For that and considerably more, Mavericks fans serenaded Nowitzki with one serenade similarly as heartfelt as the one preceding: “THANK YOU DIRK.” That followed messages of admiration and appreciation from legendary NBA forwards in participation, including Larry Bird, Charles Barkley, Scottie Pippen, Detlef Schrempf and Shawn Kemp.

“This is my new home,” Nowitzki said to a roar of approval. “I left Germany over 20 years ago and became a Texan.”
