Bob Ortegel, the colorful, opinionated and sometimes polarizing analyst on Dallas Mavericks broadcasts, will enter his 21st season with the team back in his more familiar seat next to play-by-play man Mark Followill on the television broadcast, multiple sources confirmed Thursday. Mavericks owner Mark Cuban switched the broadcast teams before last season by swapping the club’s two longstanding color commentators. Ortegel, a stalwart on the TV broadcast, moved to radio while Brad Davis took his straightforward approach to television.
