Five
years ago, I hated the Dallas Mavericks.
Mark Cuban was such a douche and man did Jason Terry got on my nerves. Erick Dampier saying that he can guard Shaquille O’Neal was foolish while then-Dallas
coach Avery Johnson was really
annoying.
Besides,
Dirk Nowitzki looked like a deer
colliding with a ten-wheeler then.
But
now, things are different.
Cuban
was uncharacteristically mellow in the course of the finals and when they won,
instead of gloating, he was very polite. It was... rare.
And
then Avery was gone. Dampier also left and found his way on the other side of
the fence (although he never played in the Finals) which paved the way for the
acquisition of Tyson Chandler, and
Jason Terry let some guy draw a trophy on his body. While I thought that act was
insane, especially since he did this at the start of the season, Dallas had a
bunch of players that I liked like Jason
Kidd, Shawn Marion, Chandler, and Peja Stojakovic so from nerve-wrecking, I
found his antics... cute.
Besides,
Dirk Nowitzki turned choker to winner.
All is
good in Dallas again.
But
there’s one thing I consider as a deal breaker.
Hopefully
Mark Cuban wouldn’t turn heel by signing Lebron
James. To begin with, I doubt Lebron James would ditch the Miami Heat. LBJ isn’t that “evil”
enough especially since the only reason why Miami lost is that he didn’t
contribute as much as the team would have wanted him to contribute.
But
seeing that image brings shiver to my spine.
Ugh.
If
this happens, Dallas should change their logo to this.
