Mavericks oust Spurs in 5 games (AP) (sports.yahoo.com)

Dirk Nowitzki and the Dallas Mavericks calmly walked off the floor with little more than some high-fives, as if they've done this before in the playoffs. They have, but it's been a while. Nowitzki scored 31 points and the Mavericks won a playoff series for the first time since 2006, eliminating the San Antonio Spurs in five games with a 106-93 victory Tuesday night.
