"Jason Terry was met Thursday by a barrage of media members who were armed with questions about whether Tyson Chandler will wear a Dallas Mavericks uniform again.

It was Terry's first time in American Airlines Center since the Mavs staged a victory parade on June 16 after their first world championship. And Chandler, who is a free agent, is on everybody's mind.

"Without Tyson on this team last year I just don't know if we'd win the championship," Terry said. "I spoke to him every day for the last two weeks, and he wants to be here.

"He wants to be a Maverick next year and now it's up to ownership to make it happen.""
