It’s not too often a future first ballot Hall of Famer goes into his home country for a preseason game and miss the easiest shot on the court. But miss the easiest shot on the court Dirk Nowitzki did:
Dirk gets some points for trying to play off the botched bunny at the end. Just not on the scoreboard.

Catch up on every single game-winning buzzer beater during the season and see how it rates on the Horry Scale.
Home sweet home LOL!
if that was Pau Gasol he wouldve dunked it
Pau has choked enough against Dirk. Everyone knows the two arnt even comparable. Just another person so insecure with yourself you have to put down everything else?prolly lol. Thats like MAYBE the 2nd layup hes missed in his life son.
Y U NO DUNK?
The Mavs had like 36 turnovers, that’s pretty bad.. But it’s the first preseason game and I look forward to continue to see these boys gell and become something formidable. I feel they need to signe another big man, is Ben Wallace still playing? I know he’s old, but I think he would be a great addition for a 20 minute game guy.
home sweet home
It’s just PRESEAON.
LOL..
DIRK IS DIRK… And Besides I don’t Mind it at all as afar as i know what dirk can DO ‘n THE basketball COurt.. ANd Im sure (101% Sure..MANY PEOPLE WILL AGREE) is just a fun time give him a break…

FOR DIRK IS 1 OF the BEST so dont Compare or Joke around if Dirk Misses a Quite easy Lay-up ok? hahaha
CHILDREN PLEASE>….
Let us not make it as a BIG DEAL , it`s not easy to play there even if you`re Veteran and No one is Perfect.
I guess he was just going as hard as it took to beat those kids and save his energy for some real competition.
He tried, must give him that. But sometimes you are not as good at “Home” as when you are abroad.
