Tuesday Morning Links
Obviously the site received a face-lift this morning.... thoughts?
Challenges coming fast for Dallas Mavericks' Jason Kidd | Eddie Sefko
"For J-Kidd, the one thing I love about these two games is that he'll take the personal challenge," assistant coach Darrell Armstrong said Monday. "He looks forward to it. They're probably the two top point guards in the league – after J-Kidd. I guarantee you he's looking forward to that challenge."
"That's as tough as it comes, those two guys," Ross said. "They're two All-Stars and it's going to be tough. They got young legs. But Jason knows how to guard. He'll do fine."
Back to Basics | Salt Lake Tribune
Having gone a disastrous 3-18 in the second game of back-to-back sets last season, the Jazz will get their first chance to make amends beginning tonight at Dallas. The Jazz gave up an average of 109.1 points in those 21 games last season
DB.com talks Erick Dampier
"Drew's a good guy, and a good player," Damp tells me. "He's learning what we need him to do, and he's going to be an asset to this team. But I have confidence in what I contribute. There's a good reason for me to be in there (starting)."
Drew Gooden is quickly establishing himself as the dumbest Mav - on and off the court. He's doubtful for tonight's game.
'Gooden did not play in the game and was dressed in street clothes behind the bench. According to Outsports.com, a Web site devoted to gay issues in sports, Gooden yelled a homophobic slur at a pair of fans seated near the Mavericks' bench. Gooden yelled the slur at actor Chris Wylde, who is not gay and was attending the game with a friend, the Web site reported. Mavericks owner Mark Cuban would not comment, but according to the Web site, he told Wylde in an e-mail that the team would deal with Gooden internally.'
UPDATE: A "mavericks source" has told the DMN that Gooden didn't say anything, but that someone with Gooden did.

I'm not wild about the facelift
But you didn’t really change all that much so I can live with it. I’ll never understand while perfectly good websites will make unnecessary changes (Facebook, Yahoo!, etc.) but whatever.

site does not look better.
to be politely.
From Sefko:
Drew Gooden, under fire for allegedly saying a homophobic remark at a Los Angeles Clippers fan, was not the person who uttered the comments, according to a Mavericks’ source.
The comments in question came from somebody who was with Gooden, the source said.
Gooden was at the Mavericks’ shootaround this morning, but did not comment to media members. A team staff member said he possibly would talk before tonight’s game against Utah.
There are those in the Mavericks’ organization who believe that the story could take a U-turn before it’s done.
The interesting part will come when the tape from the police car is released, if it is. Only then will we know how Richardson police handled Popeye and whether or not he resisted arrest, which he has not been charged for, by the way.

"There were arms coming from everywhere, and I knew they weren’t going for the ball," Miller said. "I was just trying to get [the shot] up before they called some crap like ‘on the ground.’ "
"What do you want me to do?" Wright asked. "Do you want me to Derek Fisher him?"
"Give them some fucking credit, i mean for real." Jackson said.
"I just fell on my face for no reason," Bryant deadpanned. "I'm a klutz."
"Fucking right i'm preachin' it!" Carlisle replied.
"Rough life, isn't it. It's tough all over, isn't it." Smith chuckled.

There are 2 things that could really get me on board with this Mavs team
13. A source close to the Mavs tells me that if the Clippers are in “sale” mode in December, he thinks Camby is a more likely target for the Mavs than Kaman, because Camby’s contract is much more favorable, and because the Mavs have been leery of Kaman’s medical issues.
Of added relevance, even though Camby would be an expiring contract, the Mavs would get him with full Bird rights intact; that means they could sign him to a new deal in the summer at any mutually agreeable amount, without having to use any of their annual cap exceptions or 2010 trade assets to do so, or could perhaps include him as an asset as part of a sign-and-trade.

Marcus Camby is one
The other would be if Roddy B showing well enough in practice and limited game opportunity to force his way into the rotation. Youthful exuberance is missing.
