Most NBA fans know Dirk Nowitzki as a stellar shooter, the center who revolutionized how big men could operate, and as the leader of one of the most impressive championship runs in NBA history. The German was famously a gentle soul but an intense competitor. However, most fans aren’t privy to the fact that his quiet demeanor was a facade. He also had a humorous side, which he rarely showed in public, but had no qualms about showcasing it to his teammates. Former Mavericks star Dennis Smith Jr. appeared on Heat icon Udonis Haslem’s The OGs podcast to talk about his time in the league. He touched on what it was like to play with Nowitzki in Dallas and how the general perception of the German isn’t accurate. He said, Smith also recently appeared on Theo Pinson’s Run Your Race podcast and went even more in-depth on what it was like to be on the same team as the Hall of Famer. The guard was amazed about how hard the center worked on his game and how diligent he was about improving. He said, However, Nowitzki’s obsession with winning once cost him $10,000 but he refuses to pay it up. Dirk refused to pay off the bet he lost to Dennis Smith Jr. Nowitzki was among the most skilled players in the league, but quickness was his Achilles heel. The seven-foot center moved on the court at a crawling speed. However, that didn’t stop him from challenging Smith, who was known for his agility, to a race. But when he unsurprisingly lost, he refused to give the guard what he owed him. Recalling the hilarious incident on the Run Your Race podcast, Smith said , Despite earning over $250 million in salary alone during his Hall of Fame career, Nowitzki refused to pay off the bet. Smith is persistent and wants the money he rightfully earned, but the German continues to evade giving his former teammate $10,000.Title: "From Sacking Managers to Overhauling Man United: The Perpetual Face-Plants of the Glazer-Driven Revamp"
After his team's 102-89 home win on Wednesday night over Purdue Fort Wayne, Penn State coach Mike Rhoades challenged his team's fan base to show up and make more noise. "Sweat with us," he said at one point. At 5-0, the Nittany Lions haven't had to sweat much to get off to a fast start. They might not have to expend much perspiration to make it 6-0 on Monday when they meet Fordham in a semifinal matchup at the Sunshine Slam tournament in Daytona Beach, Fla. Penn State hasn't played a strong schedule so far, but the team has been impressive. It's averaging 98.2 points per game and 13.8 steals per game, both of which ranked second in Division I through Saturday's play. The Nittany Lions were seventh per kenpom.com in turnover rate, forcing 25.3 per 100 possessions. Point guard Ace Baldwin Jr. is leading the charge, scoring 16.4 points and dishing out 7.8 assists while chipping in 2.6 steals. Zach Hicks has nearly doubled his scoring average from 8.4 last season to 15.8 this season, while Northern Illinois transfer Yanic Konan Niederhauser has beefed up the interior, tallying 12.2 points and 7.2 rebounds. Meanwhile, Fordham (3-3) is coming off a 73-71 home loss Friday night against Drexel in New York. The Rams blew a seven-point lead early in the second half and missed a chance to force overtime when leading scorer Jackie Johnson III missed a layup as time expired. Johnson, a UNLV transfer, is averaging 19 points per game and is making nearly 48 percent of his shots as one of three Rams with double-figure scoring averages. Jahmere Tripp scores at an 11.0 clip while Japhet Medor is contributed 10.5, but Fordham is struggling to make shots, canning only 41.5 percent from the field. The Rams were picked for a 14th-place finish in the Atlantic 10 despite returning more scoring than any team in the league except for VCU. Third-year coach Keith Urgo thinks his team can defy low external expectations. "We're experienced and I think we're poised to have a tremendous year," he said. --Field Level Media
