Singleton a lock for the '08-'09 season
Not really a huge surprise here...
The Dallas Mavericks have signed forward James Singleton to a guaranteed contract today, according to his agent.
I would be surprised, and disappointed even if they guaranteed McLeod. From what I saw with his play in the SL, he was below that of Miles, and possibly even Low.

It's late, no SL games yesterday, and there's not a lot of Mavs stuff out there. So when I cant sleep, you can count on me to either vent or ramble. This morning, its probably ramble. My first victim? Jason Kidd
Sometimes, in wake of what went on with Avery and him being the leader of this squad for so many years, Josh Howard rumors, Dirk's role on this team, Bass ...

Hat-tip to Coolste, who has been keeping us updated with all things Dirk related right now after Germany qualified for the Olympics. Coolste also notes in the comments that there is a petition out there for Dirk carrying the National flag at the Olympics . Not sure how legit this is, but you never know. If it could help Dirk, I am all for it.

Rumors, Rumors, Rumors. Its all we have really at this point in the year to get REALLY excited about. That is of course, besides the Oylmpics and some summer league stuff.
But what we all want to know is, will the top 7 guys currently signed to the Mavs, actually be the top 7 that we open the '08-'09 season with?
Maggette, Artest and now add Smith to the mix. ...

Germany advances into the Olympics with a win over JJB and Puerto Rico this morning . That marked the final game in the Athens tournament. JJB played pretty well for PR with Carlos Arroyo being out, scoring 18 points in 29 minutes. But he had a horrific time with his 3 ball, going 1-8 beyond the ark.
Here is the official FIBA recap and Boxscore of today's game.

Sorry I've been M.I.A. the past few days, I've been super busy. Here some up-to-date links on the Mavs.
First off, the big talk has been all about Ron Artest. What started out on db.com as some inside scoop as to the Mavs looking at Artest, has been blown up all over the internet from SI.com (who pretty much ripped off Mike Fisher and David Lord without any giving them any ...

Sam Amick: Mavs offer Bass and Stackhouse for Artest
Yet another internet rumor that gets our hopes up, only to let them back down again... But at least we are trying, and that counts for something... right?
According to a source close to Dallas, the Mavs have offered Brandon Bass and Jerry Stackhouse for the Kings small forward. The chatter was first reported by Hoopsworld here, ...

Mike Fisher and David Lord have written a segment, in which they give us a preview of some ways that the Mavs could pull a Ron Artest deal . They say its proactive scoop, that there have been internal conversations within the Mavs organization on how realistic it is that we could somehow land him here and undoubtedly fill our black hole at the 2/3 (assuming Josh is not included in the ...

If your following the Summer league team, you may have noticed that no one has really stood out as being a rotational type guy for the 08-09 season. Maybe that was a lot to ask, maybe I was putting a little too much stock into this years summer squad, but I was at ...

Hmmmm... this is intersting. Based upon what we have heard from the Mavs FO the past few months, I dont see how this is possible.

Singleton (AKA Damp 2.0) this year's Brandon Bass?
Pretty interesting read. Suprisingly he has been one of the best players on the Mavs summer league team... well, at least yesterday he was with 17 points and 8 boards. I wasnt all that impressed with him the first game against the Clips, but then again, I wasnt really impressed with anyone else from that game either.
At 6'8", 230 ...

K, so I am opening this up early, to poll and see if we want to do live threading on the tape delay, or online. I know, I know, its summer league basketball... and it was mostly Marie and I last game , but I figure there to be a few more for a Sunday night game.
From what I have gathered from other people who tried to use the online feeds the other day, it had some issues. ...

For those of you who missed the game, or who were unable to watch because it ended up stating at 8:30 ish, I think its fair to say that I took away two things from our 86-69 loss .
1. We have a Mini-Damp, or Damp clone as Marie and I commonly reffered to him as last night, who fumbles the ball, has a had time finishing around the rim, huge upper body, headband, socks, BUT.... can ...

Sorry this is late.. I am just starting the game on TiVo
BTW we signed Wright and Najera signed with the Nets (Thanks Marie!)
While I like the signing of Wright, it seems like we have quite a log-jam at this position of spare-part guys who are either really young or really old, offensive minded or defensive minded... I have a bad feeling we have been down this ...

First off, Diop. Looks like the Mavs did in fact try to complete a S&T for Diop which included Stackhouse. The Nets thought though that Stack would not be a good fit for a team that is rebuilding and that he would prevent CDR from developing. So it never happened on the Nets side. This of course led us to sign Diop for more money and time than what the Mavs ...
