In the last several days, NBA 2K has been releasing sneak peaks of the rosters for their all-time teams for many of the organizations in the upcoming NBA 2K18 video game.

One of the first teams that were released was the all-time Miami Heat that features both Dwyane Wade and Shaquille O'Neal, who were members of the 2006 team that topped the Dallas Mavericks in the NBA Finals in six games.

This provided a perfect opportunity for a fake Dirk Nowitzki Twitter account to get in a witty remark concerning the possible other players on the Heat's all-time roster.

It has been well over a decade since the Mavericks fell in the 2006 NBA Finals to the Heat disappointing fashion after holding a commanding 2-0 lead. The series began to sway over to Miami in Game 3 on with Wade going to the free throw line quite often from that point on in the series including more than 20 times in each of the final two games.

There is still clearly a level of disdain about how the series transpired, but Nowitzki was eventually able to exact his revenge against Wade by beating him and the Heat in the 2011 NBA Finals in six games in similar fashion. Miami had grabbed a 2-0 series lead but the Mavericks were able to mount a fourth-quarter comeback to steal Game 3 on the road.
