Dirk Nowitzki's been one of the NBA's best players and most ingenious scorers for so long that he's running out of new ways to put the ball in the hoop. But his one-legged last-second shot in the first quarter of Game 4 in the Dallas Mavericks' series against the Oklahoma City Thunder is probably new.
Like, really, what is this? Dirk can just receive inbounds passes and throw up the ball and it'll work? That's not fair.
The GIF of the shot is even more amusing, with Dirk throwing it up and spinning ad nauseam:
It really does look like a Harlem Globetrotters move or something. And it took less than a second! And the Mavericks are probably still going to get swept, because a) you really can't do this for the entirety of the game and b) it didn't go in.
...eh, maybe they should try anyway?
