The first basketball fan usually roots for his hometown Chicago Bulls.
But in an East Room ceremony Monday, he praised Ccach Rick Carlisle and Mavericks stars, including German-born forward Dirk Nowitzki, for defeating the Heat in six games last June.
The victory was sweet revenge for Dallas after it blew an NBA Finals lead to the Heat five years earlier. The victory also upended the hope of Heat superstars LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh for a championship in their first year playing together.
Talk about an awesomely horrible rendition of Prince’s classic “Purple Rain”. A couple days ago, Mavs owner Mark Cuban sang his heart out to the tune at a local Dallas karaoke bar,
No other TEAM HAS EVER DONE THIS in the opponents city, The Mavs are in CLUB LIV Right now with Billionaire Mark Cuban. Mark Cuban the owner of the Dallas Mavs is the only Happy CUBAN on South Beach 2night, LOL
Charlie Sheen made a surprise drop-in on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Monday night, interrupting Jimmy's interview with Mark Cuban, an entrepreneur and owner of the Dallas Mavericks. As if to prove Sheen's omnipresent properties, Jimmy was asking Cuban about working with Sheen on some of his new endeavors, at which point Mr. Tigerblood himself magically appeared from offstage, greeted the audience, gave Jimmy a full-on mouth kiss, handed out t-shirts, and then disappeared from whence he came.
During his brief stay, he also presented Jimmy with a coffee mug decorated with printed-out illustrated foxes, telling the host he'd let him figure out the significance. Sounding like a character on an Adult Swim cartoon, Sheen narrated the entire exchange thusly: "I brought you a gift. It's a mug. It's got a fox on it." Now, that should be on a t-shirt.
