Dallas needs a change; what do you have?

[Rand10]

Dampier + George for Ben Wallace?

Dallas gets a useful player and long-term salary cap relief (Wallace's contract is one year shorter than Dampier).

No thanks. Dampier is better than Wallace, and his last year is unguaranteed.

Don't flatter yourself ss_maverick. I was not arguing with you, I was replying back to all those non-mav fans that dont recognize.

And what's this about Devin not being able to shoot the 3 and Howard can? Are you blind? Harris is 35.7; Howard 35.5%

And you say "When it comes to rebounding, Josh clearly blows him out of the water" and when it comes to passing you say "Now, passing is not in favour of Devin. Sure, he gets more assists. But that's more to do with him being a PG"

Here is my rebuttle: "When it comes to Passing, Devin clearly blows him out of the water" "Now, rebounding is not in favour of Howard. Sure, he gets more rebounds. But that's more to do with him being a SF"

And if you think Harris has no playmaking ability, you clearly are looking through Howard love goggles and Harris hate goggles.

And if you want to talk about reputation, Howard has a reputation of making stupid decisions and having a lower BB IQ, esp compatred to Harris, who does not flop quite as much as he did last year and Nov of this year. Since then, he has flopped very little!

And once again, 37% of mav fans (not counting myself which voted for Dirk) agree Devin is our best player. I think he is our 2nd baest player.

1a................. Dirk
1b................. Harris
1c(1st half).....Howard

All these non-Mavs fans who aren't as misguided as you?

Josh Howard's 7.5 rpg is very good for a starting SF. Devin's 5.3 apg is piss poor for a starting PG. Therein lies the difference. Who cares how a SF passes or a PG rebounds [except when they're crazy good like Kidd]?
So you see, it's not a case of me making the stats biased in favour of Howard, Devin just isn't as good as Josh is.

Oh, and what playmaking abilities? Through all the Mavs games I have seen this year I haven't seen even a little bit of playmaking ability from Harris. Now, I may have watched all the wrong games but that is very unlikely. Harris is a good scorer, really good defender but his offense is based on scoring, not playmaking. He is just NOT good at that.

Oh, and have you ever heard of something called over-hyping? Devin's improved this year and lots of Mavs fans like yourself have begun overrating him vastly. If you want some unbiased opinions on who's better, look here:

Oh, and you may flatter yourself; I am arguing with just you because you are the only one who thinks that Devin Harris is better than Josh Howard. Numbers don't lie: 14.4ppg/2.3rpg/5.3apg vs 20.7ppg/7.5rpg/2.1apg

jess 12 is a f***ing idiot and its clear he doesnt watch basketball, i have never seen two studip comments in the same topic by the same person until you came along, devin harris 2nd best mav, untouchable, better then j ho, and the mavs would be a lotto team without him, what planet are you from when josh was down the mavs played atlanta, cleveland, and some other team who is not on the caliber of boston and detroit, devins numbers arent even better then jets when he was the starter last year so i dont know what kinda man crush you have on devin but its getting old. josh is a better at everything and you better believe cuban will ship harris out for kidd but not howard, that should tell u something

[thaAteam]

oh, and that poll you voted on with devin being the first half mvp, only morons who dont actually attend games vote on that, and josh was leading the whole way but devin had a good game and they were wattching
