What a wasted work day - even my boss can't stop reading or talking about the Mavs, and I'm pretty sure he didn't start watching until we swept the Lakers...
Just let us go home, please!
It's made even worse because everybody in my company (dozens of offices worldwide) has caught wind that I'm the resident "Mavs expert," so I'm getting all kinds of vapid emails asking questions that a quick Google search could probably answer, but I'm having fun with it...
Q: What position does Dirk play?
A: The big white guy.
Q: Why does coach keep playing the little guy? What about Rodger Boo-bo?
A: Um, I'm pretty sure "Rodger Boo-bo" was deported back to France for using incorrect terminology when referring to Freedom Fries....
Q: Why doesn't Dirk dunk more?
A: Because he's trying to give the other team a fighting chance - it'll make the Hollywood adaptation more dramatic.
