[KendrickPerkins]

Mavs & Jameer Nelson finalizing two-year, $6M deal that will include player option in Year 2. ESPN sources say deal will be completed today

Per Marc Stein

Mavs looking REALLY good.

Jameer Nelson
Monta Ellis
Chandler Parsons
Dirk Nowitzki
Tyson Chandler

Holy shit.

Favorite to win the West

[sammichoffate]

Wow. Just wow. Mavs clearly had the best offseason of any team

[imnew09]

Championship Caliber team if they were all a few yrs younger except Parson

[navy]

This would be a scary team 4 years ago.

[SCdac]

Nice! they need another PG desperately

is this Jameers first team other than ORL? good for him to land on a good team

[SOD 21]

A definite championship AARP contending team.

[longtime lurker]

I'm liking all the moves the Mass made this offseason. They won't be championship contenders but they could upset a higher seed. Then and Memphis teams no one wants to meet in the playoffs

[shortsoptional]

I wonder who's starting... Carlisle will use 10+ different lineups anyways...

My guess is:

PG: Devin Harris
SG: Monta Ellis
SF: Chandler Parsons
PF: Dirk Nowitzki
C: Tyson Chandler

And Jameer will be first off the bench to spell either guard spot. Which ever guard other than Ellis has the hot hand that night will close out the game.

But I see Devin starting to guard the opponents best guard.

Mavs made some very solid moves this offseason. Will be very dangerous.

Jameer Nelson

Holy shit.

Signing Nelson at this point doesn't exactly warrant a holy shit. Chandler will probably get hurt, so will Jameer, Ellis is Ellis- the guy isn't going to play any better, Vince played great, Dirk is older, Parsons got his contract and probably is the same guy maybe a bit better at best.

First round team.

thats been how my Mavs have rolled for years

[SCdac]

Hey for the mavs sake... look at who just won the championship, Duncan is like 384382 years old... you don't need a super star to win... just a cohesive unit

[pegasus]

I really hope Dirk has at least one great season left in him. He and the Mavs can make the West even more interesting if they can live up to the hype these offseason moves will generate.

I'm pretty sure they are going to have Harris off the bench b/c they like the way he plays with Wright. At least this is what they will do to start the year. They are still being cautious with his toe b/c the surgery was experimental.

By the end of the year I think Devin will be at a minimum playing starters minutes like Terry did when he was the 6th man. Of course that would require him to remain healthy all year which is kind of a big if with Devin.
