Dallas,
Twenty-one seasons.
One team. My home.
No stat, no record, no award in this game means more to me.
We won an NBA Championship together.
From the moment I arrived in Dallas riding on this amazing roller coaster, you lifted me, supported me, pushed me to work harder.
So many memories. So many stories. They are not only mine. They are ours.
This is THANK YOU Mavs fans, from the bottom of my heart, for taking in a kid from Wurzburg and making me one of your own.
I will miss playing, but I can't wait to start the next chapter with you.
Forever and grateful, forever yours, and forever a Dallas Maverick.
-- Dirk Nowitzki

21 seasons! Damn! Once again, I feel old.

Always liked Dirk. Nice farewell letter.

Yup, and unlike Vince Carter he only should have retired 2 years ago, not 10.

Peace out Dirk.

How does Danny Hart sit down with balls that big?

talking about Vince Carter, the guy is looking for a 22nd season. Some players can't leave the game.

Should have mention also Tim Duncan, 19 years with the Spurs.

I think Duncan left while still fairly productive.
I don't see that they've filled the Robinson-Duncan role.

Agree but that a tough role to fill. Having said that I didn't the series with Denver would be as close as it is.
