Rick Carlisle Compares Mavericks’ Turnovers to a Sex Manual


We posted some of the greatest quotes in NBA history yesterday. It can only be assumed that Dallas Mavericks head coach Rick Carlisle wanted to be included, when he busted out this gem. Per the Star-Telegram: “Dallas Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle was asked about his team’s overwhelming turnover count, and how are the turnovers are being manufactured, when he turned in this two-sentence joke during his pre-game press conference Monday. ‘We’re doing it every way you can do it,’ Carlisle said. ‘If we were a sex manual it’d be a best-seller.’ The Mavs are averaging 19.2 turnovers per game with Shawn Marion leading the way with 13.”
