This might be his last home game, and the end of an era...my favorite player of any sport, all time...21 years devoted to the city of Dallas. Truly humble, great role model, monster competitor...anyone at the game?

Watching Dirk actually helped me study for my test from grade school to college. I can tell my future kids I watched a legend

Though his NBA career ended nearly two weeks ago, Dirk Nowitzki took his time crafting the perfectly-written farewell to those who watched him play for more than two decades.

The former Mavericks superstar penned a letter to fans. The words were placed over a watermark of Nowitzki's silhouette, which was frozen in the pose of his iconic one-legged fallaway jumper.

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
