We will never get rid of flopping – Dirk Nowitzki

via ESPN   Dirk Nowitzki has a realistic view of flopping. It will never be eliminated entirely. That’s true.

Green Target: Chris Kaman

Last summer, I wanted us to pick up Chris Kaman. I thought his scoring and KG teaching him how to play defense will help our roster get to where we want to be. In the Summer, Chris Kaman chose to team up with his Olympic teammate Dirk Nowitzki and sign with the Mavs. He had an up and down season. He averaged his lowest point per game total since 2007 by averaging 10.5 points and...
