    That would be a good trade for the mavs. At #7 they could pick Pietres to replace Finley at the SG spot.

    AHH. I dunno if I like this. I REALLY dislike the Mavs and I don't want the Bulls going and making them better. They'd really benefit from this. I'm not so sure about the Bulls benefiting. Maybe if Finley's defense was better. But it's not. Grr.

    this is a good trade for both teams. finley is still a great player and would finally give the bulls some leadership. the bulls have too many forwards and they need to start getting their team in place instead of constantly bringing in new draft picks.

    the mavs will have an even stronger bench and should get a solid player with the #7 pick who they can develop slowly.

    LaFrentz, Dirk, Marshall, Wade, Nash...I'm guessing that would be Dallas' starting lineup if the deal went down. I'd like to see it happen.

    I think the Mavs should do that Trade. I dont think that they are the interested in Finley as much as they were a few years ago, that teams seems like the Dirk and Nash show with Finley as the sidekick. They can do a lot with the seventh pick, I think that it would be a great steal. Donyell can play SF, andf then Dirk can be pure PF.

    Dirk

    Yes they should do it. I hate to see Fin go, but if it helps the team out then go for it..

    Yeh I like the trade for Dallas, they need to alter their team because it's good but not good enough to win in ther finals. Wade is defintley going early and for a team like Dallas to get him in exchange for Finley, that might be all they need in a couple of years.
    They need to work on letting Lafrentz go because he just doesn't fit in with Dallas unlike Denver.
