Howard hasn't been spoken for quite yet.

Mavs never should have let Chandler go. HUGE mistake.

^ Except they replaced him with Odom, I think they'll be just fine, especially since Odom has something to prove.

I'd be more worried about the health of any one of your older guys.

Odom was a great pick up. I was extremely disappointed with this off-season until Odom was added. But the only problem with that is, he's not a center. So there's still a huge hole there at the center position. Brendan Haywood is a great back-up, but we need another center. I'm really hoping we can pick up Samuel Dalembert. Haywood and Dalembert would make a good two-headed center.

Dirk will be fine, I'm not worried about him or Terry. Jason Kidd is another story. He is getting very old. But this is a shortened NBA season and that really plays in the Mavs' favor.

I agree, though. I think we'll be ok. But I think if we want a really legit shot at winning it all again, we must get another center. If we can't get Howard, then Dalembert is our next best bet.

The Mavs personnel sorta seem like a team that wins it once. They just aren't talented enough to repeat. Then you compound that with their collective age and things don't look so rosy.

Even most mavs fans didn't expect them to win it all last year. I think they're a long shot to win it all again, but I'm not going to doubt them like I did last year. I think our only chance of repeating lies in picking up a solid center, like dalembert. As long as Haywood is the starter and mihimi is the only back up, were gonna struggle to be as good as last year.

Don't worry, we'll get our center next year when Howard becomes a free agent.

Why would he join a team with such an old core?

EDIT: FANTASY

Because the Mavs won it all with Tyson, so there's no reason to think they wouldn't repeat with DH playing center. He could theoretically be in a good position to win a title now, and carry on with his career however he wanted.
