🔼Luka Doncic 19-20 season highlights (Part 2)
Every dog has his days unfortunately no one knows dirk
2011 Dirk in the playoffs is an absolutely unstoppable force. Not a single person could have guarded him that year
One of the all-time greatest playoff performances. Dirk is a beast.
he was a beast :)
Hakeem had the greatest! *Dirk had the hardest of all time!*
That series was incredible, carlise defense schemes and our veteran leadership was the difference. We trailed in the final 3 minutes of almost every game in that series but timely shot making and some defensive takeaways made that one of the best series to watch
You gotta give dirk credit on this for real
it's nice 2 meet u + i LOVE olajuwon almost as much as jabbar chamberlain + russell
When Dirk hit that Larry Bird-esque sideways, off-balance shot, I knew that the Mavs were going to steal that game. When I watch the play right after that one, I can hear the crowd gasping as Dirk spins, fakes and drills that ridiculously tough fade-away like it was routine. This was just one of several outstanding performances during the 2011 playoff run. I’m eternally grateful for the memories.
you knew? are you a billionaire already? bc, you know, you can always bet on your "i knew".
@@williamblake7386 I mean if you see one of the greatest offensive player catch fire, you'll start to think that there's no stopping him. OKC is a young team, when I saw Dirk caught fire, I knew that there's no stopping him now.
william blake bitter much?
I love how James harden turns his head and looks at dirk after he makes the shot
Imo more MJ like to me
Dirk had to go through
Kobe
LeBron
Wade
Durant
Harden
Westbrook
And others to get his first title. One of the most impressive runs of all time
Definitely the best chip of the 2010s
Dont leave off Damian Lillaird and LaMarcus Aldridge
ROSS REACTS this is in 2011 lillard was drafted in 2012
@@braydenjohnson2090 damn you right, well shit it was Brandon Roy and LaMarcus Aldridge then.
@@sykrss9534 Roy/LA > Dame/CJ tbh
There were so many shots that dirk made in that series that didnt touch one speck if rim. Literally nothing but net for the entire series. I dont care what anyone says, that shooting was the best shot making in a series of all time.
Some of those klay/curry years have got to be better
Doris: Dirk, Jeff Van Gundy called what you did tonight legendary. What is your reaction to that?
Dirk: Ya, for some reason in this series I can't get a rebound.
This is why we all love Dirk
So humble
Ill never ever forget this interview
DIRK was just virtually Unstoppable in this playoff series in 2011 , truly he was a force to be reckoned with that year
The most legitimate playoff run in NBA history. The teams that they faced all had their star players healthy. Nowitzki was just on another stratosphere that year. Dirk the legend.
Dirk was a force of nature those playoffs
he's always a force of nature during the playoffs except for that ugly 07 loss to the warriors. oh well :)
the announcers didn't even talk about the 10-0 run Dirk had in the fourth quarter to tie the game at 101
GOAT
Dirk was unconscious is this game. Definitely in his prime
Not physical prime by any means, that was when he was pulling 50 point 20 rebound games in duels with McGrady, but his peak in terms of overall offensive skills.
06 was Dirks prime but Mavs got cheated by the refs. Dirks always been a beast but people forget. He had a 40pt + 15reb and 6 steals game in 01 against Duncan in the playoffs. Underrated
This was actually the last year of his prime. The next season thereafter he stared declining. So this 2011 season really was his last chance
Ignore people saying this wasn’t his prime.. idc what stats dirk got when he was just his physical prime.. this is the bet dirk ever was. His skills & mental caught up to each other. The game came much easier to him. He didn’t have to exert aloof of energy at all. He became a master of his universe. Unstoppable
@@federalcontraband so he was in his prime for one year? His prime was 06-07 this was the towards the end
Dirk has been doing this since 99, he was week after week top scorer.
He just needed a team around him.
Man, Dirk had laser focus that year. He could not miss, even if he tried
Best championship run, nobody can stop Dirk that time 🔥
Dirk was GOAT in 2011
He was the best player in the world during the 2011 playoffs
I'm a Lakers fan and to this day I tell people this. I can't remember anybody that unstoppable in a playoffs run other than Jordan and Kobe.
Hey man, you know the meaning of GOAT? Greatest of "all-time" in 2011?
But yeah, I get your point
Jan Mat if you got the point why did your dumbass feel the need to comment?
Don't forget he was MVP In 2007 season
Superhuman performance when needed the most. Not many superstars have this level of performance even once.
I seen this game live and remember him killing Serge Ibaka and he was of the premiere defenders at that time, Dirk is the greatest international player of all time.
Bruh dirk made every PF his son this year, he was unstoppable.
dirks unstoppable! spilling water in court trick did not work in icing dirk on FT.
Hof legend he is !!
the amazing part is the mavs had two of these massive 4th quarter comebacks in the same playoffs... the one against miami was even more satisfying
That's what superstars do... Dirk is one of them
Probably one of the greatest playoffs run.....in the NBA.....beat the defending champs Lakers,
Beat the young talented thunder with great supporting players,
And beat the stacked Miami Heat...
Man, my favourite player was just in savage mode in this playoffs. One of the best moments of my life ngl !
For those who keep busting our balls with how many points Harden scores these days... THIS IS HOW YOU SCORE 40!!! With 20 shots... not with 30... if you shoot 30 times you score 40 points then I don't need your 40... you just forced shot after shot to get them... sorry but if you give any really good scorer in the league 30 shots in a game he'll get 40 most nights...
Anyway... this was a BIG playoff performance by Dirk... that 2011 ring of the Mavs was so incredible... Dirk got inducted to the pantheon and people have no idea how ridiculous is that Dirk won even one ring in his career... the refs hate the Mavs cause of Cuban, the Mavs never had another true star besides Dirk, the 2011 team was full of vets that everyone was calling washed up, they faced ALL the best teams in those playoffs and beat the shit out of them... and most important... Dirk never left to find others to gift him rings like Lebron or KD... he kept pushing and pushing in his own team... he wanted to either win for HIS TEAM or not win at all... so yeah... that one ring means so much more than a ring while having Wade and Bosh to push you to it... or having Steph and Klay to help you cruise to a ring... btw, for the idiots that say only KD is a snake... yeah... Lebron and KD did THE SAME THING... they went to get rings easy by teaming up with 2 other top 10 players in the league...
So yeah... RESPECT TO THE GREAT DIRK!!!
what a FRANCHISE PLAYER
#41 forever
This was my favorite Dirk game of all time.
Dirk was COOKING IBAKA that game .
Not just that game, that whole series haha
I mean it was mostly Collison that got the work at the end there, but yes, your point still stands, haha.
Not only dirk is legendary in playoffs this year, old jason kidd also guarded westbrook pretty well is also unbelievable
If only Jason Kidd could coach this team now
His jump shot is a piece of art
The Mavs’ epic Game 2 comeback in the Finals overshadows this great comeback. This one was very entertaining to watch as well. Dirk with one of my favorite title runs ever.
He and the Mavericks took down a young Portland team, swept the the two-time defending champ Lakers, defeated the rising Thunder, and outplayed the favorite Heat.
His free throws were so clutch this entire playoff.
This was the turning point in the series, not game 3. The way that game ended showed everyone this team was legit!
This was his best performance in a playoff series.
I think game one of this series was his best. It's hard though with this game, game 1, game 7 against the Spurs in 06', and game 5 against the Suns in 06' were all great performances.
14 - 15 FG is amazing. 😯😯😯
And he's so humble in the interview always put the team a credit.
He shot 14-15 from the free throw line not from the field
dirk is a legend.
2011 playoff run favorite games
1. Start off with that game 4 sweep in Dallas where we set the record for 3's which was later broken. Epic game because I wasn't going to celebrate anything until the clock went to 0 against the GOAT Kobe Bryant.
2. Game 5 okc which I believe was that OT game that sent okc home.
3. Heat series, that final 10 minutes of the 4th quarter was the best part of that series minus that last play that dirk had in game 6, ball at the top of the key with that little spin move and lefty lay in.
Overall I havent seen a better playoff run
Still one of the best and most underrated championship runs of all time.
There are a couple TH-camrs who actually know what they’re talking about when it comes to the NBA, and they definitely give this team their due credit. Dirk is and seemingly always will be underappreciated, but in several championship rankings, I’ve seen Dallas’ ring at 1 or 2, ahead or only behind Cleveland’s.
@@MylotheZooLovingScientist DafuQ ?!? Cleveland championship is the most overrated and undeserved title in history, so many events had to happen after game 4 for them to win game 7 by a few points.
It's not underrated at all lol
Harden was like.. I'm going texas as well
This man isnt talked about in the area of 1 of the clutches runs of all time that’s crazy and he moves so slow it’s amazing to watch
Love that man!! Remember like it was yesterday! ♥️♥️♥️
OKC fans complained about all the FTs but if you watch the whole game he should have had even more. That whole post season teams were allowed a lot of physical play on him on the perimeter. The modern Harden would have been on the line 30 times that night.
Charon58 Collison was grabbing his waste and hitting his arm and pulling on him every single time he was on him. Those FTs were legit. Collison got credit for locking him up the game before but it wasn’t legit defense. I remember OKC fans complaining too but that was the coach’s fault for deciding to play him that way.
@@Charon58 a tickle would put Harden on the FT line, clearly the Refs don't like Dirk that much, fuck them.
This was a F#$%& clinic From Dirk, just unstoppable
Dirk destroyed EVERYONE!!!
Dirk forever!
dirk,kobe,curry: staying with that one team,leading the team through good and bad times,manage to win one chip while beeing the dominant force with literally no allstars/old former allstars or just fresh inc allstars,ice in veins shooters,whether its on the field or at the line,their rings are the only rings in the last years i really acknowledge,lebron got his rings by joining allstars(2016 he really carried but dont forget he got kyrie who made the winning shot and love),kd got his by joining allstars,the celtic 4 the same,curry got his through injurys in 2015 but still it was matched up,he and partly klay and iggy vs lebron and he validated the year after by winning first unanimous mvp,sorry i forgot the spurs and duncun but to be fair,though tim dunc is as good as a leader and same loyalty compared to the three i stated at the start he had gregg popovich and the system with tony parker and manu ginolbli
curry had talent drafted to him, and kobe had shaq waiting for him, and requested to join the lakers there when getting drafted by the hornets, dirk's stay is legit, he was never given enough talent for most of his career
Y’all gotta stop with the “Kobe and curry are loyal ”narrative they always had a good front office to help them winning titles
he is unstoppable
People hate on lebron for not winning that first year in Miami: let’s be honest that was prime Dirk.
He also had Wade & Bosch
It's not really the prime dirk. More likely the last year of his prime. And the man is on a mission!!!
@@soba5534 come on man this is the best he’s ever played in his career hence the ring that translates to your prime years.
我最喜愛的NBA球員 願意減薪讓球隊補強及簽新球員 球技人品俱佳...一生只待一隊 忠誠度滿滿
Danke 🎉😊
True legend of nba
My Ultimate Idol! Now I don't know how to upgrade that any more after seeing this again.
How that Marion block wasn't one of the top of the decade...
they play the same position but collison looks like a wing trying to guard a center
Dirk was unconscious that game but can we please talk about the way the Thunder executed in the clutch ? Didn’t run the cloc’ down with 25 sec left up 2 like are you joking ; took a shot or turned the ball over in 7sec up 10 with 2:10 left like god wtf
4:26 That footwork tho
Master at work
Hand down, man down
I remember watching this series feeling sorry for nick collison
Wicken'n Chaffles i Swede I said the same thing and until this day other than when dame sent west brick home .. I never seen anyone get destroyed as bad as dirk did poor nick
Wicken'n Chaffles he was playing some dirty ass defense, too. Watch that play where Collison fouled him at 101-99. He completely grabbed him the entire time. I remember OKC fans complaining about the amount of FTs Dirk was getting but...look at that shiz!
Honorable mention to Ibaka when he was right up on Dirk, hand waving right in his face, then Dirk nailed the fade away on him.
Michael W one of Dirk’s most savage moments.
And ibaka
KG couldn't take over games like Dirk could
Oh my god what a game
This is Dirk’s greatest single game performance IMO
Dirk went berserk in those playoffs
God Bless Nick Collison. He couldn't do nothing with Dirk. Dirk was on 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Nowitzki showing tru confidence
GOAT
The move at 4:27 is just amazing my favorite player of all time
Dirk was ILLEGAL during that post season.
4:29 one of the best shots I've ever seen
DIRK BEST
Just a confident veteran who’s been there before against kids.
Lollll @ 6:50, Dirk explaining to the refs that OKC was trying to ice him during those clutch time free throws lol
Lol Ice him? I was wondering what he was fussing about!
This was In the Zone Dirk. He had to be in some other dimension when he was playing here. He just had to be.
3:32momma here goes that man
Dirk may have the most all net makes of all time. His shit does NOT hit rim lmao
Lawler's Law was broken in a big way in this game!
Anyone surprised Durant didn’t try to leave for Dallas after this loss?
I think his career best playoff performance
man this is goat level...
4:31 what ?
When did you find footage of this game?
Where*
i remember .. what a game … 15down at 4 minutes to go … 10down with 2:30 … and then ...
This series gave Ibaka nightmares I’m sure.
The Mavs seemed content to get that one title. They haven't come near putting a TEAM together to make another run. They have to put some pieces around Luka if they want another chip.
Man I remember errbody was going for the heat and I wanted to bet on the Mavs so bad but I didn't and lost!
Anyone know where I can watch full game replays of this series?
if u figure it out let me know
Anyone know name of song playing in the arena at about 4:46-5:26 ?
This guy........
DADDY
Who’s here after the Mavs just owned the Thunder again in the 2024 playoffs?
If only this was at home :/
I like the fact that it was up there in OKC. I love looking at the crowd reaction after every shot
Jokic please do thisss
The only superstars to defeat Durant, Westbrook and Harden when they were together:
2010: Kobe
2011: Dirk
2012: LeBron and D-Wade
they would have kept losing
@@theonlygoodonehere2259 I don't know about that. That's too much HOF talent together to have not have eventually reached the top had they stayed healthy.
@@Riles3152 it never really matters how much talent guys who make HOF are on the team, if they never fixed their flaws hence 2024 modern time, its a strong indicator they would have never won, its always about how a system is set and how guys fit with each other and how well they play their roles to win a chip, thunder got far through iso and speed, and pindowns, but certain teams would have figured them out already by that time
This highlight should've included the amazing Kidd strip-steal against Durant with 60 seconds remaining...
I literally thought Larry Bird in a Mavericks jersey was in the thumbnail
the greatest team off of all time bro get the hell outta here
He averaged 28pts 8rebs while shooting 48/46/90 simply put it was his time that year
They'd always review all of Kidd's 3s
Not with team: Dallas: Marco Vásquez vs OKC: Jiang Reyes Barrita in Game 4 WCF 2011
pls tell me who u all would call the most elite between the 80 sonics 88 mavs 92 blazers 93 knicks + 97 heat
"to ice Dirk Nowitzki" lol
Dirk workin them refs at 6:50 lol
Nathan Young how? He was just telling them the OKC players on the bench were intentionally spilling water on the floor to try and ice him. “That’s an old trick.”
@@potato-whiz it was supposed to be sarcasm lol. Spilling a little water is not gonna rattle dirk at all. One of the best and most reliable shooters of all time in my opinion.
@@potato-whiz at 5:08 you can see him count the and 1 with his hand right before it even goes in lol. He knew it was good.
