They were in the 2010-11 NBA Finals and won it.
The Mavericks won the 2011 NBA championship, defeating the Miami Heat four games to two.
Miami has been in two NBA finals. One in 2006 winning against the Dallas Mavericks and one in 2011 again facing the Mavericks, but losing this time.
A long time ago they had a contest on the name of their team, and Mavericks were the chosen mascot.
There are several things to consider in order to measure who is better. You can say historically that the San Antonio Spurs are better than the Dallas Mavericks considering that the Spurs have 4 Championship Titles and the Dallas Mavericks have none. The Spurs also have the 2nd highest winning percentage (behind the Los Angeles Lakers) in NBA History. You can also view the regular season head to head record which really does not really mean much it's the post season and finals which the Spurs have won every time they have been to the finals. So in my humble opinion I would say that the Spurs are BETTER than the Mavericks.

2009
The Sabres played in the Stanley Cup Finals for the first time in 1975, where they lost to Philadelphia in 6 games. They also lost a Finals series to the Dallas Stars in 1999.
In 1980 a Dallas radio station had a contest to help name the team. 41 people turned in the name "Mavericks" out of 4,600 entries. The committee chose the name and recommended it to the teams owner. The winners all got 2 tickets to the opening game, with one of them being chosen the winner and given a pair of season tickets.
