In the summer of 2010, Mark Cuban & Dirk Nowitzki met to talk about what the future would look like. "Do you believe in me?" Dirk asked. The answer was yes. And less than a year later, they stood together with the Larry O'Brien trophy in hand. @mcuban @swish41 @bdameris

Fifteen years ago today, Dallas won its first NBA championship. Today, Mavs fans look to a future with another young phenom to build around. Hope always returns. That is the gift sports provide. But today is also a reminder that championships are rarely born overnight. @bdameris

This is a great article that includes a story I’ve never heard before. You know as the years pass I focus less publicly and privately on 2011. It was and always will be an indescribably special moment for our organization and community. The memories will always be cherished. But as my longtime partner Harp says to me often “Follow, the beat goes on.” Maybe I’ve just come to believe the best thing in life is be where your feet are as much as you can and don’t look back or ahead too much. But when you hit these milestone anniversaries (10, 15, 20 etc.) it’s healthy to indulge in some reminiscing. For example I have loved @SportsSturm Sturmstack game recaps the last few weeks. And I gotta say this was a great read for reminiscing purposes too!
15 years ago today, the Mavericks won a championship unlike any we'll probably see again. An aging core. One superstar. A playoff path through Portland, Kobe's Lakers, OKC and the Heat's Big Three. It may have started with four simple words from @mcuban to Dirk: "I believe in you." Read about it in my new article for @DMagazine and share your memories below... dmagazine.com/sports/2026/06…

The Mavs are picking at 9. @MFollowill & I discuss why new Mavs GM Mike Schmitz is the guy to get that pick right. Why? Because he has the receipts. Watch here: youtu.be/jYxd3hQq_bI?si=wCPG…

.@bdameris goes back a long time with Masai Ujiri, which makes him very equipped to answer the big question: why is Ujiri the right person to rebuild the Mavericks? Turns out, the reasons aren't limited to basketball. dmagazine.com/sports/2026/05…
