Dirk is truly a likeable guy. I have nothing bad to say about him and he brought me some of my most memorable moments as an NBA/Spurs fan.

to Dirk
Though I found this part somewhat humorous:
Last year, minutes prior to Uncle Dirk’s arrival, a young car-accident victim awoke from anesthesia to news that his leg had been amputated. He had been placed on Uncle Dirk’s visit list prior to the amputation.
“Does he still want to see me?” Uncle Dirk asked.
“Well, he kind of does,” he was told.
“That’s fine. I’ll go in.”
The young man vomited several times during the visit. Uncle Dirk never recoiled. Each time, he simply put on a fresh gown.

Folks who didn't watch every game of that playoffs with Dallas probably didn't realize they were down and out in the 1st round until the big Panzer launched himself into the HOF.
One of the best individual playoff runs ever.
I have always liked the guy since he shaved his head in the 2002 season to show support for Don Nelson's wife who was battling breast cancer.
dirks great.
Those kids and their parents are going through things that are unbelievably trying.
Dirk is a cool guy but he's no Kobe, tbh.
You've got that right. Dirk was the first option on a championship team - not a cancerous twelfth option pretending to be the first option.
One of my favorite player ever... big respect for the giant German tbh
you mean he's not a sociopath?
Profile of the Sociopath
This website summarizes some of the common features of descriptions of the behavior of sociopaths.
- Glibness and Superficial Charm
- Manipulative and Conning
They never recognize the rights of others and see their self-serving behaviors as permissible. They appear to be charming, yet are covertly hostile and domineering, seeing their victim as merely an instrument to be used. They may dominate and humiliate their victims.- Grandiose Sense of Self
Feels en led to certain things as "their right."- Pathological Lying
Has no problem lying coolly and easily and it is almost impossible for them to be truthful on a consistent basis. Can create, and get caught up in, a complex belief about their own powers and abilities. Extremely convincing and even able to pass lie detector tests.- Lack of Remorse, Shame or Guilt
A deep seated rage, which is split off and repressed, is at their core. Does not see others around them as people, but only as targets and opportunities. Instead of friends, they have victims and accomplices who end up as victims. The end always justifies the means and they let nothing stand in their way.- Shallow Emotions
When they show what seems to be warmth, joy, love and compassion it is more feigned than experienced and serves an ulterior motive. Outraged by insignificant matters, yet remaining unmoved and cold by what would upset a normal person. Since they are not genuine, neither are their promises.- Incapacity for Love
- Need for Stimulation
Living on the edge. Verbal outbursts and physical punishments are normal. Promiscuity and gambling are common.- Callousness/Lack of Empathy
Unable to empathize with the pain of their victims, having only contempt for others' feelings of distress and readily taking advantage of them.- Poor Behavioral Controls/Impulsive Nature
Rage and abuse, alternating with small expressions of love and approval produce an addictive cycle for abuser and abused, as well as creating hopelessness in the victim. Believe they are all-powerful, all-knowing, en led to every wish, no sense of personal boundaries, no concern for their impact on others.- Early Behavior Problems/Juvenile Delinquency
Usually has a history of behavioral and academic difficulties, yet "gets by" by conning others. Problems in making and keeping friends; aberrant behaviors such as cruelty to people or animals, stealing, etc.- Irresponsibility/Unreliability
Not concerned about wrecking others' lives and dreams. Oblivious or indifferent to the devastation they cause. Does not accept blame themselves, but blames others, even for acts they obviously committed.- Promiscuous Sexual Behavior/Infidelity
Promiscuity, child sexual abuse, rape and sexual acting out of all sorts.- Lack of Realistic Life Plan/Parasitic Lifestyle
Tends to move around a lot or makes all encompassing promises for the future, poor work ethic but exploits others effectively.- Criminal or Entrepreneurial Versatility
Changes their image as needed to avoid prosecution. Changes life story readily.
Other Related Qualities:
- Contemptuous of those who seek to understand them
- Does not perceive that anything is wrong with them
- Authoritarian
- Secretive
- Paranoid
- Only rarely in difficulty with the law, but seeks out situations where their tyrannical behavior will be tolerated, condoned, or admired
- Conventional appearance
- Goal of enslavement of their victim(s)
- Exercises despotic control over every aspect of the victim's life
- Has an emotional need to justify their crimes and therefore needs their victim's affirmation (respect, gra ude and love)
- Ultimate goal is the creation of a willing victim
- Incapable of real human attachment to another
- Unable to feel remorse or guilt
- Extreme narcissism and grandiose
- May state readily that their goal is to rule the world
damn
getting back in topic: Dirk is the man.
Kobe is not as bad as MJ tbh
He is actually not a bad dude.... he is just a MJ wannabe
I can see both sides ...he is not as good or as bad as MJ the sequel is,never usually on par with the original except Empire or Godfather 2
Never a big fan of dirks play style but he was great, and I have even more respect for him as a person.
That said, 2011 Durant was 22 and had played all of 18 playoff games before the matchup with the mavs, hardly near prime. James was just entering his prime (26). Sweeping Kobe pau Bynum and Odom was more impressive than taking down the green Thunder imo
Yeah, Dirk run is overrated b/c of his performance against OKC & the Lakers.
Wade was the best player in the Finals before he got injured in Gm 5 while Dirk shot 40% for the series.
Chandler shutdown the Heat in the 4th quarter of Gm 4, Barea/JET took over in the 2nd half of Gm 5 & JET was the best player in Gm 6.
that team was badass.
underated.

Agreed. Great depth, great versatility, a bunch of savvy, hungry veterans who just knew how to play the game. Obviously Dirk was otherworldly but that whole team was rock-solid up and down the roster. As for Dirk, he's always been one of the good guys.
Dirk outplayed Lebron and Wade in the 4th quarter.

Jason Terry outscored LeChoke for the ENTIRE series including talking smack & hitting a dagger 3 in his face:
Dirk actually had his highest scoring 4th quarter in a Gm 3 loss that Wade dominated from tip off. Otherwise, Wade matched him (took less shots but was more efficient) even in the 4th quarter until getting injured mid-way through Gm 5.
JET was a monster, a ing monster. Stevenson was all up in LBJ's grille.
He raped
He j..... off when she left
and before she left?
