MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- For 24 minutes Wednesday, the Mavericks were the turkey, head resting on the chopping block, unable to put up any resistance.
Then, they took the axe away from the Memphis Grizzlies and started hacking back. And Harrison Barnes had the last swing.
A game that was lost, won, then lost, ultimately was won when Barnes banked in a 3-pointer at the buzzer for a 95-94 victory.
The Mavericks had trailed by 17 at halftime, pulled ahead by five with under a minute to go, then saw JaMychal Green race through the lane to slam home a missed shot by Tyreke Evans with 0.
