 HOUSTON (AP) - With Dirk Nowitzki in another slump and Houston's Tracy McGrady suddenly struggling after scoring virtually at will, unheralded Dallas point guard Jason Terry rescued the Mavericks from the bleakest of deficits. Terry scored a season-high 32 points, including a 3-pointer with 26.9 seconds left, and Michael Finley added 18, rallying the Mavericks from a seven-point, fourth-quarter deficit in a 97-93 victory over the Houston Rockets on Saturday.
The victory evened the best-of-seven, first-round series at two games apiece. Game 5 is Monday night in Dallas.
The Mavericks might want to petition the NBA to hold the game elsewhere, because home-court advantage has been a disadvantage in this series. The road team has won all the games in this matchup.
