    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">SEATTLE (AP) -- Dirk Nowitzki made nearly everything he put up, and Antoine Walker saved the biggest shot for the end.

    Walker made a fadeaway 20-footer at the buzzer, lifting the Dallas Mavericks to their ninth straight win -- a thrilling 118-116 victory over the Seattle SuperSonics on Tuesday night.

    "I was just trying to slash and get a shot in that little corner area," Walker said. "I got a good pass. You always have a go-to move so you can get a shot off in that situation, so I knew fading away I could get that shot off."

    Nowitzki scored a career-high 43 points, keeping the Mavericks close down the stretch after a 16-of-22 shooting performance that included a career-high 8-of-11 on 3-pointers.</div>

    Unbelievable game that; I almost cried after that, watching my Sonics match Dallas point for point until the final shot - that description above hardly does justice to the shot. It was more of a fadeaway heave, from the corner, with a man right in his chop, and it still dropped in. Fortune favours the brave I guess, a very hard loss to swallow however.
