LeBron and the Dallas Mavericks: The ridiculous insanity continues. “The host city for the 2010 All-Star Game is Long Shot City. That said, Dallas has more in its favor than you think. Dirk Nowitzki would appear to be the best big man LeBron could conceivably hook up with next summer, which would also mean playing with the Mavs’ lead recruiter and James’ close friend Jason Kidd. It doesn’t hurt that LeBron is said to be fond of the area and undoubtedly loves the Cowboys as much as or more than he loves the Yankees. Or that Mark Cuban was the NBA’s original spare-no-expense owner in the new millennium.” The day someone mentions the Kings, we take some kind of drastic measures. [ESPN]
