Josh Howard Dines With New Mavericks Coach

Josh Howard and Rick Carlisle went to dinner Wednesday night, and the new coach of the Mavericks picked up the bill. Looks like their relationship is off on the right foot. "From what I've heard, he's a great coach,"Howard said Thursday afternoon. "The guys I talked to had nothing but good things to say. I'm looking forward to working with Coach next year. "He's an X&O's guy and he wants to win. He's really excited about this situation and the pieces he has.” (link)
