Remember when Mark Cuban would make Dallas a destination point for free agents with plush towels and flat screens and a PlayStation2 for everyone?
Remember when Cuban passed on drafting the Greek Freak because he wanted Dwight Howard, only to whiff on him, too?
Remember when the Mavs signed Deron Williams and DeAndre Jordan too late to matter anymore?
Remember when summer represented high hopes for the Mavs?
Yeah, me neither.
Another free agent frenzy has essentially come and gone, and it's the same ol', same ol' for the local NBA franchise, at least as it pertains to a June wedding with a genuine star.
