Unrestricted free agent Mike James' talks with the Mavericks have been ongoing, according to RealGM.com. "The expectation is he will sign, he deserves it and so we will see how it shakes out," James' agent, Bernie Lee said. "Mike simply wants an opportunity like everyone else to prove his worth." James has been around the block with 11 different NBA franchises and the 38-year-old guard is on his last legs as a pro. The Mavericks added tons of depth at guard this offseason, so it doesn't really add up that they would want have additional depth. While James' record of 16-7 as a starter last season with the Mavs is impressive, it'll be tough for Dallas to make room for him.
