Heard It Through the Bare Grapevine

More to come in some separate posts, but here’s a little bit of link food for the junkies out there.

• Just in case you were really, really excited about the Mavs potentially signing Quinton Ross.
• Avery Johnson could be back on the bench next season, where he’ll have all kinds of fun putting in his defensive system with Charlie Villanueva and Ben Gordon.
• Mavs’ target Marcin Gortat headlines John Hollinger’s list of underground free agents.
• Players with ties to the Mavs are popping up on summer league rosters in the Eastern Conference: Mavs’ second rounder Nick Fazekas and workout prospect Kevin Rogers will be playing for the Celtics this summer, while 2006 first rounder Maurice Ager will play for the Magic along with Jeremy Pargo and Courtney Fells, who the Mavs worked out prior to the draft.
