I didn't hear that about Houston, but maybe that's an option. You may be right.
It does sound weird though... that an organization responds to something that hasn't been asked. I mean it was pretty strange for the Knicks to target two coaches under contract to begin with. And we do know the Knicks organization is pretty weird from all reports, and, by the same token, the Mavs are relatively new to this.
And I suspect if Kidd were actually interested, we would more likely hear a rumor on that possibility too. Silence is really deadly for our rumor-starved brains.
