Dirk Nowitzki Is Saving Dallas Basketball One Shot at a Time

[DULLAH]

This sort of reminds me of the interview I recently watched with a very young Dirk (19 or 20) and Shaq, in front of a huge outdoor crowd in a plaza in Germany. Dirk was really shy yet composed and Shaq seemed admiring and appreciative of the very different vibe of such a grande venue. Dirk was quite highly thought of by most of the 90's NBA elite, after several spectacular showings against top level talent. I even remember the greatest of them all commenting rather positively after a young Dirk (rook or 2nd year) dropped 40-something on MJ's wizards.
