Portland Trail Blazers fans know this sight all too well from former fan favorite Wes Matthews.
With the Dallas Mavericks suffering through yet another horrendous collapse in crunch time, the Mavericks needed Matthews to get a crucial stop against an old friend in Damian Lillard.
Matthews made no mistake as he rescued the Mavs from nearly squandering a 24-point halftime lead on the road at the Moda Center.
