Dallas should be shaking their heads after opportunities to tie the game late.
Once again, we're here talking about shot making, which seems to ebb and flow with the Dallas Mavericks like traffic on Dallas North Tollway. (You should be thankful if that simile doesn't connect.) On Wednesday, Dallas lost a winnable game against the Hawks mostly because they weren't able to hit critical shots late.
Despite 3-point looks from Nowitzki and -- on a final possession -- Deron Williams, the Mavericks just couldn't bury looks that easily could have gone in.
