Dirk is the same age as Kobe! Fish, well he's getting there!
My point is that that same shot didn't work in the final secs with Haslem applying that D!
That's his style just like Reggie Miller's style was to kick out his feet when he shoots 3's.
Who gives a shit how many points a player can drop if they can't even win the game! He's had a very memorable season but the credit is to the team's depth and the ability to spread the floor. That's whats giving Dirk a lot more shot opportunities!
For Miami, they need to stop blowing leads! Keep pounding the paint! The were doing the same thing in this game; have a nice commanding lead then they stop driving, relax on the D and rely on the perimeter shots. Next thing you know a couple 3's and an And-1 and they are right back in the game!
