    Yeah, we had lots of chemistry problems, but don't worry, man, Mavs are in good shape now.We just need a win tonight with a huge Dirk game.

    Jamison as a starter is another liability on defense. Nash, Finley, Jamison, and Dirk would be one of the worst defensive teams of all time. Josh Howard definitely is a much better fit than Jamison because of his defense.

    Yeah, completely true, but Dirk is on pace to win the Most Improved Defender of the Year Award!

    That team could care less for defense and Jamison is a starter in this league. He was only on the bench here because of the players in front of him.<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Jamison as a starter is another liability on defense.

Jamison would start over him had we kept Raef and not added Walker.

    Actually Don Nelson had Josh Howard start in front of Jamison at times during the year. Usually when Dallas went small. At the end of the year Daniels really picked up his game and ended up starting in front of Howard. Jamison relied on second chance points for most of his scoring and defense does matter but don't tell that to Don Nelson. Walker was a bad defender but still better than Jamison. Anyone in the nba is.

Our main lineup for the start was Nash/Finley/Dirk/Walker/Fortson, then Nellie started starting Delk, Nash/Delk/Fin/Dirk/Walker, Howard would fill in starting at times over Delk. Then came the Daniels insertion after the break. Jamison never got to start because Nellie said he was the 6th man and like Avery wants them to be accustomed to that role all year. Jamison was the better player and should have started.

    Delk never started. He hardly played at all. The lineup was Nash/Finley/Howard/Walker/Nowitzki or Nash/Finley/Nowitzki/Walker/Fortson for most of the year but at the end of the year it was Nash/Daniels/Finley/Nowitzki/Walker.

    There was no set roster for that season, probably my least favorite. The staters changed quite often that season. Delk started the games when Nash was hurt. That season was all messed up, the only soild promised starters in that season was Nash/Fin/Walker/Dirk. The other rotation players that started were Howard, Quis, Delk, Fortson. Oh yea Scott Williams(My birthday present, uh)

    Yeah that team never got in a rhythm because of constant lineup changes. Avery seems to be doing that this year as well. Hopefully the playoffs aren't effected with the switches at SG and C.

    Well Terry started any way before he went to SG, shouldnt be a problem. And Diop has been starting since mid January, he should be comfrotable starting. And Dampier should be use to bench by now

Delk started quite a few games at sg. Checked the numbers, he started 11 games, Howard started 29 and Daniels 15. And also noticed Scott Williams, lol I forgot about him and he started some games as well.

    Actually, Dallas DID have a set roster for the 2003-2004 season.Walker/Jamison were back-ups in case Dirk would get another injury like the one in the Western Conference Finals!

    Walker started so he wasent a back up really, he would still start even if Dirk had an injury

    Lol, calm down, man!This is Mavs talk, we're just talking about it.Anyway, Dirk had a 27-13 game in Atlanta. Had 3 offensive rebounds in the winning effort, played some nice defense, and another game for Dirk to be known as an MVP.
