Hell of a compliment from Dirk to Gallo!!!

And I am not talking the poster on this site!

"He is ahead of where I was at this time in my career"


Now, I am not one to get too excited over a string of good games, but a comment like does warrant some attention!


One caveat.....Shaq did say once that Curry will be the next dominent player after him, so even superstars can mis the mark when evaluating talent

Don't read to much into it, he was just being political, he said the same thing about bargnani, saying that bargnani was ahead currently than he was at the same point time in his carreer, he said Bargs, was more atheltic than him as well,...he's just playing the part.

actually both are true, both Bargnani and Gallo are ahead of where dirk was at this stage in his career.

take from it what you want to, but it's the truth.

Hopefully Gallo takes this to heart and continues to improve. There's still a long way to go for Gallo to reach Nowitzki status. He'll get there some day though. :gony:

oh great now everyone will jump on the "Dirk to NY" bandwagon

dantoni wouldnt know how to use him effectively anyway

but u know dirk is a sweetheart

Effectively this means that Dirk Nowitzki wants to be in a Knick uniform next year
