Dallasbasketball.com is calling this day "Day That Will Live In Mavs Infamy" and I am inclined to believe that after losing Marcin Gortat to Orlando and Roddy Beaubois to injury. The extent of Roddy's injury is uncertain at this time (check back for an update) but Gortat's absence from this team is the thing that stings the most right now. His agent had said that Mr. Gortat was disappointed to hear that Orlando had matched the deal because that means he has to settle for watching Superman from the bench for the next 5 years possibly.
So what do the Mavs do now? Well the off-season has now rebooted for Dallas after we thought they were basically done. Who are the suspects to take up the slack:
Tyson Chandler
Emeka Okafor
Elton Brand
Marquis Daniels
Marcus Camby
Chris Kaman (I like him IF he can stay healthy)
David Lee
Eddie Curry
Most of these guys don't get me excited primarily because you are going to have to overpay for them unlike Mr. Gortat who would have been payed half of Damp is owed this season.
Stay tuned for the lastest on the NEW off-season for the Mavs!
Update: Roddy has a left knee contusion according to the Mavs.
