DENVER, CO - NOVEMBER 09: C.J. McCollum #3 of the Portland Trail Blazers controls the ball against Randy Foye #4 of the Denver Nuggets at Pepsi Center on November 9, 2015 in Denver, Colorado. The Nuggets defeated the Blazers 108-104.
Usually Dirk Nowitzki is on the good side of highlights. But on Tuesday night, Portland Trailblazers guard C.J. McCollum made the big German look silly.
After receiving a pass in the corner, McCollum attempted a crossover to shake off Nowitzki. Not only did he get the space he needed, but he literally spun the defender in circles.
Luckily for Dirk, the Mavs were able to pull out an overtime win allowing him to laugh the play off.

“Oh, man, I was praying he was going to miss it,” Nowitzki. “And I turned around and he made it. I told him at halftime it was cold-blooded to go at the old man like that. Yeah, it’s on ESPN. Tough.”
