Dirk Nowitzki - Postup Powerhouse (Dirk Fade)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 9 พ.ย. 2018
- Dirk Nowitzki. Once SIXTH on the NBA’s all-time scoring list. 15th in NBA career playoff scoring. NBA champion. NBA Finals MVP. NBA MVP. 13x NBA All Star. 12x All-NBA teamer (4x First team, 5x Second team, 3x Third team). 50-40-90 club member. FIBA World Cup MVP. FIBA Eurobasket MVP. Arguably the greatest European player the league has ever seen. He is THE Dallas Maverick.
The Würzburg wunderkind is one of the best power forwards in NBA history. A 7 footer that can shoot 30 footers was always going to be a dangerous weapon, but he could power in the paint as well. He’s got all the post moves, and his career highlights show his incredible ability to score from just about anywhere on the court, but obviously he has one move that stands alone: some call it a one-legged stepback, but most have dubbed it “the Dirk Fade.” Nowitzki has said that he admired MJ’s signature fadeaway, and adding to it to his repertoire made him more dangerous. He literally gets a leg up on opponents by creating that slight bit of separation necessary to get that silky smooth shot off.
I was originally going to make a video exclusively about his fadeaway, but I figured why not make it a lesson in posting up? The beauty of his shot, the turnaround jumper, and the pump fakes are all effective moves for any player to learn, but they are most dangerous when paired with counter moves. The drop step, the rip through, finishing with both hands; those are all vital components of the German Giant’s bag of tricks. Sure, the fade is LETHAL, but I wanted to showcase what he does in order to set up those moves, or how he counters when those moves are taken away. This video is MOSTLY dirk fades, and turnaround fadeaway, but I sprinkled in a little of his other postup plays as well. Enjoy!

Dirk's fadeaway is probably one of the most unstoppable moves ever
*the most
@@JonMDVisual nah the skyhook was harder to slow down.
champagne kevin supposedly his fade makes the ball reach a maximum height of 18 feet which is about the height of a giraffe. That’s wild
kareem sky hook and dirk fadeaway are the top two imo.
@@goth9160 that’s impressive but the highest point a ball reaches isn’t necessarily the best time to try block it, how high the ball is 0-1 seconds after releasing is probably a better scenario to think about
Hero. His one championship will always be more valuable than all of KD's
Hell no kd worked insanely hard to get passed Lebum and bring curry all his rings 💯💯 💯💯 💯💯 💯
@@kristian9014 I feel bad for you.
10 9 8 76ers With the help of 3 other allstars and now 4...
Well what will Lebron fans say about kd 😂😂
JonathanB D. No doubt bout that.
his footwork is everything. he's not beating you with athleticism or strength, even tho he had underrated strength. He's winning with perfect technique, footwork, and an unguardable release. his one legged fadeaway could be the NBA logo
ok
Being 7 feet tall don't hurt
The crazy part is this video is leaving out the first 15 years of his career
I am a fan of Bron and MJ, but Dirk is one of the Most Skilled Offensive Players of all time. He can shoot threes, midrange. Can handle the ball. He can post up and drive. He's so underrated. For me, he's a top 15 player all time.
People underrate his impact on the game. And most only remember really old slow dirk
@@jakekunz5168 Guys like KD, Embiid, Joker, KAT, Chet, Wenbayama. They have Dirk in their game. 7 ft who can shoot
LeBron should never be compared to these two for offensively skillset
4:36-4:43 you cant play better D than that
3:34 this play looks physically impossible
Dirk has really adjusted his game as he aged. He was playing small forward in the early 2000's and was slashing and dunking on people. He would grab a rebound and push the ball up to start a fastbreak himself. Then he was operating in the high and low post most of the time in his 30's. And in the last 2 seasons he's just being used as a spot up 3 point threat (still very effective).

Yea i think people forget just how athletic he was in his younger years. Most guys don't adjust try their games until it's too late but Dirk always seemed ahead of that downward curve
Just a small nitpick. He never played the 3. He could have in certain situations but never more than a handful of plays per game.
I agree with you though he was alot more athletic than people will give him credit for.
@@bigred9991 He did play 3 in the very beginning. The Mavs initially start Dirk at 3 and AC Green at 4. However Dirk was very bad and Don decided to start Gary Trent over him, but at last they benched AC Green to give Dirk more minutes.
1:25 There is not a single person on the planet that can stop that.
I love players who create moves groundbreaking creativity
Poor Tiago Splitter. He played AMAZING defense on Dirk in multiple clips in this video and still got torched. The last shot on him was especially ridiculous!
Dirk has influenced a generation and forever changed how the sport is played. Few players notably evolved the game, but Dirk is easily one
The fact that u knew what the man was going to do and there’s nun u can do about it
He faded away in his career elegantly just like his iconic one legged fade away shot.
Dirk put on for the city frfr
imagine how discouraging it was for ibaka guarding him. He was playing some GREAT defense
Scoring machine
Dirks footwork and balance is so underrated. He never seems to be out of control🔥
I love how he was so patient in the post, he almost always got the shot he wanted.
Thank you for this amazing compilation. Dirk is a legend.
Most unique offensive weapon in NBA history.
I would love to hear Ibakas comment about his experience defending Dirk.
It's like a lay up in a form of fade away. Crazy.
I think he’s the greatest of all time. He’s the most unguardable player ever
Your opinion sounds exaggerated. He's not the greatest. Not even 0.1% of fans would have thought of that.
In his era many doubted he could perform i the playoffs let alone win a ring. His style was thought to be too finesse and too soft too euro. They were generally not able to punk him out his way of playong and was able to play passable defense. He was also a great playoff rebounder and mainly defensive rebounds. His battles with the spurs duncan and rockets yao really toughen him up and he had such confidence in himself that he didnt need to be in the media boasting or hating on his teammates and he didnt need to pick fights with the toughest players to show he had it. He slaughtered some tough guys and defenders in kenton martin, Bruce bowen, lebron james, lamar odom, tim duncan, yao ming and many more in the playoffs.
Underrated part of his game
You know that you're fucked when Dirk put his back to the rim.
Completely unstoppable
If only 2k19 didn't have his fade so slow
Beautiful poetry of motion
I have been waiting for you to put this one back.
04:04 "You reach, I teach"
Unstoppable Go to Move
Unguardable
Thank you
For the guys his size is already almost impossible to stop him at the post. Smaller defenders have absolutely no chance!
What a fucking animal, man. Dirk is the greatest.
Pretty cool video here. One of the greats.
Could not agree more Jay. Really nice post I reckon.
If Porzingis can’t do anything about Dirks fadeaway you know you’re toast
Do Markelle Fultz elite marksman
Un MONSTRUO
King of the midrange
Dirk would have more rings if his front office gave him more help. his one ring will always be more valuable because he stayed loyal. 2010-11 season he beat the OKC Thunder(KD-Russ-Harden), back to back champs lakers and super team Heat.
Man, I miss these days... When the warriors weren't anything.
Your The 🐐
I want dirk to mentor KP with that post fade
Lebron James sees this shot every time he falls asleep at night.
👏🏽👏🏽🐐
happy birtdha dirk
His defense might not be much but Dirk could literally score on anybody.
Big Al postup man
clamp god would you believe I’m legit still working on it?
@@EvinGualberto how much time you spend on those compilations?
clamp god depends on how much footage I want/how extensive I want it to be. But I would say that I invest a significant chunk of time into each of these
@@EvinGualberto i just can think how much it times take to do defensive compilations speccialy when you include contesting shots no just steals and blocks
clamp god at least a full day’s worth of just finding the clips. At least.
can you do the same thing with lamarcus aldridge?
1:35 triple teamed lol
Nowistki really had the next great mathematician for a shooting coach
No Rims were harmed during this video
Wow he stays alot on right side of the court .
can you do joel embiid post up moves pls.
Dirk in 201, Bron in 2016 and Kawhi in 2019. Three most valuable chips in nba history
no hate, not in a bad way but dirk's shot is anything but silky smooth
Passing vids?
how the hell do you block that
You can say that DN was never an elite defender...but I don't remember any of the elite defensive players of his time consistently shut him down. The best to stop him were the 06 refs.
Duncan is the people's champ
while Dirk was people's idol/wanted to be.
RINGS DON'T REALLY MATTER
ONLY A BEAUTIFUL JUMPSHOT OR SHOOTING STYLE THAT REALLY MATTERS
4:49
Clear 16 connector
Yall new GenZ don't understand
ever since I broke my ankle ... no insurance
... I play like dirk now
6:39 bruh
Draymond green face 😳 when he sees this video 😂😂😂😂😂😂
The crazy think is that this is old Dirk. Lol.
If only KP can do this with smaller defenders
I was a maverick when i didn't understand basketball. Watching Dirk now i am awed by how fundamentally sound he is. Tim Duncan needs to give that name to Dirk. I almost forgot how great his pump-fake was. I actually think Dwayne Wade stole all his Dirk moves in the post. I should also mention this is not how he entered the league. He worked his ass off to develop such post intelligence.
poor Ibaka is such a great defender and yet Dirk makes him his bitxh
If wemby develops this shot and move , post mid range from the elbow like dirk it’s over he will average 40
If he back your feet into the paint...you've lost the battle.
His best rivalry was with Duncan,,,
Great video, next can you do a Enes Kanter post up powerhouse please
Dirk just abusing Ibaka!
He’s going to the hof like if u agree
From 1:59 until 2:12 you can see why Draymond wouldn’t have made it back in the 90’s and early 2000’s
Kenneth Bevineau you act like the 90s and 2000s had tons of PF with perfect fade-aways
Kenneth Bevineau nigga draymond was a baby back then going against a legend..... wtf you want him to do
Whats the DEAL DRAYMOND!!.
This is crazy.. he's not athletic but smart and skilled as hell... and like 80%of his shots are nothing but net..😮🎉
Dirk's lone ring alone is MORE valuable than Queen James' & KD's COMBINED! Why??? Queen James & KD are both surrounded by superstars when they captured gold. On the other hand, Dirk was surrounded by aging veterans past their primes, yet he led his Mavericks team to undoubtedly the greatest upset in NBA history. Tim Duncan wouldn't win shit without Parker or Ginobili.
Ibaka cannot guard dirk 😂
even iblocka could'nt defend him well
7:56 Wait is that Snoop?? I don't remember he played for the Celtics🤣🤣
This is abuse
Kd is better
His form is so ugly. I get so mad watching him play . It looks like he’s just throwing the ball up
Truly disrespectful to say to one of the all time greats. He is easily better than Michael Jordan and Lebron James combined. Nobody ever will be as good as Dirk.
who pissed in your cheerios? Dirks post-move is unstoppable!!!
@@jayneugebauer8755 So true! Dirk is the man! #postfadeequalsgettinlaid
@@seanoha3295 I like the energy here Sean. I was thinking more of a larry bird and wilt chamberlain combination. thoughts?
@@jayneugebauer8755 Jay, really good thought here. I believe any combination of basketball players could not stack up to Dirk "post fadeaway" Nowitzki.
