Um..Tim does it all the time dude. And I won't bring up the rings "bullshit" even though when you're talking about clutch, rings should be brought up..because clutch = championships...ask Houston. They weren't called "Clutch City" in the mid '90s because they lost to an 8th seed in the playoffs. Dirk was clutch tonight, yes...but let him do that in the playoffs, and we'll talk again.

Even if they bring up championships, Dirk has a championship under his belt.
But alas, Dirk is clutch. We already knew this though. It's just fluke shots by the Warriors, one bad game 6, and horrendous Finals officiating that creates the misconception that he isn't.

He does get mugged every night. That's why the Spurs didn't win titles in 00, 01, 02, 04, 06, & 08. That's also why they didn't go 16-0 in the playoffs when the Spurs won it all in 99, 03, 05, & 07. Shaq, Wilt, Dirk, Jordan, & Mark Madsen in their careers combined haven't been mugged & fouled half as much as Tim Duncan.
If the refs didn't let the defender get away with nonstop crap on Tim Duncan, we'd be looking at a 10-peat right now.

The purpose of this thread was to discuss Dirk's clutch ability, certainly championships is the whole purpose of playing the game but we can also discuss other things no? I'm saying that Dirk can hit pretty amazing clutch shots, in my honest opinion Dirk is more clutch than Tim Duncan, yes you can all get this thread off topic and bring up the fact that Duncan has 4 championships thanks to good teammates and an amazing coach but that will just further prove the well known fact that when you try to have a decent discussion with a spurs fan that they can't win they just simply try to shoot you down by bringing up the 4 rings.

Are you really surprised that upon going out of your way to ask people not to bring up rings, that people would go out of their way to bring up rings. And it's a silly comparison anyways. They have totally different games. Just let Dirk have his night and enjoy it, but to immediately celebrate it by making TD comparisons is to set yourself up for a big bowl of fail.

I'm not really surprised I kind of expected this reaction, after all this is a spurs message board; I think that a big bowl of fail is different than posting a comparison between two players that are both superstars, both MVP's, but one just happens to play in a team that is managed well and has good players which will lead to a championship(s), however it is now well documented that you can't have a smart discussion with blind Spurs homers like most of you seem to be.

I guess that 06 team didn't get to the Finals then follow it up with a 67-15 season. No bro, you're the blind homer here. Mavericks had a great team and the personnel wilted under the pressure without strong leadership on the court. You can't blame management who made all the right decisions up until the Mavericks' players choked it all away against GS. If they win that series, there's a decent chance they get back to the Finals, because another SA-DAL series could have gone either way. That'd mean you could have swept the Cavaliers. Instead, we have today's predicament.

Dirk has been clutch during the playoffs and during the regular season throughout his career but there have also been times during the playoffs and regular season where he's invisible and scared to take over and be the leader. Dirk was not clutch in the playoff series against the Heat and Warriors but he came up big against the Spurs and Suns in 2006.
Duncan doesn't have to make clutch jumpers with dudes hounding him because he keeps his team out of situations where they need him to.

Avery outcoached Pop in the 06 series bro, what delusional world do you live in that the 06 series where your team beat the Spurs never happened? That team was good enough to get back to the Finals the very next season had they not fucked up against GS.

Duncan gets mugged 1,000x more than the Amundson, JRich, Barnes, Hill group the Suns were throwing against Dirk. He also wasn't "getting mugged" when he hit those shots because they were simply incredibly well-defended and difficult-ass shots. The ones where he baited the Suns on a pump-fake or pushed on a drive, he was heading to the line.

Again, if we're gonna bring championships into the arguments, Dirk won one in 2006. It just isn't official.
But alas, Dirk's playoff shortcomings are heavily exaggerated. People just wanna rag on him for the Game 6 dud he laid against GS, yet the only reason there was a Game 6 was because of Dirk's brilliance down the stretch in Game 5.
Again, Dirk deserves criticism for the Game 6 performance, but one game shouldn't define whether a player is clutch or not. It was just a bothersome defensive scheme from the Warriors, a bad game for Dirk, and the Warriors hitting a shitload of fluke ass threes in concession in the 3rd quarter, in particular Jackson.
As for the Finals, Dirk had a very good Game 6 but had trouble down the stretch of Game 6. But I'll give him a pass because of the circumstances, Zo playing physical defense and getting away with it while breathing on D-Whistle mandated 2 free throws.
And what about his Game 5 shot over Shaq? That's clutch as hell, but again forgotten due to the whistles deciding D-Whistle the primadonna wheelchair bitch who doesn't deserve his ring is more marketable than our beloved unconventional German PF. Yeah Dirk shot 7-20 that game, but D-Whistle shot under 40% himself.
As for Dirk's invisibility at times, I don't think it's due to mentality more so than his style. He's not a perimeter player that can break down defenses like Whistle the bitch, Kobe, and Lebron... and he's not a low post player who can get high % shots like Duncan, Shaq, etc.
This is why there's a perception that he vanishes from games at times. I don't believe it has anything to do with mentality. Most of us aren't psychologists though, we can't really tell whether he's scared or it's just his style.
Maybe he isn't a batman in this league on a championship team, in fact he isn't (except for 2006)... but that doesn't mean he isn't clutch.
God bless our beloved Dirk.

Free throws, fucking free throws?
Duncan missed some crucial FT's against the Lakers last year, I suppose he isn't clutch either?
Oh but they weren't at the end of the game?
What difference does it make whether a FT is made or missed in the 7th minute, 23th minute, or final minute?
Just because it's a crucial moment doesn't mean a great player is supposed to make 100% of his FT's. Dirk makes 90 %, misses 10%, it just so happens that one FT didn't go in.
That's the exception, not the rule with Dirk. Or else the Mavs wouldn't have been in the Finals because he would've missed down the stretch FT's against the Spurs in Games 3 and 7.
But again, the Cheat shouldn't have been in that position in games 3, 5, and 6.

I watched the game, and I'm fairly sure that Dirk didn't go toward the rim more than once. It's really hard to keep a straight face when someone complains about how he got beat on when he's shot about 40 fade away jumpers in the last two games. Yeah, good for the Mavs that they went in; he's on a hot streak lately, but the fact that he whines to the refs every time he takes a shot doesn't mean he's getting beat up by the defense. The Dirk that's scored really well the last week or so is a far fucking cry from the MVP that really went aggressively toward the rim, posted up like a demon and led his team to the finals and a 67 win season.
And kudos to him for hitting what was a big dagger three, when his team was really looking like they were about to just roll over like a a big dead fish and give the game back to the Blazers.

It's true, Dirk goes much less to the rim, eventhough I think his jumper has improved if you can believe that. He makes off balance jumpers even more easily than he used to.
The problem though is that I think Dirk has lost some of his athleticism and especially his legs are a bit weaker than they used to. Maybe his many ankle injuries are taking a toll on him. The problem is that Dirk simply can't finish around the rim like he used to, and he never was great at that to begin with.
That is why the Mavs now more than ever needed to get a true slasher that gets to the rim, and yet again failed to do so. However this is another topic.

exactly, Dirk relys on his mid-range jumpers more than he has ever done because his jumpers now are the most efficient way to score. As a result of loseing athletism due to age and injuries, Dirk has almost given up attacking the rim which requires quickness. Besides Dirk also has abandoned his 3 pointers as he cannot jump as high as he used to do. but Dirk still averages over 25pts per game and his other stats are also pretty brilliant.
Mavs need a decent center more urgently than a slasher IMHO. our team has already got plenty of slashers like Josh and Jet who are also pretty good at shooting, and Wright is also capable to make some tides in the 3 second zone. what we need most is a decent center who can at least grab more rebounds than kidd does. Now it's rumored that shaq is crying for a buy-out in order to get his 5th ring before retiring, but most of the title contenders are not lacking in a good center except our team, so the most possible destination for shaq is Dallas. I hope Donnie Nelson will be smart enough for one second to sign shaq and continue to suck as bad as he wants.

Instead, we have today's predicament.
Moreover, we had it in hand to avoid GS. Avery rested his best players in the second last (?) game of the season against GS. GS needed to win, otherwise the Clips would have sealed their spot. I still don't get it why Avery took the risk to face GS, although we lost all games against them that season. 15 losses during the whole season and 3 of them against GS... I think 10 games before the season ended, the Clips had a 7 or 8 game advantage against GS. We had in our hands to close it out and face the Clips (which we swept I think), but no... GS made a 10-0 or 9-1 run ion the end and the rest is history...

RonMexico 2007 version is back and his vagina lips are flapping as wildy as ever.
What? He was nailing some terrific and difficult shots to put the game away in the 4th, but he wasn't "getting mugged." When he was fouled, he went to the line. I'm not even bringing up the clean Shaq strip, because I'm tired of defending this Suns team.

You can say Dirk is clutch if thats what you think. But Bring Duncan into the equation and you are asking for it. Trying to say Duncan is not clutch? :wow
Also wouldn't Duncan get banged around alot more considering he plays closer to the basket? Dirk shoots his finesse shots.
i think his focus was to rile up overly-sensitive spurs fans like yourself.

Well how am I supposed to know that a Mav fan is trying to get a rise out of us or is just that dumb?
And you are giving him too much credit thinking that I am getting riled up. I'm just stating my opinion.

If by 'Clutch' you mean, 'Sucker of Cocks', then I fully agree. He IS clutch.

Yes, by far. You make Luis and da_suns_fan look like FromWayDownTown and baselinebum in comparison.

you should of figured out how by now!?
Again, if we're gonna bring championships into the arguments, Dirk won one in 2006. It just isn't official.
But alas, Dirk's playoff shortcomings are heavily exaggerated. People just wanna rag on him for the Game 6 dud he laid against GS, yet the only reason there was a Game 6 was because of Dirk's brilliance down the stretch in Game 5.
Again, Dirk deserves criticism for the Game 6 performance, but one game shouldn't define whether a player is clutch or not. It was just a bothersome defensive scheme from the Warriors, a bad game for Dirk, and the Warriors hitting a shitload of fluke ass threes in concession in the 3rd quarter, in particular Jackson.
As for the Finals, Dirk had a very good Game 6 but had trouble down the stretch of Game 6. But I'll give him a pass because of the circumstances, Zo playing physical defense and getting away with it while breathing on D-Whistle mandated 2 free throws.
And what about his Game 5 shot over Shaq? That's clutch as hell, but again forgotten due to the whistles deciding D-Whistle the primadonna wheelchair bitch who doesn't deserve his ring is more marketable than our beloved unconventional German PF. Yeah Dirk shot 7-20 that game, but D-Whistle shot under 40% himself.
As for Dirk's invisibility at times, I don't think it's due to mentality more so than his style. He's not a perimeter player that can break down defenses like Whistle the bitch, Kobe, and Lebron... and he's not a low post player who can get high % shots like Duncan, Shaq, etc.
This is why there's a perception that he vanishes from games at times. I don't believe it has anything to do with mentality. Most of us aren't psychologists though, we can't really tell whether he's scared or it's just his style.
Maybe he isn't a batman in this league on a championship team, in fact he isn't (except for 2006)... but that doesn't mean he isn't clutch.
God bless our beloved Dirk.
i agree the offciating was horrendous, but comeon, losing 4 games in a row?

The officials can very easily cause a team to lose 4 games in a row.
I mean we're not talking about the Mavs getting thoroughly outplayed 4 games in a row.
We're talking about games 3, 5, and 6 being decided by 2 points, 1 point, and 3 points. Questionable, biased officiating in extremely tight games.
The only inexcusable loss is the dud the beloved Mavs laid in game 4, but it's a 7 game series, a team can lay a dud here and there... just as the Cheat laid one in game 2.
The Heat's margin of victory for the series? 1 point per game.
The refs cost our beloved Dirk a title :(
But alas, we're over it, but it doesn't mean we can't weep about it.
God bless our beloved Dirk.
