On Deron Williams narrowing it down to the Mavericks and the Nets:

(Eddie) Sefko: “I think Mark Cuban has the edge here. I mean you’re looking at a guy who has very good ties to Dallas. His wife is from here. His mom is from the area. There is no state income tax. When you’re talking about 70-80 million dollars, then the state income tax kind of has a big impact. I think there are a lot things for him to like. With that said, the Nets aren’t going to lay over. They’ve got plenty of money to throw at him.”
