If Dirk Nowitzki could impart one piece of advice to Tony Romo, he would tell the Cowboys' quarterback to get over it.
Dwelling on the negative for too long can be unhealthy for anybody, Nowitzki said Wednesday. He and the Mavericks went through it last spring when they were upset in the first round of the playoffs. A week later, Nowitzki collected the MVP trophy in an uncomfortable ceremony.
"Everybody deals with stuff differently," Nowitzki said. "I just had to get away [to Australia] and get my mind away from basketball.
"I'm sure he's going through some tough times. But at some point, you got to get over it and look forward. He's still young and has a great career ahead of him. You can't just always look at the negative."
The Mavericks found out Wednesday how the Cowboys' season can impact them. They were greeted on a light practice day by probably the biggest media throng of the season for any practice.
"I've been here 10 years, and everybody lives and dies with the Cowboys," Nowitzki said. "It was bad for the city, but things happen. We experienced it last year in the first round."
Jerry Stackhouse said it's now the Mavericks' turn under the microscope.
"We know that the Cowboys are out of the picture now and probably a little more attention will shift to us and the Stars," he said. "We were enjoying floating under the radar for a little bit, but I guess that's over now."

People really need to stop blaming the offensive line, when it takes your offense 12 minutes and 20 plays to score on touchdown, and then your defense follows with allowing the Giants to score in 6 or 7 plays...what do you think happens to the O-Line ?????
