Thanks a lot, Sports Illustrated.
Your cover jinx is all we need as the Dallas Mavericks fight their way toward their first NBA title.
Then again, it’s quite a coup for Reebok to get star billing over Nike on an SI cover. Unless, of course, Reebok gets jinxed too. The shoe company already took a hard one on the chin in October when the National Football League chose Nike to replace Reebok as its official maker of NFL apparel.
Jinxed shminxed, the Mavs are going to roll all the way to the championship. It’s our year, baby!
For a professional athlete featured on a sports magazine for his running, that Mavs player in the white socks is seriously missing some calf muscles.
