Bass could be a solid get to provide some depth behind an aging Dirk.
In 2007, the Dallas Mavericks poached a power forward off the NBA scrap heap named Brandon Bass. After two disappointing seasons in New Orleans, Bass opened eyes playing on the Mavericks' Summer League team. Dallas signed Bass to a two year deal with their bi-annual exception. In his two years with the Mavericks, the undersized Bass averaged 8.4 points and 4.5 rebounds per game.
The 2007-08 and 2008-09 seasons are dark years for Mavericks fans. While the teams won 51 and 50 games respectively, the seasons stand between the crushing postseason losses in 2006 and 2007 and the eventual triumph in 2011.
