The story of this game: Dirk Nowitzki. The German Sniper, Dirty Dirk, and now the all time international scorer EVER in the NBA. Coming into the game Dirk Nowitzki needed 17 points to pass Hakeem Olajuwon on the all-time scoring list to become 9th and he achieved that with this jumper:
Great night for Dirk Nowitzki who had 23 points and 7 rebounds. Monta Ellis also pitched in for 16, with 10 points coming in the 3rd quarter and a buzzer beater at the end of the quarter. The Sacramento Kings dominated the first half of this game, leading in the 1st quarter 32-14 but the Dallas Mavericks with a ridiculous 3rd quarter came back to win it 106-98.
