Jason Kidd spent part of his time on the court last night convincing Jason Terry to miss a free throw in the final second of the game. Kidd wanted Terry to make the first, but knew the Nuggets would have a tough time scoring a basket in the final second.

"His whole concept was hey we can't lose the game, and I kept saying, no we're going to win. Just miss it," Kidd said after the game.

Terry made the first to give Dallas a two point margin and like Kidd wanted, bounced the second off the rim.

"I thought with our luck, with a second left, if he would have made the second one, they would have taken the ball out of bounds and we would have fouled someone. That's just the way it goes for us," Kidd said laughing. "So I thought just miss it and if they make a full court shot, then we deserve to lose."

Kidd was right and Dallas finally beat the Nuggets.
