I just don't get it, how is it that we lost Tyson Chandler? Already? How do we not have enough to keep him? Didn't he just win a title in Dallas? Now he's leaving for greener pastures? What's greener than the team that just got you a ring? If we cant afford him, who can? Im sure we'll learn more as soon as teams and players start negotiating and talking contracts again. A lot more to come over the next few days. Hopefully this opens the door for Dwight Howard next year. Maybe it frees some money up for CP3 or Deron Williams in 2012-2013. But it's such a gamble to let Chandler walk and hope that CP3, Dwight Howard, or D Wiiliams comes to Dallas. Chris Paul is going to New York, we all know that. Dwight Howard could happen, but i see him going to the Lakers if Bynum gets injured again (which is highly likely). Getting Deron Williams may happen, but is it worth losing Tyson Chandler? No way. Tyson wants a long term deal, but the Mavs can only offer a one year, max contract. But Tyson wants security if he gets injured. I can't figure out if I should be pissed at Tyson for leaving Dallas, or just chalk this up to the business of pro sports. Either way, it's a loss for the Mavericks.
All I know is that the best Center the franchise has ever had, is gone. And probably to some average team that has money to spend, like the Clippers. Can you imagine Chandler and Blake Griffin side by side? Or what about Chandler, Cousins, and Tyreke Evans on the same squad in Sacramento? Potential, yes. But why not stick with a proven champion? I guess legacy means nothing to Chandler because the Clippers or Kings aren't winning anytime soon.
So long TC, can't say it wasn't good while it lasted.
