    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Fort Worth Star-Telegram - Doug Christie?s run with the Mavericks could be coming to an end in the next few days.

    Christie left the team last week to get a second opinion on a sore left ankle in Seattle. Mavs owner Mark Cuban acknowledged Tuesday night that Christie may elect not to return.

    "His doctors say the ankle is OK, but not perfect," Cuban said before the game against Houston. "Doug is deciding what he wants to do."

    Retirement is an option. Cuban expects a decision before the end of the week.

    Christie signed a three-year contract with the Mavs during the off-season, but only the first season at $3.15 million was guaranteed. The Mavs could also be discussing a settlement with the veteran guard.</div>

    Hot damn!

    The Mavs should get rid of him while they still can. Like I said in the other thread, Christie's washed up. Everyone's still holding onto the memories of his first few seasons in Sacramento, but those days are long gone. His heart just doesn't seem in the game anymore. Right now it'd be a smart and ecomonical decision to let him walk. At least you'd salvage some cap room out of the deal.

    The Dallas Mavericks waived Doug Christie, he will probably retire now.

    What does everyone think of that?

    <font color=""Blue"">eh, I dont mind the Mavs getting rid of him. I mean, Marquis is a great addition to the starting lineup IMO. Even when Christie was starting, Marquis was preforming better than him. Marquis was even getting more playing time.</font>
