Nothing I Say Can Top This Photo

In honor of the Mavs winning the Western Conference Championship, we'll bust out this classic photo.  Substitute J-Kidd, Tyson Chandler, and Shawn Marion, and I can see this being last night's celebration.

Remember the love triangle between J-Kidd, Jimmy Jackson, and Toni Braxton.  I always forget about that before realizing that J-Kidd had to return to the scene of that crime when he was traded to Dallas.

Comcast - The Dallas Mavericks were a young franchise on the rise during the mid '90s. That is until Toni Braxton entered the equation. That’s right, while the Bulls were running the Triangle Offense, Jason Kidd, Jim Jackson, and singer Toni Braxton were rumored to be involved in a love triangle. Supposedly Braxton went to the Mavs' hotel to pick Kidd up for a date, only to leave with his teammate. 


The Mavs were actually on their way to being an exciting team back in the mid-90s, then Jamal Mashburn blew out his knee and Toni Braxton had to come between (no pun intended) teammates and force the Mavs to trade Jackson.  Sad times in the Big D.  So we can all rejoice that the tide turned when Mark Cuban bought the team.

KC Jones had not idea about this rumored love triangle. I wonder if these guys were glued to their televisions during T-Brax's "Dancing With The Stars" stint.....wow....amazing, you learn something new every day!
