Or would you rather stick with the way history played out? That, and A Few Of Dirk's Favorite Things, in Donuts! http://mavericks.scout.com/2/1214135.html 2 Kevin Brolan http://mavericks.scout.com/2/1214135.html Mon, 27 Aug 2012 10:10:00 GMT 0 268 Dallas mavericks Future Hall-of-Famer Jason Kidd is speaking exclusively to DallasBasketball.com to respond to Mavs owner Mark Cuban's incendiary quotes about betrayal and about the potential of Kidd's jersey someday being retired in Dallas. 'No chance,' Cuban says. What does Kidd say in response? You can read that only here on DB.com: http://mavericks.scout.com/2/1213665.html 2 Mike Fisher http://mavericks.scout.com/2/1213665.html Wed, 22 Aug 2012 01:02:00 GMT 0 268 Dallas mavericks What Are The Mavs Building? Here's Part 3 of our series - Collison vs. Kidd. It's Synergy and The Eye Test but somewhere in here, we've got to get beyond stats and dig into BBIQ ... and do so with the help of a DB.com Video that highlights the best of Collison and Kidd: http://mavericks.scout.com/2/1203190.html 2 Chuck Perry http://mavericks.scout.com/2/1203190.html Mon, 20 Aug 2012 22:43:00 GMT 1 268 Dallas mavericks Donuts. The Mavs. A literal round table. And DB.com staffers Kevin Brolan, Mike Piellucci and Mike Fisher confer, brainstorm, argue and nosh. Fish is drinking chocolate milk. The kids are two coffees, black. You? You get all the Mavs Roundtable Donuts you can stomach ... http://mavericks.scout.com/2/1200434.html 2 DB.com staff http://mavericks.scout.com/2/1200434.html Fri, 06 Jul 2012 11:54:00 GMT 0 268 Dallas mavericks The Mavs have a well-earned reputation for pulling off transaction magic. But now their own 'first-dibs' free agent Jason Kidd is changing gears and leaving town. In truth, the Mavs keep trying to pull a rabbit out of their hat but instead continually end up with a handful of rabbit droppings. http://mavericks.scout.com/2/1200335.html 2 Mike Fisher http://mavericks.scout.com/2/1200335.html Thu, 05 Jul 2012 22:28:00 GMT 0 268 Dallas mavericks Two coasts. Two Jasons. Lots of emotions. While Boston-bound Jason Terry’s mention of a return to Dallas is now a courtesy, Deron golf chum Jason Kidd is 'focused on trying to get a deal done with Dallas' - but that was before the 6:13 p.m. tweet from Deron that he's staying with the Nets. Let's start with the emotions and the notes and even the quotes of the two Jasons. http://mavericks.scout.com/2/1199967.html 2 Fish & Chuck Perry http://mavericks.scout.com/2/1199967.html Tue, 03 Jul 2012 23:18:00 GMT 1 268 Dallas mavericks NEW YORK - We do not know what the Mavs will do with their No. 17 pick in the upcoming NBA Draft. If tradition holds, they'll sell it off as a sweetener. If there is a new CBA-friendly approach, they'll see that cheap talent can be had there, as we discuss in Monday Morning Mavs Donuts ... http://mavericks.scout.com/2/1179502.html 2 Mike Fisher http://mavericks.scout.com/2/1179502.html Mon, 18 Jun 2012 12:33:00 GMT 0 268 Dallas mavericks The shadowed ties date to grade school, extend through college (SMU), can reach the very top (the Mavs). There are connectable dots as powerbroker ‘World Wide Wes’ herds all to their proper destinations. SMU has a new staff because of the herding. And as sources help us track Wes' work, DB.com reveals a new reason the Mavs have a chance at a new star named Deron Williams. Our exclusive report: http://mavericks.scout.com/2/1184241.html 2 Mike Fisher http://mavericks.scout.com/2/1184241.html Sun, 20 May 2012 23:11:00 GMT 1 268 Dallas mavericks 'We've got an extremely attractive situation here,' Rick Carlisle said recently. 'We've got a great owner, it's a great city, the physical setup is second to none in terms of the proximity of everything and this is a franchise that's always going to be in the hunt.' And now Carlisle is locked in as part of the future with a new four-year contract. http://mavericks.scout.com/2/1186658.html 2 Mike Fisher http://mavericks.scout.com/2/1186658.html Tue, 15 May 2012 17:56:00 GMT 0 268 Dallas mavericks It is commonplace for the athlete to play 'dumb jock' when it behooves him. Dirk Nowitzki is no dumb jock, even as he pretends to not know the Mavs plans. He is, and has always been, trusting and intertwined with the work of Cuban and Donnie. And when you watch our exit-day Video Visit with him - Dirk's State of the Mavs Address - you'll see what I mean: http://mavericks.scout.com/2/1184242.html 2 Mike Fisher http://mavericks.scout.com/2/1184242.html Sun, 06 May 2012 21:11:00 GMT 1 268 Dallas mavericks It's another of Cuban’s odd-but-effective Mavs policies: He doesn't renew the coach’s contract until it expires. The policy is in place even for Rick Carlisle, who ‘led us to the Promised Land,’ as Dirk says, but who joins half the roster in contractual limbo. ‘Rick's not going anywhere,’ swears Donnie. But the situation deserves a visit with Dirk, some dollars-counting and complete Premium study: http://mavericks.scout.com/2/1184240.html 2 Mike Fisher http://mavericks.scout.com/2/1184240.html Sun, 06 May 2012 21:11:00 GMT 1 268 Dallas mavericks The Mavs themselves huddled together in a Friday practice, one that could be this group's last together. Meanwhile, a simmering Mavs fanbase huddles together, too, some insisting that it all coulda been different had the practice-court huddle still included Tyson Chandler. A peek inside the two huddles: http://mavericks.scout.com/2/1181954.html 2 Chuck Perry http://mavericks.scout.com/2/1181954.html Fri, 04 May 2012 20:37:00 GMT 0 268 Dallas mavericks Jason Terry makes a staircase announcement ...

More time to sit on a bus and contemplate. With no practice today, more time to contemplate still. We do the same, via Tuesday Mavs Donuts: http://mavericks.scout.com/2/1179507.html 2 Mike Fisher http://mavericks.scout.com/2/1179507.html Tue, 01 May 2012 16:33:00 GMT 0 268 Dallas mavericks Carlisle is calling for an end to the 'bulls---' and we share his anger. We, as fans, are pissed. We’re broken, if only for the moment. We’re ready to give up, fight back, move on, linger, take arms against the naysayers, yield to doubt … to turn in every direction at once, spun by the dizziness of losing two games by a combined four points.

'Trust me.' 'Trust,' however, isn't the issue. As you'll see in our Premium analysis and in-the-game video, the issues are about clutch play, odd bounces and recovering from an 0-1 deficit against a favored foe.
