2k ratings are beyond disrespectful, lmao. I'm not saying the man was in his prime, but he averaged 26/8/2 on 48/36/89 in 2009 (should affect 2k10) and in 2010 he averaged 25/8/3/1/1 on 48/42/91, and in both seasons he played 81 games and led his team to 50 win seasons, 50-32 (2009) and 55-27 (2010)... I don't understand how he was an 83 and 85... not to mention he would lead the Mavericks to one of the greatest championships in 2011... I don't understand 2k... the man was great even in the early 2010s.
2k's overall rating back in those days were weighted differently. If you were a PF or C (basically a big man) stats like low post defense, rebounds, blocks, close shots, and so forth increases your overall rating more compared to Dirk who had extremely high shooting stats. If you go back and edit Dirk's overalls with max shooting/scoring attributes without changing anything else, I think the highest Dirk would have been in game was an 85 or maybe 86 overall if I remember correctly. It's why players like Zach Randolph had higher overalls than Dirk even though Dirk played better in the game when you used him. Same with players like Westbrook who had higher rebounding stats as a PG, but that doesn't really increase his overall by much compared to increasing his ball handling or passing rating. It wasn't until 2k15 that archetypes or play styles were implemented hence why Dirk jumped up to an 88 as a faceup or inside-out scoring big man.
@@501jaylee I'd say so, since if you ask a random person what they know about Michael Jordan they'll probably just tell you he dunks a lot, but if you ask a person about Dirk the more than likely know about his fade away.
Man Dirk used to be so OP in 2k but nowadays if you have a slower jump shot and the defender is within 5 feet from you apparently your hof talent goes out the window
I like 2K8 and 2K9 animations, for example the Point Guard using his hand for the playbook calls and running a bit slower and the players reaction after hitting a shot
Thank you so much for the gift but I am ok you can give it to someone else what would mean the world to me is a shout out I would do anything. Thank you so much I love your content
Idk why but I kinda like the old 2ks around 12 when not every star had to be a 90+ and people in low 80s were still really good. nowadays you use a low 80 they can iso or make a single whot
In a time with Kobe, Shaq, Carter, Mcgrady etc. AI was the 2k cover player for like 4 straight years. If this doesn't tell you how great he was nothing else can.
@@user-kv5yh4er5p I would say that a lot of people who are interested in Basketball in Germany, have at least some symphaty for the Mavericks. Dirk was the key, why Basketball got so popular the last decade in Germany.
I have been Mavs fan since the day I saw him raining 3's! Dirk, Steve Nash and Micheal Finley!? Killed on 2K. And respectfully it was Larry Bird's Fadeaway before Dirk.
Them ratings would be criminal if social media was around at the time. An 83 and 84 back to back times when he was one of the best players in the league
This TH-camr is a legend! Keep doing what ur doin man. You should have 5x as many subs as u have. Ur videos are amazing. It would make my day if he hearted this comment
3 point shot with bryant in every nba 2k or lay up with lebron james in every 2k game or maybe blocking with shaq in every 2k i think smequle wont see this but its ok
Dirk might be the only player in 2K history where his rating was completely wrong almost every game.
He should have been at least a 90 in 2k11
@@idipped2521 In 2k12 too.
At least they gave him the 97 post fade regardless of his overall rating
He went from a 69 to an 84 in one season just shows how 2K has never really gotten their ratings accurate
69 lol

Yea thats hella disrespectful. I was thinking at least between 88-91 rating for most of his career
Man won an MVP and still had a rookie rating lol
At least we get to create our own rosters.
Maybe his defensive rating lowered his overall a lot 😅

Dirks 1 leg fadeaway is just one of the most iconic signature moves
You think his fadeaway is more iconic than Jordan’s?

@@TheMylk fair enough, I feel like to the average person though they may not even know about Dirk or even what he plays like tbh
Fun fact: Dirk was the second to last player from the original 2K Game to still be on an active roster and the last one to play for the same team. ;)
First was Vince Carter
@@s.m.i.c.h.e.l Yeah, that’s why is said Dirk was the SECOND TO LAST. Vince Carter was the LAST.

Legend! 😤😤😤
That post fade is unstoppable. It was great to see him, Tim Duncan and Kevin Garnett use that on the post
Dude, I broke down laughing when you said, " Dirk is a 69 overall, a perfect way to start the game".
Broken Humor
Not even that funny 💀
2022 humor be like
@@noahsparklingeyes8781 69 AHHAHAHAHA
nigga u corny asf💀💀
The gameplay difference between 2K7 to 2K8 is jaw dropping. From playing with pixels to playing with actual people and specific animations
1:37 the fact he got blocked like 5 times and then gets a back court violation 😂
back quart
@@zachiswayposi1 oops
Dirk is my favorite player of all time, it's just crazy how 2K disrespected him by making his rating go down so fast!
He: puts sliders on
Also him:” how would they know”
Does he really have sliders on?
@@Klipp.vsp123 bro he sucks ass at 2k u can tell, he plays pro and puts sliders and still misses alot
The way Dirk played in real life in the 2011 run was by far to me his most unstoppable play I seen!
Then you haven't seen much basketball. Geez.
@@gregshirley-jeffersonboule6258 ok. So tell me what year do you think Dirk played his best years? I’m confused here ?
In the playoffs..
Allen Iverson was the cover of 4 2ks back to back wow
I like 2K8 and 2K9 animations, for example the Point Guard using his hand for the playbook calls and running a bit slower and the players reaction after hitting a shot
The young cubs will never understand how blown away we were with Dreamcast visuals in 1998.
i made $300 a week and spent my whole check one friday getting that system and nfl2k and good ol boxing game forgot the name
I really appreciate this guys content recently I always have fun watching him
Yeah really makes sense how dirk is an 85 in 2011 when he beat a team singlehanded that had prob 3 players higher than him
I miss when i play NBA 2K10 to 2K19 when Dwyane Wade, Dirk Nowitzki is still part of current team
Keep your circle small.. Be careful who you trust. Keep grinding.Big things are coming soon in your life. You just gotta keep working🤞🏽💪🏽
Do hitting a full court shot with Ben Simmons in every 2k
I love the video keep the good work up I been watching for ever

I recently got laid off. This video gave me 6 minute of pure joy and smiles. Thank you!
Damn, sorry dude. Hope you find another job, just gotta keep up the hustle
5:21... Did I just saw Teague with the ''All-Star'' logo? Yikes 🤣
i love when you upload
Do hitting a post hook with Kareem in every 2k
man i love dirk
unstoppable
Fire Content. Dirk is Gold. Thank You!
In a time with Kobe, Shaq, Carter, Mcgrady etc. AI was the 2k cover player for like 4 straight years. If this doesn't tell you how great he was nothing else can.
Nobody cares about 2K before. It was all about NBA Live.
LMAO 2k was shit in the 2000
Nba live was the best one to go
AI is shit the only reason he went to the finals cause the EAST was weak as fack
From 2000-2004 AI may have not be the absolute best, but he damn sure was the coolest.
My favorite player of all time Dirk Nowitzki.

Next you should do a 3pt shot with every center on every nba ream
That thumbnail 💀
Still love 2k8 - so good and such a leap from the prior year
AI on 5 2k covers straight tho🔥
Sky Hook with Kareem on every 2k possible!!!
how?
Stupid
New challenge:
Try scoring with every finals mvp
You should recreate the best Buzzer beaters
2k12 and 13, his fadeaway was unstoppable
my guy smequle! never misses. all love brother. ❤🤘🏾
The fact that he won a ring vs bosh wade and lebron at his year in 2k rating being 83!!!!
Best nba finals performance ever idc
I used to use the Mavs online in 2k16 and only shoot with Dirk because the fade was unstoppable
I have been Mavs fan since the day I saw him raining 3's! Dirk, Steve Nash and Micheal Finley!? Killed on 2K.
And respectfully it was Larry Bird's Fadeaway before Dirk.
Video idea: Michael Jordan, Shaq, and Curry combined? Shamiph O'Jorry
2 video ideas dunking with the best player on ever team and shooting a three with every team best player
Do a poster dunk in every 2k with Vince Carter
6:00 nice Benjamin coverage
Mavs fan here and I loved the vid seeing my favorite player in his prime on video games is nostalgia
Them ratings would be criminal if social media was around at the time. An 83 and 84 back to back times when he was one of the best players in the league
You’re SLEEPING On MY MUSIC. WAKE UP 😴👀☄️💞
the most undervalued player in history
I remember when you were able to make jump shots in the early 2k games
brian grant with all those blocks tho what a beast
You should do a mid range shot with Tim Duncan in every 2k
AI was so popular back then that he was on 2k cover for 5 straight years
I use to run with Mavs on PS2 lol that’s when I first went online and that’s when everything about gaming changed
I wish Brian grant played D like that when he was on the lakers
3:45 “Chrish Bosh”
Love the vids
Thank you!
You should've done each shoulder.
Fun video though
2k7 DIRK!! Used to suck in association mode cause you couldn’t resign him and I was to young to understand cap rules lol
Dirk's fro in 2k14 is amazing
Do d-wade next. He is legendary!!! Please do it.
You should dunk with Vince Carter in every 2K!
all this made me think of is, how the whole court would shake sometimes in 2k8 when you made a big dunk lmao what an odd thing to add
Your the best 2k TH-camr
2k needa bring back the 2k15-16 scoreboard fr
AI was really the cover like 4 years in a row 🤣🤣 that’s tuff
My favorite PF 🙏🏾
This TH-camr is a legend! Keep doing what ur doin man. You should have 5x as many subs as u have. Ur videos are amazing. It would make my day if he hearted this comment

2k8 had some good shading
0:08 nice.
Do scoring a bucket with every teams best player NBA2K22
That 2K18 picture is the reason why 2K18 is the Greatest 2K game of All Time All of the players were realistic.
Was there nobody else to put on the cover of 2k series besides iverson when 2k first came out 😂
With all the videos you've put out i'm amazed how you still cant get the controls down for each game
AI was the face of 2k for 4 straight years lol
I rmb when I was playing 2k16 with my fd and I was spamming Dirk's fadeaway, he never missed
3 point shot with bryant in every nba 2k or lay up with lebron james in every 2k game or maybe blocking with shaq in every 2k i think smequle wont see this but its ok
U r my favorite TH-camr thank u for the best content
Glad you enjoy it!
i appreciate you not making this an hour long video lol
signature move 🏀
Jelly layup with kyrie every 2k
Not sure if you did this but you should do scoring with every finales mvp in every nba 2k
To see the actual animation I think you gotta be on the left side fading baseline
2k18 said he was 44. He’s 44 now 😂😂
do every block with yao ming
You should do getting a spectacular dunk with Vince Carter in every 2k if you haven’t
dunking with shaq in every 2k
Can you do scoring with 1 overall pick at every nba2k
Why does dirk look like shaggy in the thumbnail
From 69 to a 84..damn
I mean the guy owns the zone the past 25years. There was 7 spots(KG took the one corner)and he got 6 of them.
Shooting with Dwyane Wade on every 2k
Dirk is like a post-mid-range god throughout his career.
Video idea: put the goat by every team on the same team
Do Bank Shot with Tim Duncan!
