons signing Smith could leave to either Drummond or Monroe being gone. i think they are going to be letting Monroe go unless they are going to play Smith as a SF.

I'd play Smith at SF and keep the roster intact. Apparently Dumars is just looking for an outside sharpshooter to complete the team.

Afflalo for Brandon Knight sounds pretty good to me.

Peyton Siva is their back-up PG. Doubt they're moving Brandon Knight.

Only player I'm interested in on Dallas is Larkin. Meer would be a good mentor for him. They might be interested in BBD, they have no frontcourt depth right now.

...and Brandon Knight is the one that should be the backup. They have no real PG...that is why they won't win many games. They can't be done yet.

That's not what I meant. Dumars was looking for a sharp shooter to add to the roster and complete the team, as in, after Josh Smith.

well its gotta be either Drummond, Monroe, or Knight for AA. im sorry but one of the 3 is going to have to go to us. Knight fills more of a Need but if we can get either Monroe or Drummond instead its all good. i know a monroe, Vuc isnt the greatest defensively but man thats a legit rebounding and scoring front court

i think if they were smart they would play Smith at PF not SF. they need to acquire a guy to play SF. they can play Stuckey and Knight at PG and SG.

Knight would be nice as a combo guard off the bench. I think he'll be a good PG in the future, but seems like Joe is feeling some pressure to win now. The PG market is trying up fast though, only Jennings and Teague left, and they'll probably have to amnesty CV now to get either of them.

I feel like the funs just getting started this offseason.

Monroe or Drummond for AA??? You guys... :lol:

Even with how low Knight's stock is I doubt they give him up for Afflalo as well. They just drafted KCP and I think he will develop as a nice 3 & D player, there is no reason to give up a young asset for Afflalo. If they want a stopgap sg who can shoot the ball I can see them going after Morrow or Nick Young.

I'm not sure they'd want Afflalo that much. Why would they push KCP out of the lineup if they're looking for 3pt shooting? I think Dumars is going to look to upgrade their starting point before anything.
