i remember the mavs offered like josh howard, finely, and some bench warmer for shaq but the lakers refused cuz they were in our conference Imagine THE Mavs with a shaq and dirk novitzki
<div class="quote_poster">Brian Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">I thought I read somewhere the Mavs offered Dirk</div> I read somewhere that the Cavs were also offering Lebron, meanwhile the Nuggets threw Carmelo out there. Sarcasm aside, the Mavericks said all along Dirk was off limits, from what I recall same with the Heat and Wade.
Hm, maybe it was Jermain Oneal, not Dirk? I remember hearing somewhere that we could have gotten an All-Star forward in return. Now, I'm pretty sure the name I heard was Jermain Oneal, but I'm not 100%. Anyways, I would much rather take a package of Odom and Butler rather than Howard and Finley. How we managed to get stuck with Brian Grant's huge contract still baffles me to this day
