Deron Williams turns 28 today and the Brooklyn Nets, or least some creative folks in the borough, wished him a happy birthday this morning with a giant-sized card.

PODCAST
Mavs F Brian Cardinal talks about playing in Dirk Nowitzki's celebrity baseball game, courting Deron Williams and more.

Williams' wife, Amy, tweeted a picture of the card parked -- yes, parked -- in front of their home. For scale, the Williamses' two boys are posed next to the card in their stroller.

Over the weekend, ESPN.com's Marc Stein reported that Williams has narrowed his choice of teams to the Brooklyn-bound Nets and his hometown Dallas Mavericks.

Williams becomes a free agent Sunday, the first day teams can talk to players and agents. Williams is expected to make his decision quickly.

So, did anyone in Dallas at least send flowers?
