Dallas when Dirk won MVP?
During the Duncan era: 2014 Spurs, 2011 Bulls, 2010 Cavs, 2006 Mavs, 2003 Spurs
Am I seeing a trend here? :wowQuote:

If you're going to MVP, 2014 Spurs and 2006 Mavs didn't have MVP winners (Dirk won in '07). I think the other teams did.Quote:

Was there another all-star on those Lebron/Cavaliers 1.0 teams because they cracked 60 wins a couple of times and were basically a one man band.
I know dude. Thanks. :lolQuote:

I think that the 1998 Jazz and bulls both won 60+ games and only had 1 all-star.Quote:

it's unfortunate, that stupid article about Kawhi being a negative on the floor and his on/off numbers not being close to Westbrook/Harden along with their narratives are going to hurt him in the MVP consideration as well as the DPOY award. we all know Kawhi is the MVP and spurs would be trash without him
^^I don't think anybody cares about that article IMO:lol
The thing that hurts Kawhi is that he's competing against the aura of "Pop's system", which began in the 2013 Finals..most people no longer see him as a "system player", but you still see plenty of "imagine X player with Popovich instead"..
you are right. Pippen only played 44 games that regular season.Quote:

I hear that a lot and it's just stupid. Players are where they are. You can't knock a player based off of hypotheticals. You have to evaluate what you see. I see a guy who is the best defender in the league and averaging nearly 26 a game.Quote:

With DickJ it was mental tbh,he came from the Nets where he was the "Man" I think Timmy intimidated the hell out of him and instead of mentally bucking up and getting
with the program,he folded
Pretty sure Timmy had Patfo run him out.Never seen Timmy mess with a former team mate like he did with DickJ after he was traded,you could tell Tim had zero respect for him
