Rick Carlisle called Darren Collison the Mavericks "starting point guard" following Tuesday's win. Collison had 12 points, three boards, six assists and five steals in 30 minutes, and Carlisle made it clear that Collison is "our starting point guard." It sounds as if Dominique Jones' promotion to the starting lineup was temporary and Collison's benching was designed to light a fire under him.
