The Optimist Archives

February 4 - vs. Dallas Mavericks
But that certainly doesn’t mean we have to be bad hosts when the World Champion Dallas Mavericks roll into town. In fact, I would personally like to extend the World Champs – who, if I’m not mistaken, knocked off the Miami Heat in last year’s Finals – every courtesy as NBA visitors. And I think you Clevelanders should do the same. If you see Dirk Nowitzki or Jason Terry walking around Tower City, offer to buy them a medium Orange Julius or a hot pretzel. At the very least, welcome them to our humble city and congratulate them on a job well done. Later that night, you can cheer on our beloved Cavaliers as they gear up to smote Rick Carlisle’s squad at The Q. The Mavericks will also be on the second half of a back-to-back – taking on a tough Indiana Pacers team on Friday evening in Dallas.
