Game One

Wow!

Mavericks win 90 - 80! The Mavericks didn't play their best game, Dirk only scored 16 points and Josh Howard only scored 10. But, I imagine Miami will argue they didn't play their best game either. It is going to be a great series.

On another note, this series is providing more examples of why I like Mark Cuban. Sure, he is a dork and can be a jerk but so can I so who am I to criticize. Besides, bringing a winner to Dallas, he is unlike any other sports owner.

He went down and shot baskets before the game because he couldn't pass on the opportunity to be on the NBA Finals floor. What other owner in sports would appreciate this? They are more concerned with who they are entertaining in their suite. Also, he did an interview with ABC last night just 30 minutes before tip off while he was working out on a stair climber. And, he is blogging during the game, what other owner will give you that kind of access.
