The Mavs were behind for a while in that game and Dirk made sure they kept they lead when they got it, ALL of his points were just as crucial.
And lets not forget Dirks clutch and one against SA in game seven, thats imo more clutch than Lebrons performance here, the difference being Dirks team was seconds away from elimination in a game 7. The point is Lebron deserves credit for that performance, but we've seen similar impressive feats that haven't gone down as historic. This performance is historic because its King James, not Dirk.

Game was tied going into the fourth. Mavs were up by about 2 with half of the fourth to go. Then they went on a 21-5 run with dirk scoring 22 in the fourth to put it away.
