Dirk Nowitzki talked about how much it meant to him, after working so hard, so long to get it. Nowitzki moved past Shaquille O’Neal into sixth place on the NBA’s career scoring list, then made the go-ahead basket with 19.2 seconds left in overtime in the Dallas Mavericks’ 119-118 victory over the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday night. ”That’s what I play for, is to compete at the highest level for this franchise, for this team,” Nowitzki said.
