Re: German Club Bayern Munich Would Not Want Dirk Nowitzki
of course not. it would completely destroy the competitive balance in the league. I suspect he would average 20 statues built and 10 jersey numbers retired per game.

The actual quote:
Quote:
When asked by the Sunday newspaper Bild am Sonntag if he would be interested in signing a big star like Nowitzki, Hoeness said: “That would be the wrong way! His salary is double our entire budget. We want basketball at the highest level. Dirk will not stop playing in the NBA until he can hardly run any more. That doesn’t help us at all.
Re: German Club Bayern Munich Would Not Want Dirk Nowitzki
Most people here probably don't even know shit who Uli Hoeneß is. Hoeneß is actually former football manager and now president for FC Bayern as a whole. Although I love him for everything else, he don't know shit about basketball. Basketball decisions of FC Bayern are all made by Pesic. Hoeneß just likes to talk to media about the philosophy the team implements, which is to rely on young, german players....

Uli could be an ass during most of his interviews but not this time, don't get fooled by EuroScum's dumbass trolling:

What r u talking about? I aint getting fooled by Euroleague. Euroleagues agenda is to show how low the value of NBA players perceived by euro teams is, which it is NOT! Hoeneß just talks about how Nowitzki will only leave the NBA when he cant even play anymore. Directly after that (it was an interview with Hoeneß & Pesic) Pesic stated that their goal is to produce their own "Nowitzkis". The statements of them are in no way decreasing the value of a player like Dirk, although posters like Euroleague and newspapers like Bild will try to make a controversial statement out of everything.
