    Season of Chandlers

    Chandlers help make Dallas Mavericks one of this season's toughest opponents

    Matthew Postins
    Oct 28, 2014 | 9:31 am

    No Western Conference team — in fact, no team the San Antonio Spurs played last postseason — gave them bigger fits than the Dallas Mavericks. The Mavs were the only team to push the Spurs to seven games and, if a few things had broken differently, the Mavs might have pushed the Spurs right out of the postseason.

    Instead, the Spurs won their fifth NBA title.

    So, logically, one assumes that the Mavericks are closer to being a contender in the Western Conference, correct? Mark Cuban must have thought so as he spent, traded and remade his roster yet again in pursuit of giving Dirk Nowitzki one more shot at an NBA title. Nowitzki took a massive pay cut to help Cuban out financially, by the way.

    Someday, the 2014-15 season might become the season of the Chandlers.

    NBA general managers considered Parsons the second-most surprising free-agent signing of the offseason and the Chandler trade the most underrated acquisition.

    Tyson Chandler is back in Dallas, thanks to a trade with the New York Knicks in which the Mavs gave up four players, all of which were replaceable (though they’ll miss Jose Calderon’s accuracy from the 3-point line). In retrospect, perhaps it wasn’t the right move to send Chandler packing after the Mavs won the 2011 NBA title, as in that one season Chandler became the best defensive center in the team’s history (sorry, James Donaldson).

    No one the Mavs inserted in Chandler’s position the past three seasons came close to delivering the intimidation Chandler provides in the paint. So he’s back — and in the final year of his Knicks contract, which means Cuban isn’t on the hook for anything if something goes south.

    The Mavs stole Chandler Parsons from the Houston Rockets, who were too busy trying to lure Carmelo Anthony and Chris Bosh to Space City to try and keep him. Well, here’s the accepted version. The Rockets told Parsons to shop his services as a restricted free agent and they would match the offer. The Mavs offered Parsons $46 million over three years.

    When the clock counted down to match the offer, the Rockets balked and tried to get the Mavs to do a sign-and-trade instead. The Mavs declined. The Rockets received nothing. Somewhere, Cuban grinned.

    NBA general managers considered Parsons the second-most surprising free-agent signing of the offseason, behind LeBron James’ going back to Cleveland. They also ranked the Chandler trade the most underrated acquisition of the offseason.

    So where does all of this leave the Mavs? Well, from here, they have the “big three” that Cuban has wanted for the past few years, though it’s not the superstar constellation one would expect. In this case, it’s Nowitzki, Parsons and last year’s big free-agent acquisition, Monta Ellis.

    Between the three they averaged 57.3 points per game in 2013-14. As a comparison, look at the “big three” that set off the craze in Miami — Bosh, Dwyane Wade and James.

    They averaged a combined 62.3 points per game last season. This season, with James now in Cleveland, his new “big three,” Kevin Love and Kyrie Irving, averaged 74.0 points per game last year. That’s bound to come down this season as they learn to share the ball.

    Chandler gives head coach Rick Carlisle the defensive enforcer inside that he’s craved, one that should transform the unit and give it the backbone it had in 2010-11. During the last four seasons, Chandler has averaged nearly 10 rebounds and one blocked shot per game. Last year’s starting center, Samuel Dalembert, has averaged two rebounds fewer over his career.

    In full, these changes — along with the acquisition of guards Raymond Felton and Jameer Nelson, and the re-signing of Devin Harris — should make the Mavs one of the Western Conference’s toughest opponents this season.

    Don’t believe me? Ask the Spurs, the Mavs’ season-opening opponent Tuesday. They’re not quaking in their boots because they are the Spurs, after all. But you can bet head coach Gregg Popovich doesn’t want the Mavs in the first round of the playoffs again, either.

    Dallas Wings new women's basketball stars get warm welcome from city

    The Dallas Wings No. 1 draft pick Paige Bueckers brings big hopes for fans in the 2025 season

    The newest members of women's basketball team the Dallas Wings are already making waves: Paige Bueckers, the No. 1 pick in the 2025 WNBA Draft, and her fellow new recruits were welcomed by a press conference at Dallas City Hall on April 23 — part of the Dallas Wings' official introduction of the rookie class.

    According to a releasae, Dallas Wings draftees Paige Bueckers, Aziaha James, Madison Scott, JJ Quinerly, and Aaronette Vonleh were welcomed by Mayor Eric Johnson and City Manager Kimberly Bizor Tolbert, and gifted with cowboy hats by the City of Dallas Economic Development Corporation.

    The team will start the 2025-2026 season playing at the Memorial Arena in the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center. Their home arena is College Park Center on the UT Arlington campus, with one exception: They'll be playing their June 27 game against the Indiana Fever, featuring superstar Caitlin Clark, at American Airlines Center in Dallas.

    Fans will have to pony up the big bucks for that epic game, with the price for two tickets starting at $255, although the upper 300 level has not yet been opened for sale. Those wanting to sit near the floor behind the baseline will run themselves a pretty $1,205 for two seats.

    After Clark joined the WNBA in 2024, almost half of the other teams in the league moved their home games against the Fever to larger arenas. All of the other Wings home games are currently scheduled to take place at College Park Center.

    If all goes as planned, 2025 will be the last season for the Wings at that venue. In 2024, the team announced plans to move to the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center Dallas Memorial Arena in Dallas, starting with the 2026 season.

    Bueckers joins the Wings after closing out her college career by winning her first national championship, with Connecticut dominating the previous champions, South Carolina, 82-59. She's considered by many to be the league's next superstar.

    The 2025 Dallas Wings season comes with much anticipation. Since the end of the 2024 season, the Wings have revamped their front office, which included the hiring of Executive Vice President of Basketball Operations and General Manager Curt Miller and Head Coach Chris Koclanes. In addition to the 2025 WNBA Draft Class, Miller made significant roster moves during free agency which included signing reigning WNBA Most Improved Player DiJonai Carrington, 2022 All-Rookie Team pick NaLyssa Smith, former Wings guard Tyasha Harris and 2020 All-WNBA Second Team member Myisha Hines-Allen.
