I could ask Kahn to make a stop in Frankfurt when he's discussing Rubio's future?

Foye,

You from Minnesota or what made you become a wolves fan I'm just curious?

Thought most Germans would hop on the dallas wagon.

Cool that you are a wolves fan though.

No, I'm German.

I had some basketball game for Nintendo 64 (don't know how it was called) and always used to play the wolves in my childhood lol.

Dunno why I picked the wolves. Guess I just liked their logo. :lol:
I like Dirk Nowitzki but although he's from Germany I never liked him as much as I liked KG in his Wolves days. Actually, I still like KG a lot although he's been a bit of a douche bag in Boston sometimes.

My other favourite team were the Milwaukee Bucks (just) bc of Ray Allen and after that the Sonics (bc he changed teams). But I lost track of the not-Sonics after they traded him and went to OKC.

sounds awfully similar to my story of how I became a Wolves fan. I started playing with KG back in 2000 when NBA Live 2000 was teh shizz and I got hung up on him and the Wolves.

back in the early 00's I disliked Dirk alot due to the massive media coverage he got. some basketball magazines proclaimed to be better than KG and it really pissed me off. anyway, ever since the Mavs got rid of Nellie and Nash, I've grown to like them just because of Dirk. Dirk is da man. he's probably my favorite non-wolf, right next to KG and Tim Duncan.

I used to like Dirk a ton.

However in the past 2 years I've seen Dallas at the Target Center....

and I swear....all this dude does is complain/whine all game long to officials, he seems to think he should get every call, it really got annoying watching it. Then I even saw him trash talk and get into it with 5"11 jonny flynn.

I think he's a rock star player, and a future HOF'r, but I've lost respect for him as a player, because he seems to have bought into his status, and acts like a cry baby out there a lot. This is no knock on his game at all, i think he's a stud. Just an observation.

if you knew how much he gets hit and hacked each and every position while getting no calls I can see why he's getting pissed so often. also Dirk is a very very humble person off the court. on the court he's on fire. usually if you piss him off he's going to kill you. how many games he's won for Germany that way I can't recall. there are way too many.

He may be a great dude, I dont know him. Just an observation I made watching him live. He seemed like a real cry baby out there, was off putting.

Dirk is a whiney b-word on the court. Hell of a ball player, but a complete b-word to the officials, opponents, and opposing fans.

Well, but I must advise to you that I have a good memory and Iggy is a excellent wing playing in a trashy team. His play, age and skills are perfect for minnie.

I got your number !! :lol:
