The Dallas Mavericks finally got their White House visit, and meeting with president Barack Obama.

NBA Finals MVP Dirk Nowitzki has decided he will play for his home country Germany at the European Championship.

The Dallas Mavericks have received championship rings, but not from Owner Mark Cuban.

Every great story needs adversity. Every great story needs a hero, and a villain or two to act as his foil. And if you're a Mavericks fan, this great story has a happy ending: the Dallas Mavericks are the 2011 NBA Champions.

Dirk Nowitzki didn't play his best game of the finals but he didn't need to as the Dallas Mavericks finally got revenge for 2006 and defeated the Miami Heat, 105-95,  to win the NBA Championship.

Dwyane Wade and LeBron James decided to poke fun at Dirk Nowitzki and his 100+ degree fever.

Last night the Dallas Mavericks defeated the Miami Heat in Game 5 of the NBA Finals, 112 – 103, to take their first lead in the series in the finals 3-2.

Game 4 of the NBA Finals came down to the final buzzer after the Miami Heat coughed up a 7 point lead in 4th period in an 86-83 win by the Dallas Mavericks. Mavericks star forward Dirk Nowitzki battled the flu and an over 100 degree fever as he scored 21 points, with 11 rebounds, to lead the Mavs to the win.

The Miami Heat's 'Big 3' held their own and led the Heat to an 88-86 win over the Dallas Mavericks in Game 3 of the NBA Finals. With the win, the Heat now have a 2-1 series lead over the Mavs.
