true... so rare to see player play in one team for his career or at least decade... i miss 80s 90s where club had its face, now every year each team changes so much, its a bit sad to see lebron on lakers or shaq change 10 teams :D
It is always harder to hit shots farther from the basket than 5ft from it. For Dirk to hit that many shots being 7ft and all is just amazing. Truly the man changed the game. Congrats Dirk, I'm ok with you retiring but if you still want to play with Luka and KP I cant blame you.
Saw dirk when he was young age at European cup (was it at '97 ?), the dude didn't play a normal ball, that German squad back then looked SOOOOO BAD that felt like Dirk was playing a 1v9 (or let's say 3v7 more accurate..), yes, felt like even some teammates were playing against him back in the days and still had a decent number of wins :D
God, I'm gonna miss this guy when he retires. Lol. Even though I grew up with Ben and Rasheed and Chauncey and Tayshaun, Dirk was literally on TV my entire life from the moment I started watching basketball. And for him to pass Wilt with his classic midrange fadeaway is about as appropriate as it gets.
Wilt was good. Damn good. Boxing him out was tough and never easy. The only time I had success blocking Wilt was when he doubled pumped and went up too slow. Congratulations Dirk and may my Brother Wilt continue to rest in the greatest of peace!
For me are only 3 players who never earned a bad word in history. Kobe, Timmy Duncan and Dirk. All three are first ballot HoF, played near or over 20 years for 1 franchise and won ring/s. Real and true Champions.
dirk,timmy and kobe...those 3 great players are the most loyal franchise player of all time...true champions...but dirk was the most deserving champion of them all...because he won the championship without an all star calliber teammate
dirk dethrone the super team miami heat lead by lebron,wade and bosh...the big 3 was out classed by the huge 1...the one and only great dirk nowitzki...
Although feel like this particular stat has been somewhat unnaturally-inflated (I mean, play for 20+ seasons ?), Dirk deserved all the props and glory, grats to this man's impact to the game and well-deserved HoF :)
I can understand why someone would think that, but let's take someone who played for 17 years during the NBA and was a 1st round pick. Richard Jefferson. Only 3 years less than Dirk has and 17,000 less points. That's how good Dirk is.
Rudy Cooper wow you are full of hate...🤣🤣🤣roids lol hahahahhahahaha i guess everyone took then roids stop hating and achieve something in your life bum
@@boogieb_7179 True...but at the end of the day, trying to compare different eras is pointless. The game has evolved over time...shot clock, 3-ptrs, other rule changes etc. I ain't gonna lie...Wilt was a freak of nature.
man with no haters
He had Haters in the Past but after 2011 they fade away like He does with his JumpShot.
if all humans would be like dirk, the world would be by far a better one....
Absolutely
Out of all the legends on the all time scoring list, Dirk has got to be the most loved. Not just as a basketball player.
I absolutely agree.
Finally youtube showed me something i actually WANT to watch
Tobias Tinter couldn’t agree more
Their filter bubbles suck right? Or is it for lack of quality content, I wonder...
@@nougatbitz both ;)
Tobias Tinter I didn't wanna watch this though.
Yeah
Being Humble ....leads you to greatness
The most loyal and committed player in NBA history.

kobe
MrJamesbound007 wrong
MrJamesbound007 most loyal huh. Kobe Bryant man. Well I guess that's your opinion.
@@Joshua-Samarita kobe almost wanted to be traded to chicago.
LEGEND 1 of the greatest very humble most loyal and franchise player of a team......
The humble man in the nba

True Words pal. Really true words
Dirk Nowitzki,.. the normal one
The greatest jump shooter and fade away and high arching shot,,,thank you dirk for giving your best and making nba fans happy
Yeah 👍🏻 DIRK is the goat - in Germany for sure 💪🏼 best regards from a german 🏀 filmmaker 🎥👌 i saw Dirk playing as a kid 😊

VArsovski10 1997 👍🏻 or 1998 during the NBA strike

Missed the game last night and this was beyond perfect. Thank you.

It's beautiful to watch Dirk Nowitzki jumpshot with both legs splits when he goes up for jumpshots...
Kobe respecr him so much because of his loyalty.
consistent and humble...gotta love that no matter what
Der großartigste normalste Mensch der Welt
Dirk = 🐐
This man has no haters. If you hate him. Theres something wrong with you
Dirk for President! German or American, either way it's ok. btw nice game awareness of the refs to pause the game
Legend
Dirk you legend!

kobe had that thing in denver....just saying
Sven Kreuzberg lol kobe stop it
great vid, love u videos :P
the finger of marion :O @5:54

Let's not forget the fact that Dirk willed the Mavericks against a LeBron led superteam.😎😎😎
Dirk the 🐐
What a maverick and mad lad
Congrats idol dirk nowitzki you pass again? From philippines....
dirk,timmy and kobe...those 3 great players are the most loyal franchise player of all time...true champions...but dirk was the most deserving champion of them all...because he won the championship without an all star calliber teammate
CONGRATULATES FOR THE BIG GERMAN !!!
I feel like the crowd is more energized when dirk passes a milestone that lebron does. Im not hating, its just an observation.
Congrats Dirk!!! Surpass jordan Next year!!!
with legs and back shattered. Time left
Jordan is next on the list 😄
Not going to reach it
Pat L not with that attitude
5:54 you're welcome.
Slick suit, Werner!
Dirk
L-E-G-E-N-D
Dirk deserves everything good that happens to him. Love u dude
damn his walk in the suit his joints must be hurting heavingly
So how can you defind if a player is a legend? For me staying for one team (except if the team traded the player) if a legend.
If not Charles Barkley he would end up in Army imagine
Красава Дирк! Привет из России!
He has been doing air balls in the basket threw all his career that's why he still passing HOF players.
Who else on the assist but Luka!
dirk dethrone the super team miami heat lead by lebron,wade and bosh...the big 3 was out classed by the huge 1...the one and only great dirk nowitzki...
Did DIRK announced his retirement this season?? I'm not sure if he did or not.
Russ Rod he didn’t ;)
@@MrPepeHH Why are they giving him a retirement treatment? lol
Look at 5:54 daaamn
15:17 :')
Although feel like this particular stat has been somewhat unnaturally-inflated (I mean, play for 20+ seasons ?), Dirk deserved all the props and glory, grats to this man's impact to the game and well-deserved HoF :)
This player is very humble at all times he played.

Doesn't need roids like Le3-6 to be top 10 in scoring
Rudy Cooper wow you are full of hate...🤣🤣🤣roids lol hahahahhahahaha i guess everyone took then roids stop hating and achieve something in your life bum
@@philippghadiri7085 At least i don't cheat
Best WHITE player who ever played in NBA
Nope ... Bird is better
@@holeefuk9894 How ,american citizen??
Dirk is great but no comparison to Bird .
Ho Lee Fuk lol ... kid stop it you have never seen bird play you are probably not older then 14
Ho Lee Fuk bird wouldn’t do shit in todays nba... so unathletic
until he score a 100 points I. a game, NOT....
Dirk did drop 48 pts missing only 3 shots in a playoff game. 48 pts with 15 shot attempts...Wilt's 100 took 63 attempts. Efficiency vs Volume.
End results he still drop 100 and Dirk didn't
