Dirk Nowitzki and Dwyane Wade's rivalry became beef thanks to fouls, mean quotes, and fake coughing

- Dirk Nowitzki and Dwyane Wade developed a rivalry over the course of two NBA Finals matchups in 2006 and 2011. Rivalry alone doesn't constitute beef. But when you add in some notorious foul calls, some unusually spicy ad-hominem attacks, and one strange bout of fake coughing ... THAT is beef.

I swear Shaq makes at least a cameo appearance in every single beef video past the 80s
Well, he is a very large man.
He be stirrin beef stew 😂😂😂
Lol
Wasn't he somehow linked (as in teammates with) at least one NBA champion (EDIT: finalist) since 1984? I forget when... or if... That streak ended. Guessing when the Bucks won, if it has actually ended.
Shaq needs a lot of beef to feed his hunger 😂.
It was poetic justice when Dirk won that Championship after Lebron and Wade mocked him lol
Wade got more rings in less time 😂 poetic justice.

Dirks entire 2011 playoff run was truly something to behold. Clutch play after clutch play. Haven’t seen anything like it since
Kawhi on the raptors run
@@richiehughes8791 fair comparison up until the finals; as much kawhi's 2019 playoff run was incredible the finals performance is kinda sullied by the warriors' injuries, whereas dirk went through hella competition in each round and pretty much no injuries involved to hold against it
@@ILOV3BUTT3R still a great run nobody is beating that warriors super team fully healthy wtf 🤣
I did say Durant being injuried evened things out
I think you could also include Curry's 2022 run with Dirk's. Steph was easily the best player in every series, and what he did in game 4 of the finals was an all-time performance. The parallels between Dirk and Steph's runs from 2011 and 2022 actually fit well I think. I still think Dirk's 2011 chip is the toughest of all time. Dude was incredible.
@@danmcmurray7111True but Dirk beat the KD/Westbrook/Harden Thunder, the defending championship Kobe Lakers, and the Big 3 in Miami.
Truly the hardest road, and the most improbable Finals of all time.
“As always Mark Cuban was the loudest person involved.” Truer words have never been spoken.
After 06 he knew when to speak and when not to.🤣
And as always, he's wholly the reason they've never been able to put talent around the Mavs star.
@@gwarfanatik I don't think he's saying they didn't have successful seasons, he's just mentioning how the Mavs have seemingly made it a tradition to whiff on big name free agents. But, to your other point, I really hope Luka is enough of an incentive to get at least one other superstar to the Mavs. It's absolutely not sustainable for him to drop 30 or 40 or 50 and still barely come out with a win almost every game
@@ranoutofcharact nuts.
Nash, Finley, LaFrentz, Antoine, Antawn, Van Exel, Josh, Marquis, Devin, JJ, Jet, Matrix, Tyson, Kidd.
To this day I think the NBA penalized Mark Cuban for constantly criticizing the league and its officiating. One of two series I definitely think were rigged. Or if not rigged ... tilted one way. Those calls for Wade in 06 were ridiculous by any standard. And no skin in the game: Illinois born and bred and I'm a Bulls fan.
Dirk literally beat a super team without no legit number 2 co-star. Ok, he had a solid supporting cast with Terry, Tyson Chandler anchoring the defense and what was left of Jason Kidd running the point, but Dirk as a lone superstar, had arguably the greatest playoff run to a championship in NBA history.
Plus the 2nd leading scorer on that Mavs team, Caron Butler, was injured
Dirk is an all time great in fact he’d be the greatest power foward ever if he ever had a great co star Steve nash will always be a what if now
@@eriklakeland3857 which is why I call BS when people love wanting to put asterisks on a championship......Dallas literally lost their second best and younger scorer and still won it all... Especially when hear a GSW fan cry....
@Erik Sutton because that bs looked scripted how tf lebron becomes passive in the finals
It's like kawhi w the raptors
Dirk torching the Heat after the sick jokes walked so Luka torching the Suns after the “Luka special” jokes could run

Luka is never winning a ring in his stat padding career

Reggie is so good at stirring the pot lol
No he didn't?! ... but he did.

That 2011 Finals is one of my favorite ones to go back and watch. Amazing what Dirk did that year. Very chilling once the final buzzer sounded, he got over the scores table and went to the tunnel to have his personal moment knowing his life was never going to be the same ever again and how it wasnt necessary to share a “sportsmanship encounter” with James and Wade.
My favorite chips in the modern era? Dirk's 2011 chip and Spurs' 2014 chip. Both wanted revenge....at the expense of LBJ and Wade, ironically.
probably the greatest david vs goliath finals ever. if you're a fan of underdogs beating up on bullies, the '11 finals is your jam.
As a Lebron fan I actually don’t think Lebron is the player he is today with the legacy he has if 2011 didn’t happen. I’ve always liked Dirk and I’m glad he was able to get that ring even if he got it against Wade and Bron.
You knew after 06 and 07 everyone knew 2011 was his year
Where can you even watch em? Probably have to buy the NBA channel or something
I don't think a lot of people even know how real this beef actually was. I still remember how intense a lot of the regular season games between the Mavs and Heat were, and even with LeBron being there, it was usually Wade who stepped up for the Heat in those games (not all the time, but it was a regular thing).
I sure didn't until I watched this. I'm a pretty casual BB fan but I knew '11 was a rematch because I make sure to catch the playoffs every year. Now I understand the fire Dirk played with in that series so much better.
The Mavs were my 3rd favorite team-that was still enough to make me hate the Heat, from 2006 to today!
Unfortunately for LeBron, the beef cost him a ring. It's because of this beef he gave Wade control and took a back seat
Was? They still don't like each other
@@jsarge6136you may be sped did u not watch the video their completey fine😭

@@seanlin3450same, I thought it was just some little rivalry

Right
When Nowitzki beat the LeBron, Wade and Bosh-led Heat in their prime in the 2011 NBA Finals with injuries, fever and no other stars, it was a real treat.
The 2010-2011 season's Mavs championship ring value is one of the best in history.

Dirk's ring in 2011 was the most meaningful NBA championship run in the 21st century. He got the last laugh over the superteam Heat after losing in 2006.

It was awesomeness 👌 💩 on lebron and wade mouth 😆
Still the greatest 3-game destruction in Finals history. The Heat pissed off the wrong shooter.
The Heat pissed off the wrong shooter.😤🙌🤣😁🙋♂✌🙌
I dont know, games 4-6 last season with the Dubs against Boston was pretty epic
Hey don’t forget Dwayne wades excellence in games 3-6 in the 2006 finals either
Look up 2016 finals buddy
It's up there with Cavs-Warriors 2016. I might be in the minority as a Heat fan, but for me, 2014 felt far worse. I can feel happy for Dirk & company earning their ring in a hard-fought series, but the Heat getting completely annihilated by the Spurs in the last three games of the 2014 Finals was such a bitter end to the greatest era in franchise history. But so it goes in sports
Dirk’s dagger from the left baseline in Game 6 of the 2011 Finals is still one of the coldest things I have ever seen. His second half in that game is still one of the most clutch performances in the history of sports.
Nothing was stopping Dirk in 2011 from getting his ring. That man was in God Mode all throughout those playoffs
Watching the Mavs crush the Lakers in the 2011 was heartbreaking.
But it was really nice seeing Dirk and Kidd finally win a ring.
As a Lakers fan on 2011, the Mavs deserve 2 NBA rings for the 2011 NBA season. Dirk did something what Jordan never did and that is win an NBA championship as the only all star in that squad and without your 2nd best scorer in the NBA Finals who had to face a super team in their primes.
maybe for you I'm still mad about that
@@cjvaye99 You should be mad and EMBARRASSED rightly so especially since Lebron and Wade asked for it and received it with their mocking. 2 rings for Dirk.
Growing up a mavs fan the calls in that 06 championship still cut. Watching Dirk lead the charge to come back in 2011 was one of my favorite sports moments tbh.
im neither a mav nor a heat fan, got no dog in the race, but mavs routienly got the short end fo the david stern stick. at that time with bron, miami was the new lakers, and stern wanted his mtv! but by the grace of dirk stern was thwarted

Dirk will always b my hero. Can't ask for a better role model. Taught me unyielding loyalty, perseverance and dedication. My man 💪
I’ve met and chatted with Dirk and have always heard of how thoughtful and sensitive he was about his career. There’s a reason Dallas loves Dirk, they named a street fro him and erected a huge statue for him.
That 2011 Championship goes down as a Top 5 Championship run of all time. Sure, Miami and Wade have 3, but that one of Dirk’s will always be remembered as such, greatness.
Me being a Heat fan, I must say I have the utmost respect for Dirk. I thought we were going to run through the Mavs in 2011. Damn was I wrong. Mocking Dirk didn’t work out at all.
I dunno why but I knew even as a teenager that Dirk was going to beat us. Wish we coulda three-peated but nothing but respect for Dirk.
@@The_J0ker29 well I wish I had your insight about that series. Because I thought there is no way Dallas is going to beat us. The thought never crossed my mind. I figured it would be 4-2 Miami. And it went the opposite direction
@@clarencebell1101 I think it was mostly because Lebron wasn't playing so hot. Pierce gave him fits in the ECSF. Meanwhile, Dirk was red hot. Just one of those things you had to see to believe.
For the record, I knew we were going to win multiple rings with him, I just had feeling, after eyeballing it, that that wasn't the year.
Did you know the 2011 Mavericks are the only championship team in NBA history to have 5 past-present-or-future All NBA Players on their roster? Dirk, Kidd, Marion, Chandler, Peja... Not to mention Jet was a 6th Man award winner in 2009.
Only two other championship teams have ever even had 4 past-present-or-future All NBA players on their team.
1. The Celtics of the 80s with Bird, McHale, Parish and Johnson. 15 total combined All NBA selections.
2. The 2011-12 Miami Heat with James, Bosh, Wade, and Allen. 30 total combined All NBA selections (19 are LeBron's)
3. The 2010-11 Dallas Mavericks with Dirk, Kidd, Marion, Chandler, and Peja. 22 total combined All NBA selections.
That comeback in game 2 of the 2011 Finals was one of the greatest in NBA history. I go back every once and a while and watch that game and I still get chills. Dirk is top 5 PF easily 😎.
Top 2 PF
Dirk is great but top 5 is quite a bit of a stretch in my opinion. Duncan, Malone, Barkley, McHale, Garnett, Giannis...
@@remusmalone9563 no lmao giannis kg tim left to right order
Top 2 behind Duncan. And yes better than KG
@@Zamppa86 Dirk scored twice as many points, 4 times as many assists, more rebounds, 5k three pointers vs. 150. He's literally better in every possible way than McHale. and before you cite championships, that is a team accomplishment.
If you're a Mavs fan, you remember every part of this beef. Probably the same if you're a Heat fan. I'm not sure the average hoops fan did, but this was a cool video to back & recount the memories. Didn't know Wade had the Finals record for Free Throw attempts, but it makes sense. You still can't convince me the Mavs weren't cheated in '06. That was David Stern retaliating against Mark Cuban for being so public about NBA officiating in the early 2000s.
Damn you hit it right on head. I forgot Cuban was criticizing David Stern and the officiating. In 06 series I was in awe on how much calls Miami was getting. Thanks for bringing this up bro
This was also before the Donahy scandal broke.
They screwed the Mavs over royally.
Cuban hired an investigator to look into the 06 Finals, and was told there were grounds for a lawsuit. He ultimately decided against it knowing it could destroy the league.
Anyone who lived in Dallas can tell you Dwayne Wade was one of the most hated men in the D. This rivalry might not have gotten a lot of national attention, but it was very real out here
This is satisfying professional beef. Two legendary competitors who just so happened to get in each other’s way. Nothing too personal or out of bounds. The closest thing was the mocking Dirk’s illness but even that was fairly tame goofing around. Both sides come out looking good in the end.
Man that 2011 Mavericks champion win is not just an asterisk over Wade... My man Drik played his heart's out during that series ❤️.
#respect
Yeah easy to say that when the Mavericks have a Mickey Mouse ring
@@rileykazama3145 you misspelled 06 Heat dumb ass!!!
Asterisk to wade? Wade was the best player that series
I loved that 2011 team. A classic tale of old timers who suffered numerous heartbreaks & setbacks, now in their waning years, banding together to shoot their last shot at glory...and pulling it off in the most shocking way! Dirk was on a mission that season, eliminating teams they had no business beating.
Was rooting for Miami in '06 and Dallas in '11 (but more of a Mavs fan). nice to see vets finally win a ring, Mourning, Payton, Dirk, Kidd, Terry, etc etc..

Man, I was a new basketball fan in the early 2000's, and the 2006 Finals were one the first that really hooked me. By the end of that thing, I was desperately rooting for the Mavericks, if only because it started feeling rigged with all the free throws!
Seriously, watching those games start to finish, it felt like all Wade had to do was throw himself in the lane & he'd get 2 shots. It was maddening! I've never seen anything so frustrating, and I can only imagine how it felt being on the court & wondering "wtf am I supposed to do then?!"
Every time someone has this take which is basically every mavs fan ever I cringe. If you actually watched that series like you say you'd know the mavs were beating wade up almost every drive to the rim. Atleast 95% of the foul calls were obviously fouls. If you actually watch the games and look at the plays instead of the numbers, you'd see he should have gotten those fouls. the mavs could not defend wade straight up and so they fouled him on almost every drive.
@@Rageinggames1 BS. The Mavs blew out the Heat in the first two games. And then magically, every foul gets called whenever Wade touches the ball. He broke the record for FTs attempted ever in a playoff series despite not even needing a 7th game.
@@Airmaster167 Stay In Front of Him is that simple Mavs simply couldn't do that
Stern was manipulating games with the refs
@@Rageinggames1 im being generous and saying at least half of these calls were soft for the 2006 playoff basketball period.
The Mavs Heat finals was one of the few times there was a clear "Good guys vs bad guys" scenario.
Everyone outside of Miami wanted to see the super team lose. Dirk not only got his revenge and title, he did it with almost everyone rooting for him.
Undoubtedly, one of the best underdog stories ever. Dallas 2011 championship run was the first time ive watched playoffs when i was a kid. Dirk def deserves the ring.
what did he do after? right, got swept
@@theonlygoodonehere2259 Big 3 in boston couldn't even get 2. And that is way worse lmao
@@stkrd1467 simple the big 3 guys in Boston simply got older
@@stkrd1467 dirk still got swept
@@theonlygoodonehere2259 doesn't change the fact that Dirk lives in your head rent freeee lmaoo. Paul Pierce couldn't get pass Lebron without KG and Allen and in the end resulted in him ring chasing on another team that still couldn't get past Lebron. Now go back to your mom's basement troll and continue being a keyboard warrior
Since they didn’t cover it here, 2007 was injury plagued for the heat and while they got mostly healthy for the playoffs, were swept by the Bulls. Missed the playoffs in 08 because Wade got injured, Shaq traded away. 2009 and 2010 for the heat was just Wade on his own getting the team to a lower seed while playing great. Lost in 7 to the hawks then swept by Boston.
2011 Dirk playoff run is by far one of the most dominate playoff runs in any sport. Dude was unstoppable in every series.
Watching a finals with a dude taking 25 free throws is just Insane.
I’ve been waiting for this one for a while. The real ones know LeBron was only a side character in this arc
And then over the next decade he became far and away the best player ever, so Dirk and Wade can have their 1 great postseason each
@@GIGAFAT3
You’re delusional
Wade and Lebron and Dirk are all HoF, no hate to none
Time makes friends of them
@@kashteller7466 why haven't you been watching basketball?
That Mavs run will forever be the greatest thing I’ve ever witnessed in sports. Dirk was one of the most dominant forces ever and he was past his prime.
Calls Wade was getting in 2006 was insane, literally anyone coming close to him at all, I used to joke with my dad calling fouls before they even happen, never seen anything like that before.
Exactly. And I believe there were at least two games in that series where Dwyane Wade had more free throws by himself than the Dallas Mavericks had as an entire team
They were trying to build him up so bad that finals. Calls not even MJ or Kobe got.
It was soooo bad that it made me dislike Wade! There were so many calls where no one even touched him.

Another excellent video, as always, by Secret Base. This Beef History video featuring Dwyane Wade vs. Dirk Nowitzki was very entertaining and interesting.
These are two great players that both won a lot and are great guys. I can understand both sides of this beef and I am glad it's behind them now - most likely because Dirk eventually won those 2011 finals, against Wade (that cough thing was really uncalled for). Imagine Dirk never winning a championship because of what happened in 2006, that would have been tragic.

It says a lot about Dirk that all the comments here (at least those that I managed to read!) are centered around him...one of a kind player but more importantly a class act who was humble and stayed loyal to Dallas even though he had every excuse to leave..his one championship is worth 10 of those won by superteams
lol keep telling yourself that
love this stuff
Bro you missed his performance in game 2 and the whole 15 point comback , one of the best ever in finals history
As a German kid, when I grew up and played BB Dirk was like this mysterious legend. That there is this tall, lanky, german guy who is playing in the NBA. Playing with the giants of BB in America. Taller than any of us and an exceptional shooter. We never saw any games because the YT wasn't a thing. There was no local club we could go to and the only thing on TV was soccar. Just pictures and posters in magazines and from that we tried to mimic the fade away. The only time we saw him on TV was for an AD for a specific german bank, which was funny because at this time only we as BB kids knew who he was. But know being able to rewatch everything what I missed of this mans career is like a wonder to me. Glad BB found me.
I am a simple man. I see Dirk I hit Like.

Did you know the 2011 Mavericks are the only championship team in NBA history to have 5 past-present-or-future All NBA Players on their roster? Dirk, Kidd, Marion, Chandler, Peja... Not to mention Jet was a 6th Man award winner in 2009.
Only two other championship teams have ever even had 4 past-present-or-future All NBA players on their team.
1. The Celtics of the 80s with Bird, McHale, Parish and Johnson. 15 total combined All NBA selections.
2. The 2011-12 Miami Heat with James, Bosh, Wade, and Allen. 30 total combined All NBA selections (19 are LeBron's)
3. The 2010-11 Dallas Mavericks with Dirk, Kidd, Marion, Chandler, and Peja. 22 total combined All NBA selections.
That heat and mavericks rivalry from the mid 2000's to the early 2010's was always felt.
Facts! I couldn't stand seeing those Heat colors!

Love the beef history videos. Some future videos people may want to see could be an in-depth Kobe and Shaw beef, Jordan and the Pistons/Isaiah Thomas maybe Bird/Magic
kobe and shaw beef is actually boring. How about Bird vs Jordan? Have they done that one before? How about Kobe vs Utah Jazz? USA vs Mexico in soccer? Or how about Argentina vs Brazil in soccer?
I did not know this...cray. Thanks to Seth and all of Secret Base for the illumination.
2011 was the best finals IMO. Dirk IS Dallas. He overcame everything. He didn't abandon ship. Lebron and Wade tried to clown him and got chumped. Was golden watching lil JJ Barea lock up 6'9 Lebron in the clutch lol
Lebron played like he was 5'11 lol
I said it the and I'll say it now. Tyson Chandler was the center piece and the reason Dallas won that championship. What Dallas always lacked was defence. Tyson's defensive play rubbed off on all his teammates, and set a tone. After they let him walk, didn't surprise me it was back to score score score, play no defense and hope we win.
KEEP EM COMING

Oooo looking forward to this one!
Let's be real. Shaq always got away with offensive fouls, and when that wasn't enough, the league gave Wade all kinds of phantom fouls this series. You're vid emphasizes the one at the end of the game, but it was way worse than that. Mavs got robbed like many teams going against marketable superstars get robbed. Wade's comments about leadership probably did steel Dirk's long term resolve. Watching him beat Lebron and Wade was pretty gratifying at the time because of how they conducted themselves in that series
Naw
What? The opposite is true. Shaq was fouled a lot more than what was called for. Lmao.
@@damarideadass8305 yeah, all those times he drove his shoulders and elbows through ppl they really shouldve gotten out of the way lol
Shaq got mauled every time he got the ball, if they called fouls on guys guarding Shaq like they called on everybody else Shaq would be going to the line more than any player in NBA history.
@@CrazyxEnigma yeah, and he'd be hitting 50% of those free throws
Never forget that in a single season Dirk's Mavs beat the Blazers, swept Kobe's Lakers who were looking for a threepeat and beat a Young OKC that had 3 future MVP's to finally get his Ring 🐐
I like these. Keep up the good work

Dirk was then and still is one of my all-time favorite players. There's been a lot of great players who the playoffs made them Legends dirk would still be an all-time great without a ring, but with one and winning the way that 2011 team makes him a lot more revered, i was happy for him when he got that there's certain guys people root for even if he's not on your team and Dirk was one of them..
Anyone who thinks Dwyane Wade got too many calls haven't watched him play in his prime. Dude literally did not care about his body. He was going straight to the paint and taking contact like no one in the league at that time.
Bullshit
@@AR-pp5wf he's right stay mad
As far as degree of difficulty goes, Dirks win is probably the pinnacle. Between his age, health, his island of misfit toys co-stars, AND the crushing narrative of his collapse, it's plainly movie worthy stuff.
Hakeem’s rings are the GOAT ones
Not to mention the gauntlet that the Mavs had to go through. Kobe and Pau as back-to-back champs, Spurs big 3, OKC with their three future MVPs in Durant, Harden, and Westbrook, then Miami with their prime big 3.
@@amplesstratleholm7609 they never beat the spurs, so you lied to basically overrated dirk and the mavs even more, and okc was too young, their only challenge was the finals, and even lebron choked and got outplayed by terry and kidd
@@legendarywiimaster You can't say that when he only go them when Jordan left. Then Jordan came back, and he stopped winning rings?
Dirk got his ring when nobody had them winning anything, and against the huge favorites to win it all & built to become a dynasty.
@@theonlygoodonehere2259 The Spurs weren't around long enough to get beat by the Mavs like in 06 and 09, but Miami was DAL's only challenge? They stomped the 57-win defending champ Lakers. OKC won 55 games that season with KD in his 2nd of 3 consecutive years as the NBA's leading scorer. OKC made the WCFs that season and won the conference the next season, I guess they were like six months too young or something? lol. Did Jason Terry overrate the Mavs too, when he got the Larry O'Brien trophy tattooed on his bicep during the 2010-11 preseason? Everyone knew they were gonna be contenders that year dawg, Chandler was the missing piece they'd desperately been trying to find for about a decade up to that point
Good video!!!
Keep crushing it y'all!
Dirk is a true legend that’s why the Mavs got a statue for him. He made it okay for a big 7 footer to step out shoot 3s and not be in the paint all game. He single handily molded the game for modern 7 footers. People often forget that. Man I wish I could have seen Dirk play in todays NBA his stats would be insane. All respects to KAT but DIRK is the best 7 foot shooter of all time.

Yup KAT, Giannis, Jokic, AD, KD , Embiid
KAT might beat him tho... hes been on fire since COVID year.
Dirk and the 2011 Mavericks probably the NBA's best storyline ever, maybe even in all sports, probably only one that surpasses it would be the 2007 Giants, it's amazing how a supporting cast and star of mostly ringless veterans finally pushed through against all odds to delay the superteam era against "Not 1, Not 2, But 7" team to cap it off
1. fc kaiserslautern 1998. you wont find a better story including the beef between otto rehagel and the bayern frontoffice who released him before kaiserslautern picked him up.
sorry that mavs team and their story is boring compared to that.
This is a good one!
Very good video
Shaq does not get enough credit for Miami's success. The guy shows up and the Heat go from being bums to being contenders. Shaq was the runner up for the regular season MVP award not Dwyane, and Wade only got the finals MVP because the refs gave him every call imaginable
True pluse alonzo
without those free throws he still outscores dirk according to stats, so he really was better than dirk in that finals
@@theonlygoodonehere2259 because you couldn't go near him or it was a foul
@@peldoria bullshi*t, same thing happened in 2011, dwade outplayed dirk series wise again
@@theonlygoodonehere2259 lol no, Dirk wasn't missing in the 2011 playoffs. He caught fire for months
Dirk winning the championship after Dwayne and Lebron mocking and belittling him was the ultimate revenge. Who says Karma isn't real?
As a Wade fan, it was definitely distasteful and was hard for me to want him to win... I bet he'd take that clip back cause Dirk took that personal
And now we got Luka taking out the #1 seed Suns after Devin Booker mocking them. These Euro stars don't mess around 😆
"Beef is not a clean source of energy but it is a good one." *chef's kiss*
Dirk winning his by taking one away from the Miami super team was legendary.
Two true Legends, loved them both. NBA miss players like them today, true champs
I'll never forget Wade and LeBron mocking Dirk for being ill by pretending to caugh and then Dirk going and schooling the Miami super team winning a ring in the process.
Everybody talking tough while they up
wade outplayed dirk in that finals, I guess thunder could have trash talked them all they want, bc they own them, they swept them a year later, and spared the embarrassment
Wade’s 2006 Finals Performance was the best I’ve seen. His 2011 Finals performance was legendary as well! He doesn’t get the credit he should!
I wonder if its media hate, or NBA society hate
