Dirk's Flu Game

In the pivotal game 4, Dirk Nowitzki fought through a 102-degree fever and the flu, scoring 21 points and leading the Mavs to another win against the Heat. Miami started the fourth quarter with a nine-point lead but by the end of the fourth, the Mavs were holding on, up by just one point. With 24 seconds left, Dirk holds the ball up until the 16-second mark and drives in for a layup that lands over two defenders. The Mavs won 86-83.
