Dirk Nowitzki’s has always had a laid back personality, so it wouldn’t be a surprise that he doesn’t wants all the attention that Kobe Bryant has been receiving as a “farewell tour” since he announced this will be his last season. When Dirk been asked about retirement he’s been pretty straight forward saying that he doesn’t want a long drawn out tour before he leaves, but owner Mark Cuban doesn’t buy Nowitzki’s comments Via SI.Com
Bullshit! Bullshit, bullshit, bullshit, bullshit, bullshit, bullshit! Yeah, he loves that little wave when he comes out and passes a milestone. He loves it. LOOOVES IT! I don’t care what he says. ‘I don’t like going to the All-Star Games. I don’t want a farewell tour.’ He loves it!
“I remember his first All-Star Game, we literally told him he had to pack a knapsack, just in case we roadtrip from Philadelphia to Miami, and he packed one. Me, him and Nash…Oh my God…the shit we did. Can’t believe it’s been, what, 16 years.”
If anyone knows Nowitzki its Cuban, he’s going to do whatever it takes to make sure Dirk retires in style before whether the Mavericks legend cares about it or not.
