I haven't read this in a while. But I seem to remember it being great. http://www.dallasobserver.com/2007-1...dile-nowitzki/

I like this gem:

But even professional sports psychologists agree that something is going on with Nowitzki. "It's one thing if in the flow of the game you miss a shot, but when you're standing on the free-throw line and you have time to think about what this shot means—if you make it, you win, and if you don't, you lose—if in a moment like that you miss, there's definitely cause for concern," says Paul Baard, a sports psychologist at Fordham University in New York.

Because of the implication for other people as well.

I actually read an article from a doctor/psychologist that said that the dirkster was unique in that he basically had ice in his veins at the free throw line. An ability of the great sportsmen to block it all out.

I actually cannot think of another player I would put on the line to win a game than the dirkster.
