Dirk Nowitzki said in a German publication that he still wants to have a family, but "it will not be easy to win my heart" after his relationship with former fiancee Cristal Taylor ended with a rocky, emotional split. Nowitzki spoke openly about his romance with Taylor for the first time to Bild Magazine. He covered many aspects of their time together, including how they met and their wedding plans, in a question-and-answer format.

Dirk y're making a huge mistake in losing someone you love because of your pride. I think you and her should go to therapy to get over the past so that you can have the happiness you had with her back. She was good to you for seven years - she has clearly changed!

The bad thing is that Dirk is a good hearted guy who is low key and doesn't cause trouble. No offense but this is something I would rather see happen to Michael Vick or Shockey.

OK this is really on Dirk not the woman regardless of her past. Dirk should not be allowed full custody because he is rich or she is a perceived gold digger she has to be proven to be an unfit mother. letting someone else raise her previous children does not make her an unfit mother.It seems to me they both had strong feelings for each other and I will have to admitt it seems like he's more concerned with what people will say about any association with her. But if he doesn't care about his Soft label as an NBA player he shouldn't be concerned with his soft label regarding women. Dirk is clearly not a player and I'm not talking about B-Ball

In SI this week Cuban tries to say that the K-Mart playoff fiasco was actually a smokescreen for this mess with Dirk. No doubt about it that this girl was a conman.

I'll take a line from the Great Redd Foxx, "You Big Dummy"!

June 23, 2009  11:39 AM ET

I would say it is dirk's fault b/c when you are rich you need to background check every female that you have a serious relationship with. You dont reasonably have to hire somebody but you need o meet some family and see if she have any goals in life before discussin marraige and kids. Also, this chick was ugly. If you are going to screw up, make sure the chick in actually cute and have a brain. He is a millionaire. But I guess that is german Engineering... Room Room

Shouldn't yall be discussing this on Dr. Phil or something? Who cares Dirk fell for a golddigging con artist? He got some of that fire and got sprung! Things didn't went from decent to worsr and here we are! So what?

Cuban put his foot in his mouth speaking out of place to a players mother. Now he goes for the easy target and blames Dirks girlfriend. Who girlfriend distracted them when Miami came back on them in the finals. And who let's themself get conned for 7 years...

Apparently you care too. Cared enough to make a comment. It's T&R if any of us had something better to do at work we'd be doing it.

Taylor? did she change her last name? I thought her last name was Meth

How do you know he is? I didnt think I would see Kwai Chang Caine in a closet with rope tied around his piece either... (david carradine)

Dirk has been with this chick 7 years. He's probably heard it all before. Smart money says he's saying what he thinks others want to hear. I wouldn't be a bit surprised if 9 months after she's released from prison, they have baby #2.
