Who is Dirk Nowitzki

January 25, 2008 Mavs vs Los Angeles Lakers
Dirk scored 26 points in a winning effort to the Lakers. Mavs lose big 17 point lead after the 3rd quarter but step it up at the end for win.

Dirk Played 35:31 minutes
Shot 8-16 from the floor
Free Throws 10-11
3 point land 0-1
Rebounds 10
Assists 3

A pretty well played game by Dirk, he shot 50% from the floor, 10 rebounds almost perfect from the free throw line and 3 assists. He and Josh both had Good sold all star games. But the player of the game was Devon Harris who came through in the 2nd half scoring 16 points and leading the way with Dirk and Josh's help.

Currently I believe that Los Angeles Laker's and Kobe Bryant are having a great year and the way they are playing should have no problem winning against the Mavericks. But the Mav's are on their own court and Dirk and Josh Howard always step up their game when they play good teams. But if the Laker's attack first and get a big lead I do not think the Mav's can come back and win. I going with the Mav's on this one thought to win in a tight game.

Well I was pretty on target with this one Kobe did have a better game then Dirk but it really did not matter because they still lost. Dirk had a great game with 26 points and 10 rebounds, while Kobe scored 40 points and did all he could do to keep the Lakers in the game at the end. The game was in reach of La but Mavs stepped it up at the end for the win.
