Talking about him in the Nets forum gave me the idea that Dallas could sign him. Diop is gone, so the Mavs need someone to fill the void. Why not? He can be insurance, or possibly contribute to the team.

I would like to see Malik Allen pack his bags. Avery Johnson won't stick him in the rotation like Lawrence Frank did. Dallas needs big men that play big, not a player who can make a mid-range jumper and nothing else. He's useless.

Of all the teams in the NBA the Mavs should be looking at Magliore.

Unless I'm forgetting someone, he's the best big man on the free agent market, anyway.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>MEMPHIS, Tenn. – The Mavericks' big-man search will come to a conclusion soon. Owner Mark Cuban said before Friday's game he expects to sign two big men to fill out the 15-man roster, which was left shy of inside players when center DeSagana Diop was included in the trade to New Jersey for Jason Kidd. Some obvious names might be on the Mavericks' radar. Jamaal Magloire was waived Friday by the Nets, and if he clears waivers he could be No. 1 on the Mavericks' list. The 6-11 center, in his eighth season, averaged 1.8 points and 3.4 rebounds in 24 games for the Nets. However, as recently as 2005-06, he started all 82 games for Milwaukee and averaged 9.2 points and 9.5 rebounds. Others on the watch list include Justin Williams (waived by Sacramento) and Viktor Khryapa (waived by Chicago). Cuban said the team is hoping not to have to dip into the Development League to find replacements.</div> Source
