Elton Brown
Pops Mensah-Bonsu
Charles Rhodes
Alonzo Mourning
Dikembe Mutombo
Kwame Brown
Didier M'Benga
Justin Williams

I think we would like an athletic small center. Zo is the best available option.

I think you mean Brandon Bass. Coz Dirk's a better help defender with his long arms.
On the contrary, Brandon Bass has got reasonable muscle to bang up.

No, I mean Dirk cuz Dirk played the defensive center while Bass played the offensive center. It was Dirk grabbing all those boards and clogging the lane when the Dirk/Bass combo was on the floor.

totally true to this...There is no need for a 3 string center anyways bass or dirk will swing
there if need be.

I don't think a 3rd string center is necessary either.

The Mavs need to find a starting SG before they worry about wasting there time on the 12th man of the team.

It will be Charles "Dusty" Rhodes.

Summer Leaguers who will end up on the final 15 I believe will be:
Singleton
Rhodes
Green
R. Terry
Miles

Where's he now?
I have a question for long. Is he really interested in learning to play b-ball?

Are you saying they will make the 15 man roster, or have a chance of making the 15 man roster?

A (Jones, Stack, and Bass) trade for a single player could allow someone like Rhodes to make the squad as a backup PF as well as R. Terry to make the squad as a 3rd string Swingman...

My prediction for a roster:
1) Dampier
2) Diop
3) 3rd String Center
4) Nowitzki
5) Rhodes
6) Singleton
7) Howard
8) Green
9) R. Terry
10) Swingman we trade for
11) J. Terry
12) Wright
13) Kidd
14) Barea
15) A. Miles

We can't afford another shoulder surgery for Dampier or Diop. Dirk doesn't have much years to waste. I surely hope the Mavs can sign a rotation C who can help in deep playoff run.

I agree with Terry and Rhodes making the team, or having a chance to make the team. Aaron Miles on the other hand, I'm not totally sold(on him I am, but not on us giving him a roster spot). I think it's a bold statement to say that he makes the roster, but I like it. I think he looked good during SL, and his passing ability was impressive.
