Dallas Mavericks Blog | ESPN Dallas — ESPNDallas.com will compare the Mavericks and Clippers in five facets -- other than money -- that could play a role in Chris Paul's free agency decision in a one-per-day series: owners/front office, coaches, co-stars, supporting casts and franchise tradition. We'll focus on Dwight Howard next week. There’s one reason why Chris Paul might consider leaving millions of dollars on the table to say farewell to a 56-win team with a lot of young talent.

Title Mavs tracker: Miserable series ends for Kidd, Chandler

Dallas Mavericks Blog | ESPN Dallas — The Mavericks aren’t in the playoffs for the first time since 2000, so we have to find something to fill the time this spring.

How well would Jarrett Jack fit with Mavs?

Dallas Mavericks Blog | ESPN Dallas — In the likely event that the Mavericks have to go to Plan B to find a point guard, Jarrett Jack’s name should be at or near the top of the list. There are a lot of things to like about Jack. He’s got a deadly midrange jumper and an effective floater, the kind of shots that come in bunches for guards who run pick-and-pops with Dirk Nowitzki. He doesn’t commit many turnovers. He possesses the kind of mental and physical toughness Rick Carlisle wants from his point guards.

Good news for Mavs: Clippers might keep Vinny Del Negro

Dallas Mavericks Blog | ESPN Dallas — Want a reason to feel a little bit better about the Mavericks’ long shot of landing Chris Paul this summer? Here you go: The Clippers are seriously considering keeping head coach Vinny Del Negro, sources told ESPN.com’s Marc Stein and Ramona Shelburne. This would be a classic Donald Sterling decision. He’d rather pinch pennies than put his team in the best possible position to win. Why not part ways with a clearly overmatched head coach and grant Paul the right commonly given to franchise players to help pick an upgrade?
