GET TIMMY D
Dirk was a bad MF 🔥🔥
My favorite player of all-time! I wrote him in the Summer of 2001 and that October 10th, 2001 one day before school a White envelope with green stripes showed up and it was Dirk posting up in a Autographed picture, signed by him.. two weeks before my birthday.. That was one of the greatest gifts ever. He played a big role in this kid from Cleveland's love for the game, being able to impact the game while being unorthodox was truly a groundbreaking and changed the game. I've been locked in as a fan of his since 2000-2001. I'll definitely enjoy this one! Thank you Dirk & Much love.. #AllTheSmoke #DirkFan #JustAKidFromCleveland
Shut it down
Dirk could barely speak English when he got here. I know it's been a long time, but i couldn't imagine being THAT fluent in German if i did the same thing…
kinda miss the long hair on german jesus
Holy I’ve been waiting for this🤯
If we’re talking the great sport stories/narratives, Dirk is a top 5 career. One of the best sports stories ever.
OH HELL YES!!! DIRK THE 🐐
Wo sind die deutschen ?❤️🇩🇪
Finally y’all got The Tall Baller from the G on here! Y’all still gotta get Duncan, Ray Allen, Ben Wallace, BRoy, S. Francis, & The Matrix on the podcast!
Love it ❤️❤️❤️
Been waiting… One of the greatest players of all time.. Dirkkkkkkk
I wish theyd do an interview with Phil Jackson and/or pat riley
Dirk Nowitzki 🏀🔥🙌
Best pf of all time will never he a point power fwd w a fade away like his
Diiiiiiiiirk, Heat nation loves him despite the battles
They hoe'd us in '06…yeah I said it #THEBIGGERMAN #2011 #MFFL
Cold blooded killa 💙🏀
Hahaha That A/C story is crazy goes to show you how good America has it , shout out DIRK !!!
Boom, you caught a big fish.
WOW!!
👐🏾 ALWAYS said that they were HUGE in Germany! If you were @ Summer Jam ‘97 (the REAL Summer Jam in the Meadowlands) you know lol 🫡🤙🏾🐝
🐐🐐🐐🐐
The wait is over!!! 4️⃣1️⃣2️⃣1️⃣1️⃣
Love this show and super fucking appreciated having Dirk on
As a long time mavs fan, him finely and Nash are the reasons I love basketball and have been a mavs fan since then. Mind you I’m from Brooklyn. Keep the real ones in the media! Thank you all the smoke
This is the man I wanted to get beat by my Spurs all the time. When he developed his jumper and extended his range it was like watching a man turn into an unstoppable machine. I wished he left Texas and went east lol his ring is well deserved. 1.21.41 is still a heluva sequence.
I remember tryna hit the dirk fadeaway for hours as a kid in the backyard. He cemented himself in history forsure !
Great player almost as good as L. Bird
Been along for this for a while! Let’s go!
All Hail the Mighty Dirk. 2011 NBA championship greatest run of all time
Nicest, best most humble player of all time. Not even a mavs fan. How could you not love this guy
People don’t talk about Michael Finley NEARLY enough. He was a better shooting Sprewell 🫡🤙🏾
You guy's interviewing skills and transitioning from topic to topic has come a long way. very seamless
1 trick pony. 20 years and barely "won" 1 finals against Miami Heat big 3 and 12 minimum salary guys/injured role players.
I got and VERY much appreciate the Anchorman reference, Jack
My second favorite 4 man fa sho 💪🏾
Dirk is a better man than I am. No way in hell would I ever talk to these guys after what they did to him
😂
Dirk IMO is the most LOVED & respected Dallas legend. He was loyal, hard working, cool & won us the most difficult ring in sports history…
You guys gotta get B Roy on!
My favorite Maverick!!! Congratulations Dirk! Love the interview 👏🏾👏🏾
If y'all were able to get Dirk I'm praying y'all get somehow get Jokic
One of the wisest, the most level-headed sports legend ever. Who doesn't like Dirk Nowitzki?
2011 run is the best one and done run ive ever seen
Dirk!!!
