The Dallas Mavericks definitely had their chances the last two games against the Oklahoma City Thunder to go up in either game and make it a closer series. Instead, the Thunder are up two games to zero against the defending champs, and it's the team's inability to close games out late that keep them from achieving their goal. Check out last night's game in which Jason Terry misses two shots at the buzzer to keep the Mavs in it.

Terry had 13 points off the bench for the Mavs last night, including 2 for 6 from 3-point territory. Here, however, are two of the attempts he needed most.
