    Welll, isni't the first time the Mavs have ever won anything?
    Maybe, but no one ever remembers who came in second.

    I remember the fanfare when the Spurs used to hang their division banners.

    Me, too. But even that never seemed to wait for the following season's opening night. That's the part that I think is so interesting.

    I'm guessing that it took the sign-making outfit a while to get Cuban's likeness just right on the banner.

    Should we have a thread that honors the WCF banner being raised?

    that would bring the number of banners to 2 in the AAC ! And of course Leonard will be crying at the sight..

    It's going to be a star studded affair from what I hear. On the guest list for the banner raising: Karl Malone, Martin Scorsese, and Al Gore.

    spurs never had a conf championship banner hanging party. all three conference championships led to nba championships.

    You're right. Those banners were all "unveiled" at the beginning of the subsequent Finals and without any great fanfare.

    Again, I don't know of any team that has hung a conference championship banner that ever waited for the next season to unveil its conference championship banner. Before this thread started, I had assumed the Mavericks would have followed suit and hung the banner before Game 1 of the 2006 Finals, presuming that they'd have a much more significant banner to raise at the beginning of this season. Obviously, that assumption was wrong.

    spurschick is spot on here.

    Actually, I'm shocked there's not a Western Conference Championship parade preceding the unveiling of the banner.

    Would there be a huge Thanksgiving Day Parade sized Mark Cuban baloon floating overhead during the procession?

    True, but what better use for all that hot air than a parade with lots of floats?

    For some reason, the thought of a parade in Dallas with a big-headed Cuban float make me want to look for a good book depository.
