Caron Butler and the Mavs host the Miami Heat Saturday night without Dwayne Wade. Dwayne suffered from an injury he sustained in the game against (name) .. to his left leg. At game time D. Wade did not play, wore street clothes with his left leg in a walking cast. Caron Butler is doing his thang with defense and scoring.
Sat next to Dallas Weekly sportswriter, LaToya Hardeman, we gossiped and recapped the activities that went on during the all-star weekend. We talked trade talk between Josh Howard and the Mavs. Josh felt snifed in the trade... Some haters speculate that Josh off the court behavior may have cost him to be tradable since he was at the end of his contract with the Dallas Mavericks.
Since being traded to the Wizzards, Howad has been playing well scoring in double figures.. Josh was ready to move on, his ties with the Mavs were severed for whatever reason. However, the fans haven't missed Josh, especially with newly acquired Coron Butler playing and exploding on the open court with his scoring and defense ability.
Since his arrival with the Mavs, the teams defensive energy has improved even Jason Kidd has been playing well.

Tiger Woo....emerges apologizing he got caught.
By K. King
That's right I said it. After 3 months of seclusion, top PGA golfer, Tiger Woods emerges with an apology in a 13 minutes statement he read. Simply he says he aceppts responsibility for being irresposible and selfish. Wife and kids were not there.. Good to see she was not there...I would not have been either...How can a woman put on a happy face after something like that...
Tiger does not need to be in rehab...there is nothing wrong with him...he's simply not in love with Elin and that's ok. At least have the courage to realize it and have a discuss amongst the two of you...nah, that's to much like right...
Even if Elin stays the marriage will never be the same.. It's hard for a woman to accfept the fact that her husband slep with anonther can you imagine double digits...He's been inside these women, he has done things with these women Elin can't even imagine. Tiger is a freak!!!

Valentine Week Recap,
Well. The All-Star game is behind us....still, there's plenty of talk still being talk. Cowboy stadium recorded a 108,000 in attendance for the all-star game. Jerry Jones was seen grinning from cheek to cheek "GO COWBOYS" he said. I call Mr. Jones the ultimate marketer. He knows how to make $$$. I would like to interview Mr. Jones and talk about his talent for making money.. Anyway, Mavs owner Mark Cuban gave Jones a call, after realizing that the Americna Aitlines Centrer (AAC) would not hold the capacity expected. So, Mr. Cuban proposed the idea and as Mr. Cuban said "it was a no-brainer". Cowboys owner Jerry Jones got a chance to showcase his new stadium to the world AND make some $$, in fact, both cities- Dallas and Arlington= made plenty $$$$.
Mavs visit the Orlando Magic Friday night in Orlando... in Dwight Howard's territory. New Maverick Caron Butler (acquired in the 7-3 trade with the Washington Wizzards), is showing the trade for him as a player was a good move, so far. There's still plenty to check out I say.. follows his shot. He hustles, rebounds,and follows his shot, somkething the Mavs lacked.
When interviewing coach Rick Carlise I would always ask the question about offensive boards.. He would give some babble about 2 up front, 3 back on defense....yeah, yeah, the 2 up front was never following the shot they were running back on defense too....no second chance points.. Hopefully with the addition of Caron Butler and Brandon Haewood the Mavs will become a defense threat and known for their offenseive boards ability.
Haven't seen the third player in the trade, Stevenson... He hasn't played a minute of playing time..Maybe he was picked up for "cash consideration" as Donnie Nelson, Mavs president of basketball operations said during a released statement. Brandon Haewood offers dominance in the middle. He's a natural shot blocker and can guard with the best of 'em... Just what the Mavericks need a shot blocker and a defender who can make opposingplayers think twice about driving to the basket.
For the ladies learning the game, it means the Mavericks traded for player to win and for cash considerations
Fans seem to think the Mavs made a great move with this trade, some don't..

Mavericks trade Josh Howard
At first, the trade didn't make since to me. Afterall, Josh was a good defensive player and great ball handler, he could score, run and pass the ball and provide a good hustle off the bench. What I didn't realize is that Josh was at the end of his seven year contract plaque by injuries and off the court differences. It was said he became less involved in team play, which I found hard to believe, you could sense he was unhappy with his position with the team but he would never say it out loud.
He continue to play his game as Coach Carlise would allow. "Josh started his career with Dallas and it's hard to see him go" said Mavs GM Donnie Nelson.

Mavs Win!
The Dallas Mavericks hosts Don Nelson and the Golden State Warriors tonight at the American Airline Center. Mavericks are 2nd behind the San Antonio Spurs and must win this game against the Warriors to stay ahead.
Spoke with Mark Cuban tonight regarding the trade between Chris Humphries and Eduardo Najera. I asked him to explain to me why this particular trade was necessary? Mr Cuban, explain to me and the fans why this particular trade makes sense? Mr. Cuban this trade does not make sense to me, please explain the reason for trading Chris Humphries for Najera?
" It makes all the sense in the world. He'll provide energy off the bench -scoring- and besides Chris wasn't getting the minutes behind Damp and Gooden" . I pressed, Mr. Cuban, may I call you Mark?" Humphries provided the same thing that you traded Najera for? "Bottom line, it makes sense finacially...always the bottom line. Trading Humphries allows us leverage under the salary cap". Cuban added.
After I spoke to Mavs owner, Mark Cuban, I visited with Eduardo Najera on his return back to Dallas. " I love being back. I still own property in Dallas so I really haven't left. I've been gone 5 1/2 years." The fans treated me with love when I played here, so I'm glad to be back".
Ladies, you didn't have a chance to get to see the handsome Chris Humphries play. Look for him with the New Jersey Nets.
Spoke with Josh Howard about the usual stuff about the game, he referred me to coach Rick Carlise on some questions. For the most part, though, Howard is just trying to play his role and do what coach Carlise ask of him.
