Champions! The Dallas Mavericks

Finally, the Dallas Mavericks got its first ever franchise title as NBA's champion team of 2011. Dirk Nowitzki was awarded as the finals' most valuable player (MVP) presented by the legend himself, Bill Russel. To whom where the mvp trophy named after. Playing with heart, determination, and passion, Dirk definitely done a great as a team leader.
It was obvious throughout the season that the Mavs played as a "team" to get that sought after title. Specially in the finals' game 6 where Dirk struggles to score in the first half his team mates stepped up to beat the frozen heats. Congratulations to the Mavs! The team deserved it!

 For the Miami Heat, losing really is frustrating but there's a bright future for them, they
got talents no question for that. They just have to get over with it and regroup, think and
learn from their mistakes, more determination and lastly play like a team. Failure makes champions.

It's now even for both team, one title each, both beaten on their respective home same at game 6 and in a 4 to 2 series standing. Miami hold the title in 2006 against Dallas.

 On the other side of the game, all those Mavs fans who bet for the team'hooray! to all of us guys ha ha. It added up more exciting to the game, a pulsating series game really. A sigh of relief for us Mavs fans the team closed out the series in that game 6, whew. Cheers for the win!

i-witness' Gintong Putik (golden mud)

"Armed with a photo, some old sketchy details and loads of hope, Kara David sets out to find a young boy she met over a decade ago. The search takes her back to the town of Paracale in Camarines Norte.

It was here in this gold-rich third-class municipality, where Kara, who was then a cubreporter on assignment for Brigada Siete, first met Jimmy Dasco. He was only 13 then and was part of a group of people burrowing in the middle of a rice field. They were operating what was called pagkakabod or compressor mining in search for gold. Pagkakabod was livelihood for the locals of Paracale." read more at gmanews.tv

just a three-point lead. Few seconds left, the Heat rallied back led by 

Dwane Wade closed the gap to a point, but Dirk answered it with a 

crucial right handed lay up tying the series at 2 wins apiece.

TF3: The music behind

A film without the elements of music wouldn't do any good -thats a fact! Here Linkin Park's Mike

Shinoda and Steve Jablonsky talk about the film's music. How LP came up with the song "Iridescent",

the making of the music video, how it fits into the concept of the new film and the song itself. Linkin

Park did all the soundtracks from the first to present -they're doing a great job! While score composer

Steve Jablonsky is the musical director since the first movie and other Michael Bay's films and

produced. A great film deserves a great music. It sounds real good!

Dirk's winning lay up

Stunned faces from the crowd as Dirk Nowitzki got away for a game winning a lay up 

stealing the game 2 of 7 series from the Miami Heat's home court. A very crucial game

deficit in the 4th quarter. Next game on monday in Dallas, Texas a bit of advantage in

the Mavs' side with the 3 monsters on Heat's side its not gonna be an easy game 3 for

the Mavs . Beat heat! :D
