Dwain Price: #Mavs C Chris Kaman: "Canada and the United States are pretty much the same country. It’s not like Mexico and the United States. Its Canada and the United States. It's like the border. People don't mind going back and forth across the (USA-Canada) border.'' Twitter @DwainPrice

For Prokhorov, who ran for the Russian presidency this spring, this is a chance to see a cultural exchange between two countries that sometimes don’t see eye-to-eye. “For me, it’s very sad to see the U.S. relationship [with Russia] is getting worse and worse all the time," Prokhorov said. "What is the reason? Because we have a lack of cultural, business and, before, sports. We have a lot in common … we’re countries with big territory, multi-national, and a very good level of culture. “We have a big Russian diaspora here in the United States, but we still have a lack of business. Maybe that’s the biggest problem. When you have a lack of business and culture, politics is very vulnerable. I hope this cultural event will be a small drop in fulfilling this task … it’s very important.” New York Post
