Dirk would make a great complementary star player. Pair him up with a legit low post presence and DAL would have won at least two rings by now. A new PG was not what they needed, they needed an interior scorer to throw the ball into to get easy buckets when the jumpshots aren't falling.
The same criticism that gets heaped onto Dirk is the same criticism that Gasol faced in Memphis. The fact is both were on teams that didn't have the right makeup to win in the post season.
Dirk is not the type of guy who can just dominate games and takeover in the clutch time and again. But the whole "choker" label is completely overrated, if he was such a choker, the Mavs wouldnt be the good team that they are, they would be a .500 team, especially when you consider how no one else on that team can really deliver in crunchtime either. And their second option, howard, plays his best before halftime.
