      I don't know, he's got that hairy, brooding European thing going on for him. Kind of like the foreign exchange student who has girls falling all over him for the simple fact that he has an accent and he's "sensitive". And as RedBaron said, the money doesn't hurt.

        Being from Brazil, I'm guessing Ms. Lima has an accent of her own, so that leaves sensitivity. And by sensitivity, I mean, being in the right place at the right time.

    A commenter on With Leather looked closely at the photos and thought Ms. Lima might be a MRF. That might explain this whole deal.

Preview: Wolves @ Mavs
Dallas Mavericks — ... Player to Watch:  Marko Jaric - the 6′7″ point guard is only averaging 9.3 points this season, but he has scored at least 20 points in back-to-back games.  Maybe his new girlfriend is the reason for his sudden burst of energy.  Regardless, he is playing well and will probably draw Josh Howard and/or Trenton Hassell on defense.  His size will give him an advantage over the smaller Devin Harris, who will likely be assigned to the smaller, quicker Sebastian Telfair. ...
