Are you citing this note, or a later one?
"I've heard from a few well-placed observers this week who believe that the Mavericks would ultimately do just that — just as the Rockets have made it clear they plan to do if the Knicks indeed tried to pursue Ime Udoka."
If Stein changed his note, the waffling is weird. (So is Mavs FO these days, of course.) Both are non-reports, of course, but Stein using the euphemism "well-placed observers" is one that very often is citing team officials who just don't want to be quoted or named.
