As part of a sign-and-trade deal, forward Hedo Turkoglu was traded to Toronto. InsideHoops.com

    Also included as parts of the deal - Toronto sends Shawn Marion, Kris Humphries, Nathan Jawai and cash considerations to Dallas, while also sending a future second round draft pick to Memphis; Memphis sends Greg Buckner to Dallas; Dallas sends Jerry Stackhouse and cash considerations to Memphis, while also sending Devean George and Antoine Wright to Toronto.

    Jason Kidd, Josh Howard, Shawn Marion, & Marcin Gortat are all excellent defenders.

    Great acquisition.

    I'm happy Cuban didn't sit around twiddling his thumbs this off-season.

    Still got Damp's contract for the deadline to get even better if needed.

    PG-Jason Kidd | JJ Barea
    SG-Josh Howard | Jason Terry
    SF-Shawn Marion | Josh Howard
    PF-Dirk Nowitzki | Shawn Marion
    CT-Marcin Gortat | Erick Dampier

    Thats your basic 8 man Dallas Mavericks rotation.

    Quintin Ross at the 3 also and Wright will get some minutes at the 2/3. Good depth on that roster.

    This is right. I have been interested in seeing what adding Gortat and Marion will do defensively for Dallas. It basically duplicates two already strong defensive spots (Howard/Marion and Dampier/Gortat), but it does help them cover more of the floor.

    They will always have a strong perimeter and a strong interior defender on the floor at the same time.

    The Mavs already got a young PG in the draft named Rodrigue Beaubois who's just as fast as Devin Harris.

    Marion is also good at guarding quick guards isnt he? he usually guarded Tony Parker when the Suns/Spurs met, but then again that was some year back and he's aged
