The tall German man stood uncertainly at the head of the vast aisle of freezer units which extended in front of him. Despite being much taller than his wife, his fearful demeanor made it seem as if he was cowering behind her like a child, even though he was just standing behind her normally. “I’m…

Dirk Nowitzki 20 Points/1 Final Game Full Highlights (4/10/2019)
I already used up all of the sentimentality I feel towards Dirk’s departure from the NBA in the previous video description I wrote for him. You can read the story here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CDwLsk-712A (I promise it’s not a Rickroll, I would not taint such a solemn occasion with such juvenile foolishness). I don’t have many words…

Dirk Nowitzki stood on the clouds. To either side of him were ornate Romanesque columns that extended into the distance until they disappeared into the haze. Seeing nothing else to do, he walked down the colonnade with only his thoughts to keep him company. Dimly, he remembered that he had just finished playing in a…

Unlike Dwyane Wade, I can kinda see why Dirk Nowitzki would maybe be sorta contemplating retiring. He’s not looking very spry out there, and that’s putting it generously. He can kind of do stuff on offense still, because the thing with moving on offense is that you know which direction you’re going so you can…

Dirk Nowitzki looked so washed at the beginning of the season. I could take my car to a car wash and it would roll out of there looking less washed than Dirk looked in the first half of this season. Perhaps admitting this outs me as not a true Dirk believer, but even his most…

Screw off with this “retirement tour” BS. It’s so corny. Luckily, for his part, Dirk Nowitzki seems slightly embarrassed by the whole thing. So I’m not blaming him (unlike how I’m blaming Dwyane Wade, FOH outta here with that jersey swap garbage) for people wanting to make a big show out of his retirement. Except…

There are 23 games left in the regular season. Dirk Nowitzki needs 92 points to pass Wilt Chamberlain and secure 6th place in the career point total leaderboard (he also needs 191 to pass LeBron again, assuming LeBron dies right now and doesn’t rise again on the third day). The question on everybody’s minds: can…
Read MoreDirk Nowitzki 14 Points Full Highlights (1/30/2019)
It took a long time, a really long time, almost two whole decades worth of time, but Dirk Nowitzki is finally slowing down. Last year he looked like he could go for a few more seasons, he wasn’t amazing or anything (unless you consider his age), but he was still good. Now, I feel like…
Read MoreDirk Nowitzki 19 Points Full Highlights (3/20/2018)
The list of people who have assisted Dirk Nowitzki on a shot is undoubtedly really long, and full of really weird names. I would only be 50 percent surprised to find that Mark Cuban was on it. Kyle Collinsworth is definitely on it now, if he wasn’t before, which he probably was. I don’t know,…
Read MoreDirk Nowitzki 23 Points Full Highlights (3/4/2018)
It’s a sad time to be living in when Dirk Nowitzki’s season high in points is just 23, considering that he played seven straight seasons where he averaged 23 points per game or more. Then again, it’s also a happy time to be living in when 39-year-old Dirk Nowitzki can continue to give us vintage…
