The Dallas Mavericks’ usually boastful and always heard PA announcer Sean Heath’s voice cracked when calling for a moment of silence before the start of Game 4’s Western Conference final, a rarity even though in-arena commemorations of mass shootings are as commonplace as pyrotechnics and eardrum-blasting… Source link
