Dirk needs to talk about this story at Barkley’s funeral lol. You know Charles isnt a liar because he tells the same 7 stories every month 😂 i love hearing the Dirk story even if I have heard it a dozen times already!
Jordan is the greatest. He did the most and did it flawlessly. But he did it against poorer competition. Lebron has produced more in ever meaningful statistic, more consistently, over a longer period of time. He hadn't won as many championships. Those are a team stat though
Dirk's mid range and high post game was absolute God tier level. One of the best the game has ever seen. His 3 point shooting was just an extra dimension to that God tier skill set.
@@TheGreatestJediOfAllTime you seem to forget the Lakers didn't do much after the 2010 championship and the main reason was the huge contract they gave Bryant, when he was way past his prime and couldn't rebuild for years, Dirk on the other hand, like Tim Duncan, showed his commitment to the franchise by being willing to negotiate a contract that allow his team to be competitive and also being compensated.

Jokic won a championship and didn’t face a single team who had more than 48 wins. Dirk won a championship going through the toughest gauntlet of opponents probably ever without an all star teammate
I agree the 2011 mavs run was harder, but last year the nuggets were the #1 seed in the west with 53 wins, so I don't think it's surprising they didn't play teams with 48+.
jason Kidd is old at that point, he's more of a just a spot up shooter @@BAMSE64 Marion was more of a defender at that point, removed from his PHX days
Dirk was killing it in that tough hard ball basketball!! Dude was tough as nails!! Dirk is one of the greatest basketball players of all time - and I know this is controversial, but dirk should be in the goat conversation!
he doesn't got the stats nor hardware to be on there as much as I like Dirk. Curry ain't even on the GOAT convo even if he's the best offensive force of all time due to lack of defense, and he's got more hardware than Dirk.
In all of respect to the Joker he’s not over Nowitzki yet … probably will but not yet. Dirk is 6th all time scoring that’s very very hard to do. One of the toughest play off runs ever on his shoulders. I love the joker and he will surpass him anytime soon but not yet
Same amount of rings, more MVPs, and in the books for triple dbls and assists for a center...he's done more individually than Dirk already...as a die hard life long Lakers fan I still love Dirk but Jokic as a individual player has accomplished more and a bit more versatile than Dirk
Man, I like Dirk a lot but career stats don’t mean that much if you’re on garbage teams that do nothing in the playoffs, and that’s what the Mavs were for years after winning the ‘11 Finals. So I think Jokic already passed him but if he gets another MVP trophy or another title, case closed.

He just got Petrovich confused with Peja because clearly Peja was a decade later. Kukoc was good but Arvy, Drazen and Marciulinos were all better IMO so not a big deal. Arvy had GOAT potential before the Achilles tear and still ended up a HOF. Drazen is one of the most accurate shooters of all time and his last two years in NJ showed that he was the real deal as a big time bucket getter in the Association. Reggie Miller calls him the best shooter he's ever played against. Marčiulionis was the original Manu Ginobli and just like Drazen, would thrive in today's pace and space. He was incredibly strong (steroids?) and would rip the ball out of his opponents hands then take it coast to coast with THE ORIGINAL Euro step. His efficiency was incredible for his era and he showed he could shoot the three after getting injured and developing his technique. Just like Manu he cooked off the bench but could have started anywhere that he wasn't behind Mitch Richmond and Chris Mullin. Kukoc gets a bit overrated due to the Bulls being arguably the best team of all time (I think the KD warriors but it's a valid argument). Toni was a very talented "point forward" but his shot was inconsistent and he was a minus defender. His passing made him a great fit for the Bulls but of the guys listed he's the only one who wasn't good enough to be your teams leading scorer at their peak and combined with poor defense keeps him a tier below the others.
I disagree Jokic haven’t passed Dirk yet. Dirk is top 5 top 10 in scoring. Beat Prime Lebron with 2 other top 75 in their prime as a super team and Dirk didn’t have a solid #2. And another championship appearance where the ref who called that series ended up in prison for gambling on it. Dirk was up 2-0 before the fix was in. Joker still have to put in work. Also Dirk is a top 75 of all time.
Jokic and dirk are both top 75. Dirk in my opinion top 30. Jokic somewhere around 30 as well. If jokic wins finals mvp this year as well. He has got to have passed Dirk.
Look I’m a Mavericks fan and born and raised in DFW. Dirk is a legend in this town. But Jokic is a better player right now than Dirk ever was. Jokic was a the most complete center then game has ever seen. Walking triple double. 3 time league MVP and has a ring. He will easily finish as a top 50 player and maybe top 25. Im just being honest here. I watched Dirk play his entire career as a Dallas fan. But my eye test tells me that right now in his prime he’s better than Dirk. His basketball IQ is off the charts.
Joker is better bro, the team around Jokic only looks as good as it does because he is the piece that makes it all go. Dirk is amazing though but it's honestly a different level of dominance of the game
This whole reply section is insane? "Jokic might finish as top 25" ??? Bro he is already top 20, what are you talking about?? The other dude said he is coming close to top 30. Hahahhahaa do u guys even know how many players has 3 mvps? Or how many achivements jokic made that was made by 1 or 2 player before, or none. Do u even know how many records he is holding right now? Do your research and stop waiting for something to be in the past to appreciate it. Jokic maybe still making history, but he also already made a lot of it. 1 ring, 3 mvps, 1 final mvp, top 5 triple double list, goat passing center, one of the best passers ever in general, fastest triple double ever, and goat advance stats, no olayer ever has better advanced stats than jokic. If that is not top15 please explain to me what is. If he had won second ring this year bro is closer to top10 than top20, and yall have him at 30. What kind of delusion is this?
Talk about all the advanced stats you want but Joker isn’t beating Prime Bron Prime Wade and Prime Bosh in any world .. Joker barely could beat a 40 YO Bron lmaoo
This doesn't get mentioned about Dirk a lot, but he's possibly the only player in NBA history to knock down free throws with a player's teeth embedded on his arm.😅
Everyone needs to watch “The Perfect Shot,” it’s a full length Dirk documentary on UA-cam and it’s absolutely fantastic. The star is his German coach/mentor who is the only reason Dirk made it to the NBA, HOLGER. Holger is the greatest human alive
if you look at the espn alltime ranks you can see a lot goin on in the scoring sector, some in the assist and steals sector, but blocks and rebounds are a STALEMATE of the ogees of two to three decades ago at least. that gives you an impression whats up with nba basketball since two decades
I am a born & raised Rockets fan but even I won't ever disrespect Dirk's legacy. I will always root against anybody in it Western Southwest but it was hard to not congratulate when Dirk got his ring.
Rudy gets flak not because we don't respect defense. But because he's a perennial DPOY and yet he is still sought out for the switch in the playoffs and isolated. If the one thing you are supposed to do is play defense and you get targeted on defense, thats a problem.
Jokic didn’t only go in the 2nd round. He went in the middle of the 2nd round during a Taco Bell commercial if I remember correctly. They quite literally didn’t think he’d be anything. They gave Taco Bell his entire draft moment.
6:22 this is why I don’t watch sports much anymore. Defense was always my favorite part of any game. Defense is my favorite form of domination. People miss so much by not watch the classic Piston Bulls games. Rodman and Jordan shutting down every All-Star in the league was better than Jordan scoring. You just see the joy of life being sucked out someone like Shaq is priceless. Growing up I watched the Raiders. Nothing is better than 80’s Raiders keeping a team under 10.
Being global is NBA's biggest superpower, more than any other US sports league. The fact that you got NBA players being popular in other countries is such a big deal. Tom Brady is super popular, but idk how big he'll be in say, Indonesia. Shoutout to the late great David Stern and the Dream Team.
How many pivots moves do you wanna see with joker? I wanna watch a game like durk nothing but net jumpers , fadeaways, any shot on top of everything we see joker doing now
Back to Barkley saying Jordan had the first show deal Julius Erving Doctor J had the first show Converse leather high tops Dr.Js i had a pair alot of people had them the first signature shoe
Kobe didn’t struggle right away coming into the league. Kobe came in an era where the NbA wasn’t giving straight from high school rookies minutes. Kobe didn’t have an opportunity because of Eddie jones starting. Kobe would have had way more points had he gotten minutes his first 2 seasons

Kevin Durant used to dribble the ball all the way down court with no hands. The defender looked down and saw he was dribbling with his d*ck 🤩🥪💨🙌
At 7 foot that one foot fadeaway was unguardable
I want to like your comment, but I leave it at 41 likes. So true.
Now we have wemby and jokic and embiid😂

No 7 foot person in the army….😂😂😂😂😂😂. The first guy shot.
And this is the reason why the rules have changed and also the style of play has changed.
This is a true story
Nobody ever has a bad word to say about Hakeem. Even Barkley didn’t have anything to say. Not often is Barkley searching for words.
The most underrated player is Bill Russell (HM, Hakeem, Isiah, Moses).
2nd, GOAT candidates dont have a negative finals record.
Dirk is not better than the DREAM. It’s not even a debate.
CLUB SHAY 🔉 💯💪🏿
I DON'T KNOW WHAT SHAY WAS WATCHING BUT IT WAS DWIGHT HOWARD THAT LOCKED DOWN THE JOKER
jokic passed dirk? tf are they smoking
It was hard for me to say jokic was better than nuggets Melo. But jokic is gettin better and better
@@ChromeHeart-hx2msJokic is being exposed by the Timberwolves
@@darnellwilliams8783 Nuggets lost because Jamal Murray and Aaron Gordon did nothing offensively. Jokic scored more than both of those guys combined.
@@darnellwilliams8783😂 more Murray getting exposed
Can't wait for the wolves to bounce them so the hype can die
Oscar Robinson is the most underrated player in the NBA.
Kobe didn’t struggle right away coming into the league. Kobe came in an era where the NbA wasn’t giving straight from high school rookies minutes. Kobe didn’t have an opportunity because of Eddie jones starting. Kobe would have had way more points had he gotten minutes his first 2 seasons
Dirk wouldnt be unkown at 18 todaym he would get all the NIL money and be top 3 pick
Luka is like what ahout me!!!
Dirk is underated
That last part about LBJ tho. Man if he didn't force Bronny in just for his "legacy" he could have stayed clean.
Milwaukee chose Dirk, the same way Charlotte picked Kobe. The deal was already done beforehand.
