Dirk Nowitzki may have to return that 20,000-NBA point marker he earned a couple of weeks ago if current European/American exchange basket rates are factored in.
Apparently, calculations by German basket economist Dr. Benedikt Acton have shown that a US basket is only worth 1.126 points on The Continent, thereby making Nowitzki’s 20,000 NBA points worth approximately 8,880 European points. Speaking to American newspaper The Onion, Dr. Acton stated that “nobody could have predicted the soaring inflation that followed Kobe Bryant’s 81-point game in 2006.”
The good news for Nowitzki, though, is that his 1,200-plus points scored in international play has dropped no value on the international basket market.
