Finally, the Mavericks took the game with a score of 127 to 117.
But this was just the last blaze of glory for the people of Dallas.
In Game 4, Roger, facing the Mavericks' weak defense, shot 20 out of 28, achieving an incredible 71% shooting rate, and racked up 52 points with 5 assists, shattering Dallas's dream of equalizing the score.
The 04-05 season of the Dallas Cowboys has come to an end, and the collapse of the money empire is imminent.
Ted Turner's success made everyone believe that money could buy a championship, but the experiences of Paul Allen and Mark Cuban put a stop to the spread of this misconception.
Vince Carter rested his hands on his knees at the end of the game, feeling exhausted.
The second round was like a towering mountain; he failed to surmount it in 2001, and even in 2005, among a brilliant team, he still couldn't overcome it.
His mind was filled with Roger's words, "This year is no good either," as if it had become a curse.
