Fox Sports Southwest has own Project Runway -- starring Jet Terry
04/13/09 10:39 PM
What could have been a crushing home loss to Minnesota's woeful Timberwolves became a tingling two-point win Monday night when guard Jason "Jet" Terry canned a clutch jumper.
The victory at least temporarily snatches the Dallas Mavericks from the jaws of an eighth seed playoff matchup against the all-powerful Los Angeles Lakers.
A final regular season home win against Houston on Wednesday -- or a loss by the Utah Jazz to the Lakers Tuesday night -- gives the Mavs at least a fighting chance to avoid a third consecutive first round playoff knockout. But will enough fans be on board to pump up the team's deflated Nielsen ratings?
We'll see -- one game at a time.
