Plus he was doing all of that with 3 different coaches, Nelson, Johnson and Carlisle. Been watching that man play since 01 & I was very happy when he finally won his championship.

[@LegendOfWinningNBA]

Three different coaches with three different coaching styles and philosophies on how they approach the game of basketball. Something that I was going to put in the video but didn't in fear of making it too long. I honestly don't believe people understand how difficult it is to go from strictly offensive-minded coach with Don Nelson to a defensive-minded coach in Avery Johnson and then to a tactician is and Rick Carlisle instill let your organization consistently to 50 wins every year

Legend Of Winning facts. 3 very different coaches and most of his All Star help was with the Don Nelson era.

[@kd35beast24]

To this day I can remember how in 2011 "Heat" fans (now Lakers fans) were talking so big when the Finals approached and they saw that it was Dallas they were matching up with. Those heat fans were talking so much trash saying "ha Dallas only has 1 all star, we have the most talented team in the league, we're gonna destroy them". They also laughed along with Wade and LeBron making fun of Dirk being sick but then as the series progressed and LeBron played like garbage in the 4th and practically the entire series and his 8 point game and after game 6 was done those Heat fans were so upset and butthurt and that was hilarious and now a days those same fans are now making excuses that "Dallas was the favourite and way more talented that series, they were supposed to win" like lol GTFOH losers

[@mase8705]

KD35Beast yeah I hate how people trying to change that narrative. It was suppose to be Lakers vs Heat that year and The Heat was favorited to win. That 2011 Mavericks team was the deepest team that Dirk ever had but still no other All Star help & still won.

[@kurtis664]

As a diehard spurs fan, and with the mavs being a big rivalry especially from 01-2011 (mainly cuz of Dirk) I've grown to respect this man. Stayed with his team the whole time like my favorite Tim Duncan, even dominated Timmy in the playoffs. Spurs had literally no one that could guard him and when you have Bruce Bowen and Tim Duncan on your team and Coach Pop and you still can't stop the man?? That really says something. A pioneer, 7ft big that could shoot and handle the ball well when he was younger, learned to dominate in the post (which led to his infamous fadeaway and championship). Surely an all time great and probly top 30 player all time. I think possible top 5 PF ever. I couldn't even hate on the guy even tho he killed us so much when he played, incredible role model and professional. The list goes on and on

[@duvan.deschain]

And let's not forget during the last game against the Heat, he was sick AF. He was not shooting well because of that, and so he decided to attack the rim and he would leave defenders behind him doing that crazy spin, both on Lebtron and Bosh (if I remember correctly). That game earned him his Hall Of Famer status, and I will never forget it.

As a Mavs fan that watched most of these matchups growing up, I really appreciate this video. Dirk has never truly gotten the amount of respect he deserves.

Thing is the guy is so humble and just plays his game that most never even noticed him quietly creep his way up the all time scoring list. Only Kareem, Karl Malone, Kobe, MJ and Lebron are ahead of him in all time scoring, as he’ll more than likely surpass Wilt once he’s healthy again

Dirk is so underrated. He's part to blame for it though. He could have pulled a Larry Bird with three straight MVPs if the media wasn't bias. Its arguable that he could and should have in my opinion won the MVP in 05, 06, and 07. 05 is the most debatable but he absolutely should have got it in 06. During that same stretch he could also won two titles. They dropped the ball in 06 and completely choked in 07. Just imagine his career if he won 3 straight MVPs and 3 titles. He really would be the next rendition of Joe Bird. Its good though, that one title is worth 3.

Also notable is that, for always being the primary offensive option of his team, Dirk never forced shots or commanded the ball. In fact he never averaged more than 20 shots per game and just 15,6 for the career. This is easily the fewest shots per game among the great scorers in Nba history. His shot selection was off the charts good and always kept the teammates in rhytm. Also he didn't take too many 3s, just 3.4 per game on average and never 5 or more. This allowed him to select his shot better and shoot an astonishing 38% from 3

Lebron put himself in a position to win by switching teams and trading for star teammates. He was also lucky enough to be in the East for most of his career. Imagine if Lebron was drafted to the Western conference, he would get demolished in the 1st round every single year by the Spurs, Mavs and Suns. He most likely would not have a deep playoffs run until he 28 or 29 years old and the reputation he has now.

I think most of us can agree that Tim Duncan is the best Power Forward of all time. But my question is, who do you guys have as your 2nd best PF of all time? A. Dirk B. Karl Malone C. Kevin Garnett D. Other (reply with your answer)

[@excellenceka]

Dirk 2nd only because Malone had Stockton. If Dirk had Nash for his career, I think he'd have around the same number of points as Malone and probably >=2 rings. KG is like 4th or 5th at best

Inspirational video!!! 2nd Greatest Power Forward of All-Time is accurate.

[@Mikesworld214]

Fantastic video bro.

[@bizzle5303]

You are right about the West being the best ever at that time

2:55 AI badass, can't help but notice haha

[@joshdixon655]

My favorite player of all time, and imo, a top 15 player of all time.

[@void_virtuous]

My All Time Line Up Is Magic, MJ, Bron, Dirk, Hakeem.

2:30 man I love it when I’m a 2x Steve Nash

[@danillamour]

Dirk didn't have a playoff team for 20 years straight... He's the best PF of All Time

[@purge-szn9961]

Dirk is the greatest PF of all time, duncan would be number 1 but he was a system player, surrounded by all stars throught his whole career not to mention a top 5 greatest coach of all time in pop, i feel like if duncan was on those maverick teams that dirk was on he would of had nearly the type of success that dirk had

[@Dirkified14]

Lets not forget that 8 over 1 upset had dirks ex-coach.

[@Supreme_Rage]

That's why he is 10 in my list
