The Dallas Mavericks probably should have just gone to Dirk Nowitzki on the play anyway, but the game has a way of working out its own problems.
Down two with less than 10 seconds left, the Mavericks turned to Harrison Barnes to create a shot to tie in isolation. But when Barnes' shot drew front iron, there was Nowitzki to alertly collect the miss and drill the elbow jumper to send the game into overtime.
