Monta Ellis and Mavericks closing in on a three-year deal that could rise to as much as $30 million. Deal on course to be completed today

[Fafnir]

Still can't believe he passed on the Bucks initial offer.

It'll be fun to see Monta and Dirk work the pick and roll together.

So they have Harris, Calderson, and now maybe Ellis

Strange backcourt to construct. Apparently Iggy was close to signing in Dallas before the GS/Utah deal came together to create the cap space for his signing there.

Devin Harris?

Yeah three years $9 million

[Fafnir]

Reports are that this deal is done now.

Presumably Ellis and Calderon will start, and Devin will be a 6th man. Interesting.

I didn't hear about that one. Okay, so Dallas now have their perimeter rotation set.

PG - J.Calderon, D.Harris, S.Larkin
OG - M.Ellis, W.Ellington
SF - S.Marion, V.Carter, J.Crowder

That looks like a fairly solid but uninspiring group of players. Look able to play even/neutral on average. Give them a shot at .500.

Their big man rotation is still fairly sparse. Their lack of interior help for Dirk is a problem (for now at least). Probably drag them back to 30-35 wins if unaddressed.

The year they won a championship they had a guard rotation of Kidd, Terry, Barea, and Stevenson. It looks to me like they are trying to copy that model.

Dalembert would help them a lot assuming he decides to sign there

Don't forget about Gal Mekel.  Highly thought of Israeli PG they also signed.

Except Dirk will also be left watching.

[SCeltic34]

Not impressed with the moves Dallas is making.  No way they even reach the WCF with those pieces.

Didn't Mayo go to Milwaukee?

Treadmill teams gon' treadmill.
