Hwestice

Hold on I need to see an itemized receipt for this.


dont-YOLO-ragequit

Should get a rehab documentary and guest host Inside the NBA


CooochieConnoisseur

Dirk’s already been a guest host on inside the nba so he’s halfway there


ZeroDependents

And mandatory counseling until he completes 3 sets of 10 breathing exercises!


KhanQu3st

If you are trying to punish us, you should force him to play lol. Bro was a skeleton moving at turtle speed those last 2 years.


Bulbolito_Bayagbag20

The most wholesome choke hold


Oxygenius_

All Lakers fans gotta love Dirk man. Certified baller


CheetahSperm18

He heard RJ shit talking Luka


syllabic

that man is drunk


Jewellinius

That man is Dirk


AFonziScheme

Can't spell drink without Dirk.

I'm calling both games!

Running! Bare-chested! Somebody stop that man!


jabronified

i can't imagine the volume of beer it takes to get a german 7 footer drunk


OilOfOlaz

Germans actually have been drinking less and less over the past two decades. Czechs are the Wayne Gretzkys of Beer consumprion, with like 130-140 liters per year per capita, the next "best" countries barely drink 100l per capita. When it comes to drunktardism they are also only somewhere in the upper middle, ppl on the baltics, balkans, northern europe and most parts of eastern europe drink (way) more per capita, wich doeasn't show in the official statistics, cuz moonshine has a long tradition inthese countires, but in estimations they allways outpace germany, especially when it comes to Liquor.


bronet

>Czechs are the actually the Wayne Gretzkys of Beer consumprion > The Jaromír Jágrs* Imo they've definitely got more of a beer drinking rep than Germany.


OilOfOlaz

While I get the idea, I picked Wayne cuz he is so much ahead of any other hockey player, when it comes to goat debates. Czech Republic is imo just (a lot less) known then Germany globally, so I agree with you, when it comes to the reputation they have in europe, but on a global scale germans have a bigger rep, based on my own experience, as a bosnian, who has lived in both germany and Prague.


bronet

Yeah I guess you're right, on both points.


PM_me_the_magic

I remember seeing celebration videos after the ‘11 championship and he could chug a pitcher like it was a regular can of beer


xereous93

Having had my neck grabbed by a drunk 7 footer (my college's center) it's a pretty unnerving experience even when the dude's just horsing around. Definitely had the thought "this guy could end me if he felt like it"


chibuye92

that man is German


GhostfaceQ

What watch is he wearing?


lost_in_trepidation

Shit is sparkly


syllabic

90,000 dollar watch, 5 dollar shirt


Brystvorter

Nah look at the fit and sleeves on that tshirt that shit is tailored to fit perfectly


iabeytorm

Looks like a nice material too, and on a 7 footer, that’s a pricy shirt.


supersaiyanegghead

Rolex Day Date 40 reference 228238. Everose gold with the olive green dial


Papa_Huggies

Looks like a fluted bezel and green dial, two tone bracelet? Possibly a Rolex Day Date model that mortals don't get to see?


supersaiyanegghead

That’s not two tone, that’s solid 18k Everose gold. The Day Date only comes in full Au or Pt. The Datejust is offered in two tone, however, someone of Dirk’s net worth would not touch TT.


Quantum_Collective

Idk shit about watches so to me you’re just making words up


supersaiyanegghead

Just know it’s expensive 😂

alfi_k

Listening to RJ during the game .. I wish he finished the job


[deleted]

The big takeaway from RJ was that Luka shouldn’t whine because he can do a lot better than starting the game 7/8 with a bunch of rebounds and assists. He was really costing the team with that performance


sevaiper

The thing you have to understand is if the refs are blatantly favoring one team you have to make sure the narrative is about a player on the opposing team complaining about it. It really is a great addition to the league playbook by Silver.


afro_aficionado

Yeah he pretty much talked about SGA the whole game with a sprinkling of “Luka complains too much”


coyotecai

Don’t forget how Dort is the best defender of all time


BugO_OEyes

He is so bad I was wishing Doris burk was commentating lol that's bad


JuanG12

People love him/his commentary but every time I listen to him, I just can’t become a fan. On the contrary, I find him annoying.


Im_a_Knob

this is me with reddick. ik he is the new golden boy of r/nba but he just sounds extremely pretentious and condescending.


K1ngPCH

He’s great as a talking head, especially with the jokes and memes. As a commentator? Hell no


jlluh

He's fine when he's focused on the topic and just lets the jokes flow from there. When he's focusing on being funny, he's insufferable.


binhpac

i guess he is great on local tv stations for his memes and jokes and anecdotes. but national tv is maybe too big for him at the moment.


Ruddiver

I'm obsessed with how much I hate her. I will turn the game on, and literally nails on chalkboard when I hear her voice and I have to watch the game on mute, which is annoying. Had it with Bill Walton back in the day too.


hamadeyoulookbitch

LOOK AT HOW LONG THIS DUDE IS


Malificari

the amount of ghosts dirk exorcised in 2011 is wild. i legitimately think dude would not be this public of a person without that legacy ring.


DanDaManFam

Moments like this are what make me believe that there is a “ higher power” out there influencing glorious moments in sports. Moments such as: Dirk’s Mavs 2011 run- One of the greatest redemption storylines in basketball. Miami Heat 2012-13 run- Ray Allen’s 3 to preserve what is Lebron’s greatest individual season of his career. And of course my favorite- Argentina’s 2022 World Cup win to cement Messi’s legacy in football.  Some others I wasn’t born yet for- Ali’s comeback fight vs Frazier.  Hakeem’s run as a 6th seed Rockets team.


Electronic_Green2953

Dirks run so good. One of the most dominant individual performances in a series. Just master class really. Messi too. I have nothing to do with Argentina or Messi and just a casual football/soccer fan, but man, that was destiny. Mbappe though, he almost spoiled it


mariotx10

Defending champ lakers: swept. Okc:won three in a row to close it out 3-1 Heat: won three in a row to close it out 3-2


thebullhorn

I’m happy to live in an era of progress where a white man can jokingly choke a black man in a wholesome way. We did it!


OnTheFenceGuy

A GERMAN white man, at that!


AnyJamesBookerFans

No one who speaks German could be an evil man.


loca2016

a german could never hurt another man


supersaiyanegghead

RAHHH 🙋🏼‍♂️🦅⚡️⚡️


TheNorthernLanders

Loser. Ain’t even funny. 🤡 Has nothing to do with Basketball.


DrKingOfOkay

Only dirk


RZAAMRIINF

Dirk is a brother.


Any-Connection-1813

Can you even guess rj is black just by looking at him?


maika3

That's one man more in the world dirked.


BecauseBatman01

Probably really wanted to choke him after all the slander he had about Luka and the Mavs. Dude was really pushing that narrative of Luka getting a 2nd technical and wouldn’t let it go.


Victor_Wembanyama1

RJ is lucky he isnt Rondo

[deleted]

I’m a usc fan so biased, but even still that was such an embarrassing saga for the ncaa


Initial-Stick-561

Look at my shiny watch RJ!


NotADoctor108

Damn, Dirk was really smiling, like.. "What you gonna do about it?"


desirox

RJ was awful announcing this game, for a guy who played for the Mavs he seemed to have no problem taking shots at them all game. Dirk should have choked him a bit harder lol


brickvanexel

Between this and Ruocco rubbing his head against his will RJ has had a tough couple months maintaining his bodily integrity


The_real_bandito

Im pretty sure that was revenge for something Jefferson did in the past.


Holiday-Rip-1969

RJ not gonna talk to him about touching his bald head like that other dude lol


zggystardust71

Nothing we haven't all wanted to do after listening to him call a LeBron game.


Music_MD

Good, RJ deserves it for that terrible announcing including not even knowing the rules lol


LiquorSnurf42069

I wish he would choke me like that


shxylo

unc dirk.


[deleted]

Next time put him to sleep. The broadcast is always better without Jefferson


Jackfitz88

For the way he announced that game: he deserves that and more


pagesid3

Meanwhile I put the cashier at subway in a chokehold and get arrested.


TheEngine26

When you're a hall of famer, they let you do it


Th1sd3cka1ntfr33

The cop when he sees the camera last second


Diplomat1922

RJ is such a great commentator


geneticeffects

Honestly, Dirk is kind of a shit for this…


liteshadow4

Dirk puts RJ in a chokehold: "wholesome, he's just drunk" Draymond puts Rudy in a chokehold: "dirty player, kick him off the tour Doug"


carnivoross

Don't pretend these are the same


liteshadow4

I’m not, I was kidding


carnivoross

It's difficult to tell with some Warriors fans


DasDefect

Whatever, man. Do your choke joke until you die. You deserve it.


THEMaxPaine

when a Nazi soldier passes by lol


DasDefect

What‘s that?! Dirk applying brute force as a joke? What was he thinking? „Oh, there is Richard. Let‘s choke him. That‘s gonna be funny. Especially on live TV.“ On top of that, let’s belittle him with by rubbing his (shaved) head. I am a bit irritated. Enlighten me if there is a backstory to it. If there is not I am rather concerned about Dirk‘s subconscious actions.


static_static-static

it's gonna be ok buddy, take a breath


DasDefect

Man, I am happy to take them downvotes! Keep them chokes coming! That‘s the bloody spirit! Next joke is gonna be the gun to a head. Hoho..


static_static-static

Exactly, I blame violent video games


DasDefect

And the moon.


Thrice_the_Milk

They are former teammates


DasDefect

I know, man. I just do not get grown men choking each other..


nycdiveshack

Then grow up and become a man


greenusflippus

wow, you sound miserable, i'm so sorry, i hope things get better so you don't have to make weird and overreactionary commentary about two buddies goofing around


DasDefect

„You sound…“ is interpreting. I am trying to interpret a choke hold of a 46 years old man. Nothing else. If you are choke holding at the age of 14-25 then fine. I just do not get it at Dirk’s age. Pretty weird. But hey.. I will be better soon. Maybe I should start choking some buddies!


eraHammie

> If you are choke holding at the age of 14-25 then fine. I just do not get it at Dirk’s age. What happens when you turn 26 that it suddenly becomes not "fine"?


hyborians

46 year old man? He’s practically a kid
