Dirk Nowitzki had a good day Saturday.

First, Germany waxed Argentina in the World Cup.

Then, he agreed to terms on a new four-year contract with the Mavericks.

Break out the vuvuzelas.

While everybody involved figured there was never a reason for concern, it still was a sigh of relief for Mavericks nation when Nowitzki and adviser Holger Geschwindner agreed to the deal that will keep the 7-foot power forward in Dallas until 2014.

"Yes, we have a deal," Geschwindner said late Saturday.

Though terms were not immediately known, the contract could be worth as much as $96 million over four years.
