Imagine having the trio of Dirk, Pau and Tony on your first podcast. Setting the highest of standards from the beginning!
Why imagine we are watching exactly that?
he turned his son into a woman
Y put tony last bitch ?
Dawg shyt on the game….
The Glazing is crazy
Fun Fact: Every year from 2005 to 2014 Dirk, Tony, Pau, and Dwade were in the finals at some point between those years
Who asked?
Ok espn
Shows how dominant they were you schmucks.
And they won 9 of them
@@Loquacious_Jackson no one! but I certainly don't mind seeing that factoid, either. have a blessed day
The way Dirk refers to the current Mavs as 'we' is just wholesome, he's literally a Dallas Maverick for life
He never went anywhere else, even though he should've because they're a dog water organisation that waste star talent. They weren't even tryna win when they won, they got a bunch of old vets on cheap contracts.
He is currently an advisor for the Mavs, so technically he is employee and can use "we" .
@@KevinTaNet He should tell them to win a bit more
He works in the organization. Probably the most loyal player besides Kobe in all of basketball.
@@castorchua16-2 in their last 18. Guess he really followed your advice and told them to win more
Spain, France, USA, Germany… this is how a podcast should be. Nice of these guys to chop it up!
Pau is from Catalonia though.
Exactly, which is located in northern Spain
@@jonathanm9069Catalonia is Spain. Kosovo is Serbia.
@@jonathanm9069I mean, is like if u say, no, dwade is from Chicago...
thats spain buddy@@jonathanm9069
Still feels like yesterday when these 4 were still in the NBA. Time flies.
Im 30 and So true like yesterday I remember flash beating the mavs in 06 pau helping kobe win 2 more then dirk beating the heatlals tony playing like an mvp in the first finals they lost to mia or tp best moment when he swept the cavs but man what history we have
It's all still fresh in my mind as well man💯🏀
Time is a fucking bitch
5 year is yesterday.
man, I still remember this baby face killer entering the league
Dirk aged like fine wine. Man looks great !
He had no other choice with what he had it in the beginning. I like him a lot though, did a photo shoot with him once for FIBA and got to play basketball with him. Very nice guy genuinely.
@@modern_methodyoure first half comment is confusing af😅
Strong German genes 💪
Seeing Dirk and D Wade getting along just feels weird but good at the same time
💯
True competitors and rivals throughout their careers, but always classy and respectable men on and off the court too. Just can’t hate either of them.
The magnitude of Dirk's only championship is equal to 3 normal nba championships. That's a very difficult run.
Dumbest thing I've ever read
It's worth more than all LeBron's sugarbaby rings.
@@VVVY777damn the hate and delusion is strong with you
I agree
He never needed to whine for a super team. He just lined up and played hard with what they had each and every year.
Terrible take
I'm so glad Tony Parker said w/ such confidence that "Luka is no Dirk" and doubled down on it w/ such a good answer. Because Dirk is in a certain class of all-time players and Luka is nowhere near that yet. Dirk is so humble and kind of downplays his career, but he is easily one of the Top 15 players to ever play in the NBA. THANK YOU TONY!
Seen dirk flame out and disappear in playoff series too many times before his one title. Luka is one of the best playoff performers of all time already. If Luka wins an MVP and a title, which he most likely will, he will clear Dirk very easily.
Dirk give's Luka his flowers because Luka is legit more talented/skilled than Dirk was at his peak. But so are most players today asf the range of toolbox/bag compared to that time. Dirk was actually Luka before Luka tho, in that he was the offense and there was a stretch where Dirk was just a lock for 50 wins. So yeah, Dirk is greater and arguably the best mid range scorer of all time bar MJ only, but I also get why Dirk said Luka is already better. Drop today's Luka with his skillset and size in early 2000s and he would stand out even more than he already does compared to his peers.
@@JonathanWoodallthere’s so much crap that inflates stats nowadays tho. They’re making it easier to score by making it harder to play defense. If talent is supposedly better, defensive talent should excel just as equally and level out any huge jumps in ppg. But 30 or 25 ppg is commonplace now. And players way past the age of their prime are still scoring at prime levels. It’s because it’s not the same game.
@@LOveDoctorMusic23 They aren't making it harder though. JJ reddick goes on a rant about this. All the recent rule changes have favored the defense and we are still seeing record offenses. They keep having to make new rules that favor the defense because offensive players keep evolving the game to gain fouls. Harden/CP3 were taking advantage of the lack of rules so they made new ones to prevent them from drawing the rip through foul. The assumption that defensive talent should excel just as much isn't true either, because you're not taking into account roster construction. It's not simply that players got better, its also that teams started favoring skill in general because the math favored it, same way with 3pt shooting. You could argue that Tony Allen, the best defender of his generation, wouldn't be on a finals team in today's NBA. He'd be on a team, like Smart but even Draymond impacted the game offensively way more than Tony. Closest comparison is Jrue and he's an elite offensive player. Teams cant afford to have offensive liabilities anymore and that's because offensive production started to heavily outweigh defensive impact. Think about it. On Christmas, Luka accounted for 92 points for the mavs. No defensive player mathematically impacts the game that much. I'm not saying it's good basketball to rely on Luka to do that, thats not the point. It's just that its simply not possible to do that defensively. You still need to be able to score and when you have someone like Luka, who is doubled nearly twice as much as the next guy and still can generate offense like that, you take that above any defensive player in NBA history. You're right that its not the same game and that stats are inflated but they are inflated because of offensive skill. That skill also creates longevity and adaptability, which is why 2010 stars are lasting so long.
@@andrewchester3527Dirk only had 1 bad playoff series in his career, and that 2007 vs warriors. Even all the series that he lost in, he was dominating.
Seeing 4 retired legends just hang out and talk about the game and their lives, this is so awesome to see!
Facts
What a room to be in
@@bulletwittheblankface4173 I agree bro
Thank you Dirk for mentioning Dražen. Respect. I was the last fan he shook his hand.I was there at the game in Germany .
R.I.P.
That's crazy
The crazy part is a piece of him is Inside me. I play ball at summer amateur leagues.But that is not me playing it s something much more. Basketball is my religion .Dražen is god and Kobe is Jesus.
Damn
A a spanish basketball fan, everytime I see Pau is a blessing. And...to me, the best memory I have from him is not any of the trophies or finals. Yes, it was back in 2015 when in the Eurobasket semifinals against France, playing in France he carried not just his fans, but the whole country. His face, that BEAST mode and the feeling of "this man has 40 million people laying on his shoulders" and we are all safe in his hands. It wasn't about money, they surely got well paid for that, but money didn't matter. It was about competing and give a 300% for your flag when you have everything against you. I cried watching that game for how beautiful a sport can be and make you feel as a fan...and it was a semifinal. THANKS PAU. Surely them 4 are all legends and I admire them too. But after that game you are my particular Hall of Fame President.
Ese partido fue la.puta hostia
El mejor partido que he visto en mi vida, pura dominancia
I am Spurs fan, Dirk is amazing!
Greetings from Brazil
Todo BR é hype train para SAS e GSW pqp
For a basketball podcast, these three guys are so gentle and tamed. So, refreshing.
I remember the coughing incident like it was yesterday. I still think this was one of the best finals series and the Dirk was incredible. Maybe some of the best single performances ever of an MVP. His shooting was surgical in that series. An he redeemed himslf with clutch play after clutch play. Masterful.
A legendary conversation! This interview should be in the hall of fame itself
Wow! Tony should have a podcast too man. He's a natural and good at it. He asks great questions man.
He has a channel called Skweek but it is in french
It was a true honour watching those four legends play basketball at the highest level. I watched their every championship on TV .It was such a good time. Man I feel old now.
Glad to live in an era where we got to hear 4 hall of famer talk about their and each other stories, and for free.
Looking forward for Pat Riley episode.
This is amazing & shout out to Dwade for putting this together 🥲miss all my GOATS 🖤
Tony’s resume is nuts 😂🤣😂 gotta love it!!
As a kid that grew up watching these players battle it out for years. This round table conversation is crazy to me. These guys battled it out for years !
Tony is very well spoken!
I am absolutely impressed with the communication skills of Dwyane. He is intelligent, he seems to be humble and a very nice guy 😊. Great job with this channel man, I really enjoyed the whole video with all these 3 amazing guests. Waiting for more content already ❤. Greetings from Spain 🇪🇸
Good to see Wade and Dirk clear out the old coughing beef from 2011. So much media spins going back and forth.
For the culture!
I also love how Dwyane and Dirk get along now. You can really feel how much they respect each other now.
the boys battled at the highest level@@fabianhauser708
@@fabianhauser708 rivals respect each other more at the end of the journey. They know they needed each other to get to that level .
What beef. They had no beef. Simple minded people made the notion that there's a beef.
@@younglove3362 Call it whatever you like. Animosity, a beef..they most defineteley did not like each other at all. And i love that they went in the hall together and talked about it on this platform. Since 2011 and this childish moment, i had no respect for Wade anymore. At least Lebron praised Dirk in the following years for his accomplishments. D Wade didn`t. So, great to hear and see that now..
I met dwade back in 05 at the original NBA store in Manhattan. Was able to watch his whole career . Absolute legend
I love how Dirk has a true fan in Tony. So wholesome!
Only Dwayne can gather these amazing big name people together to talk on camera, excited to see more and more!
Just realized at least one of them was in the nba finals each year from 2005 to 2014.
2005 : Tony
2006 : Dirk & Dwayne
2007 : Tony
2008 - 2010 : Pau
2011 : Dirk & Dwayne
2012 : Dwayne
2013 - 2014 : Tony & Dwayne
And at least one of them has won the championship from 2005-2014, except 2008. Wow, simply wow... talk about owning a whole effin' DECADE!!!:
2005: Tony - Spurs
2006: Wade - Heat
2007: Tony - Spurs
2008
2009: Pau - Lakers
2010: Pau - Lakers
2011: Dirk - Mavericks
2012: Wade - Heat
2013: Wade - Heat
2014: Tony - Spurs
My Idol DWade now have a Podcast... Super sad that Kobe is no longer with us. He could have been a great guest here.
Nothing makes me happier now knowing Dwyane Wade has his own podcast! I’ve been listening to all these other NBA guys podcasts, now I can wake up to my all time favourite player knowing there’s something dope to listen to every week! Thanks Wade and congratulations! 🍷👏
Same. I'm really excited about this.
Hellya 😂😂 my favorite player behind Kobe, Wade was the truth Been waiting on this 💪
@@cedricasdfghjkl9151lessgooo!!
@@orlandowilliamson691Kobe would have done a pod for sure! That would have been killer! RIP Black Mamba ❤
I just hope he posts often, I’m sure he’s a really busy guy, much more than the average retired NBA player.
How dare you not include NBA MVP in Dirk Nowitzki’s into 😤
Beautiful conversation among legends. Awesome stuff.
Thanks for this awesome conversation between these legends. So refreshing to see the mutual respect and maturity, especially between Dirk and DWade. Like many other Germans of my generation, I was a Dirk/Mavs fan when he entered the league and got more and more engaged as the years passed. Having followed Dirk's career through all the initial troubles, sudden stardom, expecation build up and subsequent massive pain in 2006, 2007 and the years after, despite always recognizing the greatness of DWade I could never bring myself to actually liking him during all those years... and of course savoured every moment of showdown in the 2011 run. :)) But now it's just fantastic to see two former competitors get along so well despite their past rivalries (even if more so for Dirk than for DWade, who maybe didn't even think of it as a rivalry). Big respect for DWade, incredible player, same for Tony and Pau and of course Dirk, who got a whole country basketball crazy. I'm glad I closely followed the sport in the primes of these guys.
From acting childish back then to now being grown adult men
Love to see that Dwayne
After watching this, I miss the NBA I grow up watching
Yup that was actual basketball actual plays were being ran not just pick and rolls and shooting threes
Wow, what a great meeting. I am an absolute fan of Pau, but I have had a lot of fun watching the other 3 great players. I love seeing the enormous respect and admiration they have for each other, and the many stories they would have to tell us.
My utmost respect and admiration for them 4. They would only need a humble shooter who defended more or less well to make an unbeatable team.
06 finals was the first one I watched. Such a heartbreak as a 11 y/o Dirk fanboy.
In time, unintentionally, I grew my shooting dynamics a bit quirky resembling Dirk's; I got the nickname Nowitzki in high school.
badass bro
It's so refreshing seeing older players wanting the new generation to do well and be proud of them raising the bar even higher
these 4 legends were apart of any 2000s kid that was an NBA fan
Amazing conversation with all four hall of famers. Shoutout to Dirk and D Wade for talking about their differences with respect and civility. Glad to see them laughing and talking about the battles. Subscribed and stoked for part two 🙏🏻
I love this so much! It shows the massive impact of worldwide influence the game of basketball has. I dearly miss this era.. grew up watching these icons and appreciated their accomplishments.
Almost felt like a therapy session for Dirk there. What stuck out to me was how you almost never see him get shaken up like that in interviews. It was very nice of you to give him the opportunity to have that conversation
These 4 legends whom I hated and loved at the same time is one of the reasons why I am an NBA fan for life.
This should be the best podcast out here. Great speaker , humble and knows his stuff. Might end up being my fav podcast
Man all the battles these 4 had. Wonderful first episode!
This is great. Thank you all for doing this
Great 1st episode. Can't wait for episode 2.
My Heroes! Growing up and understand the game during the time all these great players are playing. Thank you for this.
Man. I love this so much. Im old now. This is my gen. I watch this all day man. This is great.
Beautiful and really touching conversation. Thank you❤
2001 draft classmates Pau & Tony congrats! To all of you 🎊 🎉 #Big ISO
Loved this conversation. D wade was always my favorite SG man. Great content 3
Putting these legends to have a conversation was legendary and also hilarious…tony Parker is hilarious lol all man I was cracking up I was 7-15 watching these fellas I’m 26 now
We getting old bro
same here these 4 were a huge part of the golden era that was 2000s NBA
4 of the greatest players in 2000's not gonna lie.
I’m a couple minutes in and I know this is going to be epic. These guys had so many battles and to see them together is special.
Dirk my boy d town legend
Great episode! Keep ‘em coming.
It’s crazy to get all these guests in the first podcast!
That Ray Allen training for a corner 3 is crazy 🔥
Man, this podcast really threw me for a loop. Excellent job
As far as first episodes go, this is legendary. My generation’s superstars. Damn.
Damn! I've been watching pods for a long time, but this is the strongest lineup I've seen as far as lineup of guests. This is how you start. Imma subscribe day 1 for sure! 💪
How does Dwayne wade only have 100k subscribers. Dude is a fuckin legend. Hope his content is as dope as his career
This was definitely a treat to listen to. There were so many nostalgic moments in this interview
*that 2011 Mavs run was Wild. I feel like it didn't matter who you were, if you got in the way, you were getting smoked 😂 only thing crazier than that was the 2014 Spurs run. EVERYBODY knew Spurs were coming back with heaters that year, it was personal* 💀
the crazy part is that in 2014, the toughest team that the Spurs have to face were the Mavericks. the 8th seeded Mavericks which they have a back and forth game.
@@robertdominicceasarsalvill2221damn as a Mavs fan we really thought that time that they can beat the first seed Spurs not until Blair got ejected on very close game 4 and suspended on game 5, they could have been up 3-1 on that game..
makes me feel old when i can remember all these guys playing at the highest level. also DWade is showing his inner Kobe... with all the thought he is putting into his podcast. 🥺
D-Wade, going over the top with the gold mic for a first episode on his podcast. I love it.
This was an amazing podcast can’t wait for the next episode
I love this interview..3 of my favorite players ever
Loved it man. Congrats on the channel.
TP is such a good story teller.
bro this gotta be the goatest 'NBA' podcast so far LMAO 4 fkin LEGENDS
Thank you guys for the fierce competitiveness every game a fan can ask for from the best players to play the game you guys are a reason millions of people love this game. As a mavs fan dirk was my basketball idol growing up and I had never seen a team of my liking win anything so it was special for me seeing them win. These guys definitely made a mark on the game and will always be grateful that I was able to watch there greatness and help give me an amazing childhood with my family watching you guys. Thank you so so much .
anyone clocked their championship rings?
Dirk - 1
Pau - 2
Dwade - 3
Tony - 4
Grew up watching these 4 battle it out every year! Damn time flies!
Tony shutting down Dirk name Luka as the next Dirk was so 🥲🥲 💔💔 It was so sweet the respect they each have for eachother
Man Dirk was a Monster in his Prime. One of the Best of all time
The demeanor of NBA champions are so different. Calm and collected demeanor. Podcast tone is really of high quality.
This is awesome ! Thanks Dwade !
Thank you for this opportunity to listen a chat of four greats, Dwyane, love the dynamics Euro players brought to the NBA
Mavs v Heat 2011 was truly one of the all time great NBA Finals of my lifetime. I'm 38 and aside from maybe the Heat Spurs finals with the Ray Allen shot, I cant recall a more fun series.
Dirks one ring is singe Handedly one of the greatest ring in NBA history!
This is my childhood right here, 2000's era of basketball... such a shame that Kobe's gone, might be one of the guest here in the future or at other podcast.
what a way to open a podcast. looking forward to more of these.
This is gold!
Love you dirk!!
Great podcast! Very insightful and interesting from NBA legends. Love from Puerto Rico!
In my opinion Dirk is by far the goat European player, I think Parker is the most underrated player in nba history and my fav European player
great panel..perfect way to start it off
GOATED first episode for a podcast
TP and Dwyne need their own podcast
D. Wade, I send you greetings from Bishkek (Kyrgyzstan). I love you, bro. Your game made my life happy
My fav time watching the nba was when these greats are esp D Wade & Dirk
This was an awesome conversation
In their prime this would be a killer starting lineup. Dirk pau in the post tp and wade in the backcourt sheesh
Well a starting lineup is 5, so they would be at a disadvantage on defense lol
Idk you throw me in as a 6ft SF too I think we could have a chance to win
@@MHBULLSFAN insert any nba small forward at the three and they would still be killer
@@jms974 you didn't say that the 1st time. A shooter or defender
This was great wade, loved that you talked about everything and didn't shy away from topics, real man stuff and real good first episode 🔥👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Took me 10 days to find this but this is like the best start to a podcast that I’ve watched, excited for future shows
Congrats WADE on the new podcast 🎉
This podcast is gonna be 🔥🔥
"I'm running through that m...." - RIP Kobe.
Great Podcast! Thank you very much for this!
Yo Tony is a natural 😂 i didn't know he had such sense of humor too.
Dirrkkkkkkkk....Pau , Tony and Wade 🔥 so much fun watching this
