Mavericks legend Dirk Nowitzki recently stopped by the Dennis and Cowlishaw show on ESPN Dallas 103.3 [KESN-FM] to talk about the NBA finals. Here are some highlights, edited for clarity.
On Toronto winning the NBA finals:
Nowitzki: "Well deserved, that fan base deserves it. It's a fun place to play up there. The building is always full whether they're great or they're going through a tougher time, but I felt like the fans there are always showing up to support, the building's always full. Honestly after watching the Eastern Conference Finals, when they were all in the streets, they basically celebrated like it was the championship already.
