Panini Presents: A Collectible Tribute to the 2010-11 NBA Champion Dallas Mavericks

[The Question]

Sixteen hours later and it’s still hard to believe: The Dallas Mavericks are*NBA Champions.

For those in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex (and most likely all across the country), the Mavericks’ stirring triumph over Dwyane Wade, LeBron James, Chris Bosh and the*favored Miami Heat in six games likely still hasn’t quite sunk in.

Not to worry. As the days pass,*the big-game exploits of Finals MVP Dirk Nowitzki and his stellar supporting cast of Jason Terry, Jason Kidd, J.J. Barea, Tyson Chandler, Shawn Marion*and*seemingly everyone else on the Mavs’ roster*will only grow in stature here locally. Heck, by*the time the next NBA season starts, folks in these parts will be thinking*”repeat.”

But before all of that, we thought we’d pay tribute to the champs as only Panini America — the exclusive manufacturer of the NBA –*can with this greatest-hits collection of some of our sweetest game-worn memorabilia and autographed*Dallas Mavericks trading cards from the last few seasons.

Here’s betting many of the Mavericks fans and collectors viewing the following gallery already have some*of these cards in their collections. If not, know that the prices just went up — way up — following*the events of last night. Enjoy, and congratulations to the 2010-11 NBA Champion Dallas Mavericks. Man, that still sounds weird.
