Tim Cowlishaw, sports columnist for SportsDayDFW.com and The Dallas Morning News, author of Drunk on Sports and panelist on ESPN's "Around the Horn," answered questions about the Cowboys, Rangers, Mavericks and local college sports during a live chat recently. Here are some highlights:
Where do you rank Rick Carlisle as far as current NBA coaches? You think he gets a little overrated because of one miraculous Dirk-led Finals run?
Cowlishaw: I wouldn't say that because you have to look at it this way. How many times at the end of the season do you say the Mavericks didn't go as far as they should have or didn't win as many games as they were expected to on paper?
