Dirk Nowitzki can be considered clutch starting now...
2008-04-11 07:43:00 If you didn't see just watch, especially the 'Dirk didn't deserve the MVP' haters.Please, I am begging you...Let me just start by applauding Deron Williams of the Utah Jazz because he was truly the reason that the Jazz were even in the game at the end, but Dirk just one up'd him. Dirk Nowitzki showed great poise in the fourth quarter of the Mavericks' 97-94 victory tonight combining with Jason Terry to score 25 of the team's 30 fourth quarter points. In this Western Conference any team that wants to advance deep into the playoffs will need to come through in last quarter of the game; some of this week's big games have really proven that true.04/09Phoenix 96, SA 79 - 24-11 Phoenix Sun scoring advantage in the 4th quarter04/06Dallas 105, Phoenix 98 - 27-9 Dallas Maverick scoring advantage in the 4th quarterDid I mention the actual playoffs haven't even started yet?This year's Western Conference playoffs will be the fiercest in a long time, maybe ever. Wouldn't it be some...

Down Goes Dirk: Nowitzki Out for At Least 2 Weeks
2008-03-24 23:48:00 I know this isn't really a Lakers update, but I thought all you Mavs haters (that are just like me) would like to know that Dirk Nowitzki is out for the foreseeable future.Hell yeah! First of all, I can't stand that German puss, he has got to be the softest 7 footer in NBA history. Whining after seemingly every shot, flopping on every drive to the basket because he has no clue how to finish, the guy is just a sack and the biggest fluke to win the MVP award, EVER!Well, since I got to vent a little bit, here are the facts. If you didn't see the Duesch bag Dirk go down hard yesterday against the San Antonio Spurs, I suggest you go on youtube and check it out because it was kinda nasty, no, not Shaun Livingston nasty (nothing will ever top that), but pretty nasty.Well right after the game, the most outrageous owner in NBA history Mark Cuban, made a statement that Dirk will probably only be out for 2 weeks (sounds like BS to me) with a high ankle sprain and tweaked knee.Here is my pre...

Dirk Nowitzki Out 2 Weeks With “Lower Left Leg Injury”
2008-03-24 01:14:00 Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban will have to throw more money at the problem next year because the team’s fading 2008 championship hopes went down with Dirk Nowitzki on Sunday. Dirk is expected to miss two weeks with what is being called a lower left leg injury.. In layman’s terms that means season killing injury. Don’t get it twisted. The Mavs weren’t gonna sniff the title this year but they were gonna make the playoffs. They’re currently in the seventh spot in the Western Conference with Golden St. a game back and the Nuggets trailing by two. If the Denver Nuggets have any balls, two weeks without Dirk Nowitzki is the final nail in the Maverick’s playoff coffin. Knowing the Nuggs like we do, they’ll make it interesting. It could be for any number of reasons, but it seems the basketball gods aren’t happy with Mark Cuban. They waited until Steve Nash left Dallas to let him turn into the player he is today. They took a 2-0 finals lead...

STEVE NASH NOT ON DIRK NOWITZKI?S X-MAS LIST
2007-12-22 06:54:00 The phrase “cancel Christmas” is just that, a phrase. It seems Dirk Nowitzki is taking it to heart after last season’s embarrassing first round playoff exit. He’s not buying anybody, including Steve Nash, a Christmas gift.. Not even a Dirk doll.. Talk about bah humbug. If Dirk Nowitzki or Baron Davis pulled your name ...

Dirk Nowitzki
2007-05-16 09:11:00 Hoy se ha hecho pública la votación del MVP de la NBA, y como veis en la foto ha ganado Dirk Nowitzki (el primer europeo en conseguirlo). La verdad es que es un gran jugador muy completo, un gran tirador que mide 2,13 m. Me recuerda a otro MVP salvando las distancias claro. Segundo ha quedado Steve Nash y tercero Kobe Bryant. El 10
It?s official, Dirk Nowitzki is the 2007 NBA MVP. Will this go down as one
2007-05-16 05:02:00 Dirk Nowitzki has been announced 2007 NBA MVP after coming up short against the Golden State Warriors in this year’s playoffs. Dirk has no doubt been the best player on his team during their 67 win stretch to the first team in a minute to challenge the Chicago Bulls 72 win record. He beats out Steve ...
Does Dirk Nowitzki Deserve the MVP?
2007-05-16 04:32:00 Hell no! Dirk Nowitzki is an awesome NBA player, an extremely good shooter and scorer, but this year's MVP, no way. The man was the very definition of the word "CHOKE" in the playoffs and maybe for a long time down the road, until the dust settles from getting rocked by the Golden State Warriors. It comes down to this: Would MVP Michael Jordan have crumbled like that? HELL NO! Did you ever see MVP Magic Johnson give up and start making excuses? HELL NO! Or even two MVP Steve Nash, could you see him not giving it his all? HELL NO! Now those are real MVPs who never give up or let another team get the best of them, they have a fire that never burns out, because they refuse to accept not trying. That's passion, that's a competitor, that's an MVP!If you look at all the MVPs of the past, you will see that trend of competitive spirit to win and a lot of championships. Tim Duncan, two championships, Shaq, three championships, Larry Bird, title after title, and others that never got a ch...

The 2007 M.V.B.N.R.B.H.W.I.T.R.S.P. Award --
2007-05-11 17:15:00 Most Valuable But Not Really But He Was In The Regular Season PlayerThere has always been a debate on who the MVP should be awarded to. Should it go to the best player in the league, regardless of his team's record, or should it go to the best player on a good team? These questions are always dissected before the award is given out, and the answers are almost always ridiculed once the MVP has been awarded. This isn't a debate that just goes on in baseball, or basketball, but in every team sport. This year is no different as it is widely believed that Dirk Nowitzki will win the award in a landslide, mostly because he led the Mavericks to a 67 win season. However, it's Dirk's recent playoff meltdowns against the Heat and Warriors respectively, where he has shown a lack of leadership, poor attitude, and has been unable to sink the important shot, that has made the MVP debate this season a hotter topic than usual.For the last two seasons, Steve Nash has won the crown in decisions th...

What in the World... [David Stefanini]
2007-04-28 05:46:00 What is happening in Golden State right now? The Dallas Mavericks look like a helpless 8 seed against a much more talented Warriors team. Everything is going right for the Golden State Warriors. Watching this game J. Mark English and myself, were saying how the Warriors have no fear of the Mavs, and are controlling the tempo of the game. An 8th seeded team should not dictate the tempo to a 1 seed in a playoff game. But that is exactly what is happening.Also, Baron Davis his having the game and series of his life. Nobody on the Mavs can stop him. He looks like the best player on the court and to be honest, he very well may be. If he stays healthy the Warriors can be good; very good for a long time.One final thought on the first half:Where in the world is Dirk Nowitzki? Every time he gets the ball he looks lost, and his odds of winning the MVP fall lower and lower. I know playoff performance doesn't count for the MVP voting, but we all know the voters are watching these games.Dirk if...
