McDyess is still bitter at Denver and doesn't want to be there, he's owed 13 million over two years and Stack is owed 9 million over this year. We could get rid of Stack, get a proper inside banger to show those pansies what to do..
Yeah exactly, but McDyess would have to approve the trade? (or am I wrong) Dallas would be a good choice but he might choose the Lakers or Celtics, if his contract is bought out.
I agree. Bass hasn't been getting proper amount of minutes, and he was very valuable last season. I'm waiting for Carlise to adjust the minutes, more. I want Stack gone, too. He is playing like Eddie Jones played last season. It's only been 4 games, but he has yet to really contribute off the bench. All I've seen from him is bricks.
I like Bass' game. In many ways he is similar to a younger McDyess. He is pretty explosive around the rim and has a decent jumper from 15ft. I think he needs more playing time, but with Dirk at PF, you really can't do much. The problem is with Dirk out there, you really need a Dampier or Diop to guard the basket and grab boards, and playing Dirk at center to accommodate Bass at PF pretty much invites the opposition to throw it down low and dunk on us. I think what Dallas can try is play Dirk at SF and Bass at PF, but on defense let Bass guard the opposing SF. Bass is quick enough to guard I'd say 75% of the small forwards out there. About Stack, I like it when he drives. Even at this point in his career, he is pretty effective doing so. He needs to stop taking jump shots. If he can do that, he still has value to the team, but if he keeps taking jumpers, I'd rather give Green a chance over him.
I thought McDyess said he only wanted to play for Detroit? Maybe I missed something, but that was the last I heard.
The last I heard as well. Also Brandon Bass deserves more minutes, that guy has potential to be a high energy beast.
