Jason Terry's last 3 was the biggest irrational confidence shot of all-time. I'd put it against anything.


Right now I don't care about all the years of insufferable play, all the stupid shots, all the stupid talking, the disappearing acts.

He just put his stamp on NBA history. So happy for him.

His legacy will be defined by gm 6 and/or 7.

Agreed. Finish the series. Then we'll talk about how big that shot was.

Terry is delivering. Jet almost single handedly sparked the rallies in all three victories. Once the Mavs got rolling, Dirk usually took the reins. But Jet started things.

The dagger three pointer was almost accidental. Jet was trying to dump in to Dirk most of play clock. Heat were playing good denial defense. Jet had to fire something up before shot clock expired. Smooooooth stroke for the win.

99% of this board hates him. Obviously I'm a Mavs fan so as long as he backs up his endless smack talk he's okay in my book. He hardly ever does. Last two games, he has.

That 3 in Bron's grill was cold-blooded.

What have you done for me lately JET? A lot.

Jet was very good tonight. Hopefully he can make a similar contribution to a win in Miami.

Win or lose this is one of the greatest Finals ever and he made one of the biggest shots of the series over allegedly one of the greatest defenders (right Derrick Rose?) to go up 3-2. I'll always have this game. I'll always have game 2. I'll always have Dirk's game winning shot with 102 fever. It's still the Heat's series to lose.

But yeah go ahead and bump this post when the Mavs blow a double digit lead in game 6. I just want to enjoy this moment...I can barely function

Luckiest player ever. I was about ready to shoot him in the head tonight after he failed to get the ball to Dirk on that possession where he hit the desperation 3 to nail it shut. Dirk *has* to touch the ball on every possession in the last minute, even if he doesn't take the shot. Terry's dillydallying around at the arc nearly put the game at serious risk for the Mavs. He's very lucky that shot went in. *Very* lucky.

Given the other comebacks this series, for this to be what I would say was the best game of the series and one of te best I've ever witnessed, it blows my mind.

Alot of stupid shots this series, but if we win it will be forgiven.

He's a turnover machine, a ball hog, he has the basketball IQ of a rock, and he plays defense only when he really feels like it. Other than that... what's there to dislike?

Snark aside, he drives me crazy because I'm a Mavs fan, and a huge fan of Dirk, and his role seems mostly to prevent Dirk from getting a ring by being selfish and stupid. I'm glad he got lucky tonight, but if those shots hadn't gone down... his decisions were AWFUL.

I've cussed Jet more than any athlete not named Jerrod in the last few years, but he backed it up tonight.

I get the feeling that if that shot doesn't fall and they lose then his ass is run out of town in an offseason salary dump trade. But since it went in now he might be a Mav for life and have his jersey retired down the line if they somehow win the title. Crazy.

Damn so awkward Skin just asked Lebron why has Jet outscored him 16-2 in the 4th the past 2 games after he shut down Derrick Rose last series

Mavs down 3 points... Jet dominated on next four possessions.
1. Nails wide open three pointer from key. Smart shot, easy bucket.
2. Breaks down Heat defense with dribble. Dishes to Dirk for go-ahead dunk
3. Beats LBJ off the dribble and draws 3 defenders. Passes to wide open for Kidd for 3 pointer.
4. Running two man game with Dirk. Dirk can't get open. Jet has to beat shot clock and drains the 3pter for the dagger.

Terry moved passed Manu Ginobili & has now scored the most points by a bench player in a single postseason in the last 25 years (341).

His passing has been very good this series. That pick and roll with Chandler is almost unstoppable

If anybody is still watching the post-game interviews on ESPN, JET just gave some pretty classy responses to the press questions. Very humble, especially considering how much **** he talked all series. Gave all the credit to everyone else.

I know he's a pretty hated guy on this forum, but from the moment he called out Lebron he was the spark plug for this team. He had a clutch game when Dirk was flat for three quarters.

Always loved JET. You take him for what he is, and he is streaky. He'll frustrate the hell out of you, but the way he plays when he's hot makes it worthwhile.

Started all of the Maverick comeback rallies. Every one. Once Jet got team back into it, Dirk took over. And he put nail in coffin in Game 5. He singlehandedly kept the Mavs in the first half in Game 6.

I was pretty hard on Jet throughout the playoffs, and not without reason. I have to say, though, that last night, he played smart, aggressive basketball while Dirk was taking a mental night off for reasons I can't begin to imagine. (I don't think Dirk ever attacked the basket until the 4th quarter. It was a bad deja vu of the old Dirk. Ugh.) Jet surely redeemed himself for everything in Game 6, and I couldn't be happier for him, or prouder.

I just love how Dirk called out Jet after Game 3 in the media, and how Jet then encouraged Dirk in the 4th quarter of game 6, screaming "Remember 06! Remember 06!" They needed each other. It could only end this way.
