<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Dallas Morning News - The Dallas Mavericks and Rick Carlisle are still stuck in negotiations on the contract which will make Carlisle the team's head coach, the Dallas Morning News is reporting. Carlisle will still be the team's new coach, but the two parties are trying to leverage the best deal for their own side, which is slowing down the process. Another factor which is not helping the speed is Carlisle shares the same agent as Suns coach Mike D'Antoni, who is currently negotiating with both the Knicks and Bulls.</div> Source
