Ohio Governor John Kasich has signed an official resolution naming the Dallas Mavericks "organization, friends, family and fans as honorary Ohioans" for defeating the Miami Heat and LeBron James in the NBA Finals.

Thus marking the first time a team has ever forfeited an NBA Championship as to avoid becoming named "honorary Ohioans."

A spokesman for the Dallas Mavericks organization was quoted as saying, "Nah… We're good  Thanks."
