The Dallas Mavericks and the NBA, in a joint venture with the NFL's Dallas Cowboys, will announce Thursday that the league's 2010 All-Star Game will be played at the new stadium soon to be opened by the Cowboys in Arlington, Texas.

Sources told ESPN.com that a formal announcement has been scheduled at American Airlines Center before the Mavericks' season opener Thursday night against the Houston Rockets.

The league office declined comment Tuesday.

Said Mavericks owner Mark Cuban when reached by e-mail: "You will just have to show up and find out."

Word emerged during last season's NBA playoffs that the two Dallas franchises were interested in co-staging the event at the Cowboys' new $1.1 billion facility in Arlington, which is scheduled to open in time for the 2009 NFL season.

Maybe in 2012 the can have it in China.

2014 in Antarctica in a big igloo.

2016 in Japan at the Tokyo Dome right on the infield dirt.

2018 on the Moon with 25 foot hoops.

Or perhaps the NBA could try having the All-Star game in some of the NBA cities that have still not hosted the game yet, but what do I know.

Nobody cares about those cities, and Texas has'nt had an all-star game since 96 I think. Im happy with this choice
