The Dallas Mavericks evened up their series with the Houston Rockets by taking Game 4 by a final score of 97-93.
Keith Van Horn left the game with what was being termed a bad ankle sprain and is doubtful for Game 4. Van Horn was having a solid start with four points in seven minutes. But his first rebound sent him to the locker room.
Dirk Nowitzki hit a fade away jumper with 10.4 seconds left in the game to tie the score at 111-111, but with no timeout coming from Jeff Van Gundy, Tracy McGrady came off a Yao Ming screen and with no defensive help from Keith Van Horn, hit a 22-footer to take a 2-point lead with just 2.2 seconds left.
