The Dallas Mavericks are firmly in the mix to sign free-agent
point guard Jeremy Lin, according to league sources.
Dallas has limited funds to offer, but sources told ESPN.com that
Lin is giving the Mavericks strong consideration even though he
can likely make more money elsewhere.
Lin's relationship with Mavericks forward Chandler Parsons from
their days as teammates in Houston, sources said, has kept Dallas
in the race despite its lack of financial flexibility. Parsons, of
course, had a huge hand in the recruiting of DeAndre Jordan to
the Mavericks in the richest free-agent score in team history.
Dallas has a huge hole at point guard after the free-agent
departures of Monta Ellis (to Indiana) and Rajon Rondo (to
Sacramento). The Mavericks willingly let those players go to
create the needed salary-cap space to strike deals with Jordan and
Wes Matthews, but they now need a starting point guard.
The Mavericks are close to striking a deal to re-sign veteran
guard J.J. Barea and still have Raymond Felton on the books, but
Lin has emerged as Dallas' top free-agent priority at this point
after the team landed Jordan and Matthews.
One possibility, sources said, is that the Mavericks could
waive-and-stretch Felton's contract if they get a commitment from
Lin to create a salary slot of $2.6 million.
The Mavs also have the room exception of $2.8 million available, a
slot that could go to Lin or Barea.

1。小牛缺先发PG 可是没剩多少钱了
2。林去别队可以拿比较多钱,可是小牛有他的好碰友 Parsons
3。目前小牛只剩2.8M 若舍弃Felton 也许可以再挤出2.6M
