Surprisingly, no words were spoken after I watched Brandon Roy rip out the heart of Dallas back in Game 4 of the Trail Blazers first round series with the Mavericks in 2011.
I shook my head, I think punched a pillow and went to bed. It was a soul crushing performance that almost severely altered the course of history for the Dallas Mavericks (had Dallas dropped the next two games, which was a very real possibility, the Dirk-era Mavericks would have most likely been torn to shreds.)
Thankfully, that Game 4 is just a minor footnote in the Mavericks championship run. And now the hero (or villain) in that game could very well end up in Dallas next year.
