LA Clippers Head coach Doc rivers made a nice gesture to Dirk Nowitzki who is retiring this year...
and as a last game with the Clippers, Doc Rivers bid farewell to one of the most iconic person who shared passion to his NBA career, loyalty to a franchise and being one of the future hall of famers in the basketball league.
We salute you Dirk Nowitzki! - Спорт
Doc Rivers despite of his NBA record is still classy. You can give him that.
Indeed!
I miss Dirk 😢
Yeah, me too. A very humble man who is the very soul of the team. His statue is there to prove it. His contribution to the big men in NBA changed the NBA forever and his representation as a european player is another testament of his greatness.
Being from Dallas I will always be like this towards Dirk, And I understand why but it is such a huge honor to see the rest of the NBA organization as a whole treat this man with the respect that he truly deserves. I don't really see that with anybody else at all. You might get that from LeBron when he retires or somebody like that and I just love that this man has the same power with his single championship win. That championship was the first championship I experienced in Dallas and I felt feelings I've never felt before or since when he got that w. Love that dude so much
I was still in the Philippines when I chose Mavs as my fave team, Steve nash, Michael finley, Dirk Nowitzki, Don nelson and mark cuban all started the franchise we knew and love.
Now I am in Italy they don't understand why Dirk is special like LBJ, Dwayne wade etc.
I always start and end my discussions with them that Dirk has a statue in front of his homecourt like kobe and jordan has.
I'm a Filipino and somehow I connected with Dirk, twas taboo in my time to shoot the ball from the arc and be a stretch forward coz I am considered a "big" in my country, yet I am underweight but just a regular 6, which is considered tall in the Philippines. And Now all those bigs needs to have atleast a mid range and be stretch forwards before they can move up the ladder in drafts.
Dirk revolutionized and contributed to the game in different ways and will always be remembered all around the world.
@@TheOFWProjectWorld Big men like Kevin Durant modeled their playstyle to that of Dirk. He revolutionized the position.
Dirk took us through 20 years of an awesome ride. Can' t watch the 2011 Finals vids without tearing up. He and Jet Terry stood in there and took all the shots from fans and naysayers from 2007 -2010. Some dark moments. But he kept at it. We pulled so hard for him and it paid off.
@@noeltaylor3594 Yes man, we're always in the playoffs since the 2000s. Dirk being consistent on the team, losing nash and the almoat 2006. Dirk has one of the hardest runs ever, it didn't started at 2011 though, it started since 2006 when we lost to miami. Started when we lost don nelson and lose to the no. 8 seed with coach nelson coaching the warriors, started when Dirk doesnt have a good center or a good wingman until the retirees came into 2011 and made one of the hardest most underdog runs ever.
When they won the 15 point-deficit in Miami, I told myself this is it for Miami, you woke up Dirk!
That's the halftime where Leb and Wade were clowning and saying a lot of things to Dirk. And they became footnote of that season for that.
Quite the moment.
indeed!
Dirk should have two rings. Coaching and refs in Miami Finals one of the worst let downs of a team of all time. True Legend. The way he and Jet Terry took out LeBron was must see Finals ever.
well he did beat lebron bosh and wade
One of the best runs ever man!
That's the key of what he said...one of the greatest of all time.nice touch doc
I'm not going to say the best. I'm not qualified to do so. But I think that the whole 2011 playoffs for the Mavs was one of the greatest runs of all time.
:))))) Very good
I appreciate it man! He didn't only changed how the big men are drafted today but he is one of those who proved that Europeans can make a difference in the NBA as well.
@@TheOFWProjectWorld Amen!
He shud have walked over to Doc Rivers and shook his hand
Yeah but perhaps at the moment he is still at his moment so yeah. but yeah, he should have.
He's Dirk Nowitzki. He shud have done whatever the hell he felt like.
Glen is the dumbest coach in NBA history lol I mean after Vogel 😂
They're better than you than you are at your job... wait you don't have one.
