Total bullshit that MVPau didn’t get ranked higher.

Also surprise wade didn’t rank higher.

Pretty good list

...except no 2011 Dirk

[140]

:lmao 2011 Dirk not in the list
:lmao diva at 15, did it account for ref help tbh?
:lmao BSPN per par

[lefty20]

Also surprise wade didn’t rank higher.

It was a team effort that fucked the Mavs in '06, refs worked just as hard D-Whistle did, tbh.

Didn't feel bad for the Mavs considering they wouldn't have beaten the Spurs that year if it wasn't for the refs. The refs literally won them games 3 and 4 against the Spurs.

surprised dirk didnt make the list. he gets the 1.5 "bonus" points for having won a championship and finals MVP... otherwise it's entirely based on WARP. didnt realize he scored that low. his series against the lakers and thunder were fuckin awesome. dont remember too much about his first round performance, and i remember he actually didnt shoot that well overall in the finals. that had a lot more to do with lebron shitting the bed

Dirk deserves to be higher. But that was a fun series to watch just to see the Heatles take their initial lumps.

Oh don't get me wrong. I was fully rooting for the Heat and enjoyed every second of watching the refs turn on the Mavs. Just thought I'd input my 2 cents on my D-Wade isn't on that list.

It's debatable that Dirk's 2011 run isn't somewhere in the Top 10. If it doesn't show up in the Top 50, than the problem is the methodology and not the run.

I agree it was amazing but these lists are always based off whatever metric/criteria the writer prefers. We all saw 2011. best pure shooting exhibition I have ever seen night-in, night out ...

Backhanded defense of Kobe's 21st :lol

[DMC]

Oh shit, my bad. Lebron's 2018 performance pushed Kobe to 22 :lol

[HarlemHeat37]

2001 Kobe > 2009 IMO
