shaq with the mavs would be the best choice in terms of advancing in the playoffs,
i really wonder where AI is goin this free agency. willing to play for any team and any amount, but he needs to go to a contender i know hes not gonna take the backseat on a shitty team and he doesnt deserve to. although i didnt like his attutide last year because he was told there was a chance he might play off the bench and he left, but if it were a contender especially with somebody with a big ego (ie kobe, wade, etc etc) than i know itll be kool.

Id be all for a Parker/McDyess for Josh Smith/ Bibby trade. ATL is looking for an All Star calliber PG and this rumor has been out there. The salaries matchup. Make the trade, resign Jefferson...and sign AI in a backup role.
That would give us...
PG Hill / Bibby / Temple
SG Manu / AI / Hairston
SF Jefferson / Anderson
PF Smith / Blair
C Duncan / Splitter
I know typically AI has been at the point...but for the sake of ball movement I would rather him be at the 2. The rookie Anderson is really a SG, but we can use him at the 3 and play small ball with the second unit. Bibby, AI, Anderson, Blair, and Splitter will bring a ton of energy and our starting 5 would definitely be solid.

thats a pretty balanced line up, young guys with a good amount of vets on the team, well i only put AI as point for def purposes, you know on the offensive end hes a 2 guard, he CAN play the point but thats not his game and itll make his game suffer.
and im sure pop would keep iverson in check, and iverson would be alright with it given that hes on a contender with that line up, but i dont see that trade happening. mcdyess for josh smith? cmon now.

the two main players in that trade are Parker and Smith....with Parkers salary being the highest. He is around 12 mil and Dyess over 4. Smith is around 10, and Bibby around 6. So the salaries fit. ATL is looking to upgrade at the PG position, and Parker would be the best player in that trade. So it helps both teams.
My only concern with that trade, is it doesnt address our outside shooting. We need more shooters. Anderson is gonna be solid of course. But we wouldnt have a real deadly 3 point guy in the starting lineup.
