Rick Carlisle rips OJ Mayo after loss to Grizzlies

OJ Mayo has been on of the most inconsistent players on a disappointing Dallas Mavericks team this season. He played fairly well at the start of the season with Dirk Nowitzki nursing an injury, but Mayo has had a tendency to disappear for nights at a time over the past month or so.
