Dallas Morning News


Congrats to the Dallas Mavericks who have just defeated the Miami Heat to win their first NBA Championship!  The Dallas Morning News Reports:
As snow fell on a steamy June night, pigs suddenly grew wings and Maverick fans will wake up today and hit every green light on the way to work.
Yes, the Mavericks are NBAchampions.
The little franchise that never could, just did.
Anything’s possible.
The Mavericks whipped Miami 105-95 Sunday night to finish off a rugged, mesmerizing NBA Finals by beating the Heat 4-2 in the best-of-seven series.
It’s the first championship for the Mavericks, who have been in existence since 1980. It will validate the careers of Dirk Nowitzki , Jason Kidd, Jason Terry and everybody associated with the organization. It’s the first title of any kind for a Dallas sports team since the Stars won the NHLchampionship in 1999.
That it happened on Miami’s home court made it just a little sweeter. It was five years ago that the Heat danced and partied at American Airlines Centerin Dallas when the Mavericks lost by the same 4-2 series result.
Redemption has never tasted so sweet.
