Wednesday night saw the Dallas Mavericks & their star player Dirk Nowitzki take home top Excellence in Sports Performance Yearly Award (ESPY), capping a year that saw them become improbable champions.
The Mavericks, who won the National Basketball Association championship over a Miami Heat team filled with superstars, including LeBron James & Dwayne Wade, won the Espy for best team & Nowitzki was named best male athlete, reported Reuters.
"If this Dallas Mavericks team proved anything, it is that nice guys do win & can win & will win," said team owner Mark Cuban on stage accepting the team honor.
Accepting his award for best male athlete, German-born Nowitzki acknowledged the uncomfortable scene at the awards saying they would like to thank Cuban, but could not "since I cannot talk to him."
Olympic & World Cup champion skier Lindsey Vonn picked up the trophy for best female athlete for the second straight year. Like others, they thanked plenty of people, but then Vonn looked at pop star Justin Bieber in the audience & asked "will you take a picture with me for my Face book page."
Bieber laughed & nodded yes, said the document.
Check out the pics of the sizzling hot athletes as they appear for the awards function.
