Mike James leaning towards Dallas...

[Kings113]

ESPN.com - Mike James, who has been deciding between the Houston Rockets , Dallas Mavericks and Minnesota Timberwolves is expected to be making his decision Tuesday.

James, the 31 year old point guard who had a breakout year averaging 20.3 points-per-game and 5.8 assists-per-game, recently met with the Western Conference champion Dallas Mavericks ' coach Avery Johnson.

"The biggest 'wow' in this whole situation has been Avery Johnson," James says. "I respect him as a coach, but we have a relationship beyond the court. We've been friends for some years now. I've always respected Avery, even as a player when he had that broke jump shot. But he has a ring and he knows what it takes to win. He's been the person who has wowed me the most through this process."

James has been looking to sign with a title contender throughout the free agency process.

Yea i heard about this too. Its kind of interesting that he's more towards Dallas. I always thought that he wanted a starting position but I guess he just wants to win...

Dallas will be loaded in the back court with Harris, Terry and now possibly James.

yay! i sure hope he makes up his mind soon so i won't have to hear anymore about where mike james is going. solid player, but a bit dramatic, slightly self-righteous (which is more than having an nba-sized ego), aging, and not worth a headline a day.

Why the hell would he want to go to Dallas?

Well, according to the other Mike James thread just posted, maybe he finally thought of that himself.

Why the hell would he want to go to Dallas?

Title run?

But all moot now.
