R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, The San Antonio Spurs have sent their intrastate NBA rival, the Dallas Mavericks, packing by winning the 2003 Western Conference Finals; and WHEREAS, NBA Most Valuable Player Tim Duncan and his talented Spurs teammates clipped the wings of the high-flying Mavericks by claiming the I-35 series in convincing fashion and establishing themselves hands down as the best basketball team in the Lone Star State; and WHEREAS, Although the admittedly talented Dallas team might rise phoenix-like from the ashes of defeat next season, it is certain that for the remainder of this year's NBA playoffs the Mavericks are relegated to merely horsing around; now, therefore, be it RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 78th Texas Legislature hereby offer sincere condolences to the Dallas Mavericks, their fans, and especially the Dallas County Delegation on losing to the San Antonio Spurs in the Western Conference Finals.
