Josh Howard will be back tonight after missing the game against the Clippers.
Eddie Sefko had this
Josh Howard made it back from a one-game absence to tend to personal matters in North Carolina and went through a full-fledged practice with the Mavericks at the morning shootaround at ARCO Arena.
With four days and no games coming up, plus the fact that the Mavericks did not practice Sunday, the zesty workout was not out of the ordinary.
Howard said he spent much of the morning "trying to find my shot.''
Asked if he did, he said: "Uh-uh. I’ll find it later on tonight.''
Avery Johnson dished out a compliment to Howard, saying there are five different areas that the Mavericks can suffer in when Howard is not available.
In other Howard news, he has officially gotten rid of his braces, for good this time, he said. He got them off in the summer, but didn't wear a retainer that he was supposed to, so his teeth shifted and the braces went back on. He got them off about 10 days ago and vows that he'll never have to go back to them.
Yes, he's wearing the retainer when he's supposed to.Chris Webber says he will be back in the league in 2 weeks. Do the Mavs need to make a play for this guy? Reunite two members of the fab five in him and Juwan Howard. If they do who do they cut there roster is full at 15 and they are playing there best basketball of the season.
Go Mavs help the healing of the horrible end to another disappointment in metroplex sports history.
