LeBron James: “I place Dirk Nowitzki on the same level as Manu Ginobili”

It is clearly one of the most beautiful statues dedicated to a player, and LeBron James was in Dallas on Sunday night for the Mavericks tribute to Dirk Nowitzki. The former MVP is a legend in the city, and he now has his day, his street and now his statue! The work ” is a fadeaway on one leg, and it could only be that! » reacted LeBronopponent of Nowitzki in the 2011 Finals.

“Dirk Nowitzki is a legend. It’s an icon. I think he’s the best international of all time, and I put him on the same level as Manu (Ginobili). What he brought to this franchise, to this town… This guy was a killer, Dirk was a killer! He revolutionized the position of strong winger who deviates, and the idea that one could have of an interior. »

“We could never counter it…”

So what stood out to LeBron was that overhead shot, often taken on one leg while stepping back?

“We couldn’t put a small on him because he was too big, nor a big one too slow because he was too fast on his first step. You could never counter him because his shot went from the back of his head, Larry Bird style. When talking about Dirk it is one of the best 4 positions ever alongside Charles Barkley, Tim Duncan, Kevin Garnett, Kevin McHale…”

Opponent of the German as a player then as an assistant, Darvin Ham also paid tribute to him.

“I think he is at the origin of a new wave of interiors capable of evolving offshore” concludes the Lakers coach. “Clearly, there are his shots at the free throw line, impossible to defend… And this jump shot that went to the sky, before ending in a shower of baskets… It’s great, and I’m happy for him. It’s well deserved. »
