    Im a Dallas hater, but Dirk has one of the best playoff runs Ive ever seen! He seems to be a great guy as well and he's good for Dallas.

    Dirk: one of the few NBA players today who NEVER had an actual agent. He himself negotiate his contract to Cuban. That shows how much trust and loyalty he has in Dallas

      Today? He's already retired?
      Maybe you're referring in "today's setting".
      Same goes with Tim Duncan.
      And at some point, both willing to take a paycut for cap flexibility.

    Dirk is always the best! No matter on or off the floor, he inspired so many people to be the better version of themselves. So lucky I witnessed this guy’s whole career since my primary school, thank you Dirk! You will remain the idol of my life forever ❤️

    If Dirk played for a stronger team, he would have won 3-5 championships. Still, winning one championship is amazing. One of the top 5 power forwards of all time. A revolutionary player. Will always enjoy looking back at his career.

      Well, couldn't argue with that.
      Who've thought that would be the Lakers' final run as serious Title contenders in the Kobe Bryant era? ;)
      The Mavs didn't just dethrone; they swept the Lakers in convincing fashion.

    Dirk and Mark Cuban’s “special relationship” turned out to be the reason why Dirk stayed in Dallas his entire career. Dirk is basically untouchable, though Cuban expressed regret years later for not keeping the pairing with Steve Nash.
    Michael Finley was waived in 2005 offseason using the “amnesty clause” so to keep the Mavs for paying luxury tax as penalty for over the salary cap.
    It’s a shame when Cuban needs to lavishly spend (like his early years as owner) so to keep the 2011 Championship team intact, that’s the time he became frugal.
    Probably no one in Milwaukee watched Dirk’s speech.
    Thankfully the Bucks smarten up a bit by drafting and keeping Giannis.

      Or maybe his relationship with the Jet is just plain business.
      It's possible that they're teammates, but not friends.
      Or Dirk was so overwhelmed he forgot mentioning him specifically.

      Fave moment too.
      Dirk is probably not arrogant that season, but the team and Mark Cuban do.
      They felt invincible. In a stroke of bad luck to their end, the Warriors clinched the 8th seed by winning the final regular season game then ex-coach Don Nelson exhibited Dirk's weaknesses.
