Natural Disaster: It’s Time To Put Up Or Shut Up In Phoenix

Steve Nash

Or that the Mavericks took another step towards proving their validity as a real title contender? … Clutch Shawn Marion free throws and a huge three-pointer from Jason Terry in the final minute and a half proved to be the difference for the Mavs, as they overcame two big runs during both halves from Miami.
