Q. Game two of the 2011 finals. Game is tied in the final seconds. You drove to the basket for the game-winning finger roll. Who was late to help on defense? Dirk Nowitzki: Oh my god. Udonis Haslem was on the basket. Udonis Haslem: I'm going to tell you the truth. I'm going to tell you the whole story. Nowitzki: Why you do that to me? Haslem: No, I'm going to tell you the truth. Now, let me tell the story since you want to bring it up. Me and Erik Spoelstra almost got in a fist fight. That was supposed to be my defensive assignment. And right before we came out of the huddle, Spo said, "Chris Bosh, you take Dirk.” I was pissed off from that point on. Yeah, I was late cuz I should have been on Dirk the whole time.
