{"id":4837,"count":177,"description":"The <a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/tag\/nba-players\/\">NBA<\/a> agreed to add a franchise in Dallas after experiencing a loss of profits and ratings in the late '70s. The 1962 TV western series <em>Maverick<\/em> inspired the franchise's name, and <a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/roy-tarpley-tragically-threw-away-hall-fame-nba-career\/\">Dick Motta<\/a> became the team's first head coach in 1980.\r\n\r\nThe Mavericks <a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/how-much-did-mark-cuban-pay-for-the-dallas-mavericks\/\">became a consistent playoff team<\/a> in the '80s thanks to All-Stars like Mark Aguirre and Rolando Blackman. A rebuild in the '90s led to the addition of Dirk Nowitzki, who guided the franchise to its first NBA championship in 2011 and spent 21 seasons with the team. <a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/jason-kidd-puts-luka-doncic-on-blast-for-overly-exercising-superstar-influence\/\">Luka Doncic arrived<\/a> in Dallas via the 2018 NBA Draft. Along with Kristaps Porzingis, the Mavericks returned to the playoffs in 2019. After longtime leader <a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/pacers-coach-rick-carlisle-no-regrets-taking-over-star-less-team\/\">Rick Carlisle's<\/a> resignation in 2021, Jason Kidd became the new head coach.\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li><strong>Established:<\/strong> 1980<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Championships: <\/strong>NBA Championship (2011)<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Additional achievements:<\/strong> two conference titles (2006, 2011) and four division titles (1987, 2007, 2010, 2021)<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Arena:\u00a0<\/strong>American Airlines Center<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n<hr \/>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mavs.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Visit the Dallas Mavericks team page.<\/em><\/a>\r\n<div class=\"main__top mb--baseline\">\r\n<div class=\"desc--archive-page entry archive-entry\">\r\n<h4>Read the latest articles about the Dallas Mavericks:<\/h4>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>","link":"https:\/\/sports7.us\/tag\/dallas-mavericks\/","name":"Dallas Mavericks","slug":"dallas-mavericks","taxonomy":"post_tag","meta":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.3 (Yoast SEO v22.9) -
