Ellis definitely thinks very highly of himself....just watch him hoop for 5-10 minutes and you can tell

In other news....

1) Luke Ridnour to Bucks
2) Kevin Martin to T-Wolves in S&T

Something tells me Adelman has a hard-on for Martin

Not FA related but thought I would share this. Old school footage of Mutombo, Jordan, and Ewing.

Adelman hates defense.

Nice for Houston.

Reggie Williams to houston

Reggie Williams had a really solid first two years in the league, especially his rookie season with GS but he's been pretty damn awful the past couple seasons. To his defense he has been playing in Charlotte. Wouldn't expect much there though.

Bynum chooses Cleveland.

Wow FA #2 spurns the Mavs ! Being a Mavs hater, this brings me great pleasure in seeing that FA don't see Dallas being a premier basketball city because everyone knows that Dallas is the Dallas Cowboys.

so you know for sure that the Mavs still offered Bynum a comparable contract after he refused to workout this morning? Link?

There's not much room in defending the Mavs but it at least appears right now they were smart enough to avoid offering Bynum.

Not sure I would give Bynum more than 1 year.

Why not? If he does succeed you have him as trade bait. If he does succeed and he's only under one year he walks for nothing

Fahrenheit isn't obsessed with Dallas at all

Cleveland has a team option on the 2nd year and the first year is only partially guaranteed as well.

Glad the Mavs missed on that ****bag.

Dallasbasketball.com reports the Mavs declined to offer Bynum. The story requires insider access, so that's all I gots.

Mav's didn't offer.

@ESPNSteinLine: Neither Atlanta nor Dallas, sources tell ESPN, made formal offer to Bynum after their respective sitdowns with the former All-Star this week



Moral victory denied.

Your apostrophes are in the wrong place. If you're gonna talk ****, at least be thorough and do it correctly

Summit, was that intentional?

We can still make fun of the Mavs for breaking up the title team, tanking two seasons for two of Deron/Paul/Howard and ending up with none of them, right?

Teague 4/32 M from bucks

Monta Ellis gonna kill that man for stealing his money.

Only if we can still make fun of Spewston going 1-10 vs. the crappy Mavs the past three seasons. I mean, since we're harboring on the past and all. We could go further back, but it only gets worse so we might as well end it there...

Was what intentional?

I know what you were talking about. And no, it was not intentional

Soup makes a great post about the mavs and the response is about the rockets?

Yeah I'm confused as well. Maybe he doesn't realize soup is a San Mexico fan and doesn't give 2 ****s about the rockets? I guess?

I like the Rockets and cheer for the Rockets. I hope the Rockets get a third star and in the absence of the Spurs winning it all, my second choice would be the Rockets winning it all.

Awww soupy. Makin me blush.

Dallas Mavs news ‏@dmn_mavericks 1h
Source: Mavericks would be 'great fit' for center Samuel Dalembert: http://bit.ly/1b1Al0U

Sometimes you have to laugh to keep from crying...

Mavs meeting with Dalembert tomorrow, but they can't just sign him. They have to get an article in the paper with a source saying he's a 'great fit'

Why shouldn't he have taken the Bucks' offer? He isn't going to get better than 3/36. And no contenders are dumb enough to take him, but I don't get the impression he is worried about trying to get rings anyways.

i wouldn't have taken 3/36, but i sure as hell would not have opted out of that 1/11M remaining on the contract. The bucks are stuck in mediocrity hell, why stay there for 2 extra years?

I agree with you if we are talking about a player who cares about winning more than getting the most money and being able to jack up as many shots, not play D, etc. But we are talking about Ellis. I guarantee you he isn't trying to go to the team with the best chance of winning. He would go wherever pays him the most, even better if they are bad bc then he can play however the hell he wants. Not to mention, like I said, no contender wants to touch him with a 10 foot pole.

I think he turned down the offer bc he actually thinks he is worth more than 3/36, not bc he is worried about mediocrity. He is wrong. So I think he should have taken the offer.
