Yeah, that's confirmed, pretty much.
I have read some things (message boards, nothing concrete enough to post) that lead me to believe the Mavs did give Holmes a try, but didn't want him badly enough, for whatever reason, to convince them to operate under the cap and use space on him. Instead, they tried to get him through a sign and trade, and I'm honestly unclear as to whether it was he or SAC who shut that down.
Either way, they clearly didn't want to operate under, or maybe the targets who would've been worth doing that gave them the brush off.
