letting Ian walk
...and Dahntay Jones from the Pacers for Ian Mahinmi. Damn.

Mavs suck.
Robbery. Pacers need Ian's 6 fouls
Collison> old fart Kidd
Collison> Jason Terry
And Mahinmi ing sucks and Kaman is better than him. Dallas got better, much better.
Don't blow a ing gasket. They were decent moves but lets not overreact.
The Pacers got fleeced on this one...Collison is a starter and Jones would be a very solid backup SG...Mahimi is a nothing more than a 4th big on the Pacers, behind Hibbert, West and Hansborough. Only way I see this making sense is if Hibbert has already decided to go to Portland.
I'm not blowing a gasket unless you have magical powers and can teleport to where I am and can see my demeanor while I'm typing. They made needed moves that makes them better than what they were this past season.
i don't understand the trade for Indiana unless they are getting ready to make another trade here shortly
They seem to want Hill to be the starting PG but they're also looking into getting DJ Augustin.
They finished 7th this year and replaced Jason Terry with Darren Collison. They'll finish right around 7th again. Not a threat.
Mavs are stacked.
Replacing Kidd/Terry with Collison/Jones? That's totally STAAAAAAAAACKED.
I'm not going to underestimate the Mavs, they've won a Championship more recently than we have too. A Dirk and Kaman tandem will be formidable in the front court and Collison is better than Kidd right now. Sure, they may still be a couple pieces away from truly contending but I'm not gonna look down on them yet.
lol
Dirk and Kaman will be arguably the worst defensive front court in the West. They're an average team right now even with these moves.
GNSF strikes again.
collison lost the PG spot to george hill
hes not very good
indianas problem will always be not having a star player/pg who cant create for others
not much of a difference between him and the savior sessions really
If there's something to complain about (because there's always something to complain about) then it would be not keeping Ian around. Spurs went with Blair (which at the time was an understandable move) but now they can't even trade him for a Whataburger and fries.
Who cares about Dallas? The Spurs are still the better team.
lol kaman and collison big prizes
Eh...good, not GREAT players. I still see them as a 6 seed at best, 8 seed or lower at worst.
It's not as much as how good Collison or Jones are, it's how much they got for 2 fouls/minute... Plus they needed to get younger in the perimeter, and this move does that for them...
Mavs had tried for much bigger fish but came up empty before today. Talentwise they are way behind their championship team.
Collison sucks. The Mavs got him because at this point they're desperate for bodies to fill out their roster and didn't have a single pure PG to speak of, plus he's in the final year of his contract. There's a reason IND gave him away for a backup center, and why he's already now on his 3rd team of his brief career. He doesn't see the floor, can't shoot from 3-pt range, and is a horrid, undersized defender. Collison actually had the worst Plus/Minus in the entire league - all players! - during the 2010/11 season. Collison is a middling backup at best, and a flat out liability as a starter. The Mavs didn't get better, they got dumber.
Collison is also undersized. Sure he's got a good vertical (6 feet but dunks) but bigger guards will hamper him.
