In his first comeback game, Roger set a new career high for single-game scoring.
Scoring 64 points in a single game, even the most fervent Hawks fans couldn't have imagined such an explosive comeback against the Mavericks.
The most painful aspect of the game for Dallas people was that Nowitzki scored 35, and a hot-handed Nash had 29 points and 12 assists.
But when the two best stars on your team have given their best performance and you still can't win, the feeling of despair becomes particularly intense.
The better Nowitzki and Nash performed, the more desperate the Mavericks fans became.
And for Mavericks owner Mark Cuban, the only emotion stronger than despair was anger.
After the game, Mark Cuban was so angry that he smashed his giant plasma TV when he got home.
This young team owner has always been unable to control his temper. In just two years in the NBA, he has accumulated over a million US Dollars in fines for various controversial statements and outspoken outbursts.
