Jason Terry is one of the most beloved players to ever wear a Mavericks jersey. He tattooed the Larry O'Brien Trophy on his bicep the summer before the Mavs won their first and only title. It was a bold statement and he backed it up. It was this swagger and trash talking that endeared him to many fans.
However, Terry, who spent eight seasons with Dallas, is now with the Houston Rockets. He knows the Mavs are currently struggling heading into Wednesday night's meeting between the two teams and took the opportunity to throw some barbs.
Dallas has lost 3 in a row- Jason Terry says key tonight is to 'kick them while they're down.'
