If by Mavs you mean Suns, then yes, they will. :wink: The Suns are going to win it all next year barring injury. Nash, Marion, Stoudamire, Diaw, Barbosa, Bell, and D'Antoni's system. Detroit no longer had the best starting 5. As for the KG trade, I say do whatever you can to switch Thomas our with Ben Gordon. Tyrus Thomas is the perfect combination of athleticism and size to (attempt to) guard LeBron James for the next 15 years. The reality of the situation is that we are now for all intents and purposes the Pacers of the 90's. We have a good team, but the best player of all time is in our division Not much we can do about that except try to put a team on the floor that can contain him.
