Pick the best right now: Tim vs Dirk

[rAm]

Kobe just tied Duncan's ring total

[Findog]

Actually, they 'zoned' Dirk up. He was NEVER triple teamed. Nice exaggeration. It's a popular scheme to throw at players. Post players don't get zoned up, that's common sense. And by your logic, if they're triple teaming Dirk, shouldn't he have had way more APG than Duncan? Especially if they were playing Duncan straight up the entire series, as you say. Which they weren't.

Dirk was magnificent in that series without putting up gaudy numbers. If you had watched the games, he made the correct decision just about every time. There's a reason JJ Barea, Brandon Bass and Josh Howard looked like the second coming of Magic, Worthy and Byron Scott and it's because of Dirk.

I don't care which player you say is better, the difference is very slight either way.

And yet duncan got owned 4-1 by dirk in the playoffs last year

Where were his scoring, leadership, defense and passing then?

Wrong!!

Head to head Dirk was the one who was owned!

[Findog]

So leadership doesn't count as who is better?

I take "leadership" into the equation, and I think it's a tossup as to who is better now.

Nowitzki hasn't done anything for his team even now.

That's one of the dumbest ing things I've ever read on this site. Yeah, Dirk is just another bum putting up #s like Zach Randolph.

Spurs fans just can't get over the fact they got owned fair and square by the mavs twice this decade. Dirk ran his nuts all over Duncan's face in 2006 - guess duncan's ring coulden't save him against dirk's ringless mug, huh?

You mean that series where Duncan averaged 32 points a game? I guess getting beat by the mavs twice is better than getting thrashed by the Steve Nash led suns two times in a row.

4-2 head2head, got.

Spurs fans shoulden't talk smack to their daddies, laker and mavs fans

[Findog]

pointless thread ...

pretty much, since people will start tearing down one to prop up the other. Stupid.

Who lost to Nash twice in a row?

EDIT: NVM I saw who you were talking to. I thought you meant the Mavs at first.

honestly i never understood it... why it "has" to be that way...

[BadOdor]

spurs team of the 2003-2007 decade, gots.

[TD4THREE]

4-2 head2head, got.

lol So I guess this means the suns are the lakers daddies?

[IronMexican]

I really don't like that either. It's like a Kobe vs MJ debate. It starts off as those two, then it becomes Drexler vs McGrady and people start knocking people from the different era's to boast about the player they are arguing for.

[TD4THREE]

Who lost to Nash twice in a row?

the lakers in 06 and 07

[Texas_Ranger]

why the are Lakers es in this thread. No one even mentioned the Lakers, but here they are... Go watch Kobe and jerk off you idiots.

[Texas_Ranger]

the lakers in 06 and 07

The Spurs defeated the Suns in 07

[rAm]

Dirk's clearly better now, but homers will cast their vote with silver and black glasses on.

Took his place on the all nba 1st team and send his ass packing. I think we know who's better.

These two posts are the only reason I responded to this thread, and the first one to "tear down" anything.

I didn't even vote in the poll because this argument has been rehashed so much even though the answer is so clear.

[dirk4mvp]

4 rings, got.

[BadOdor]

lol So I guess this means the suns are the lakers daddies?

Absolutely.

[IronMexican]

You can't really argue that the Suns didn't own the Lakers in the playoffs in 2006 and 2007.

I'm sure that kept you going for 6 pages

only spurs fans resort to ring smack when confronted by being owned by the mavs. Every other fan base realizes that when a team owns you the last 2 times you face it in the playoffs, that team is your daddy.

nah, your re ed responses along with other mav fans looking to "tear down one to prop up another" in order to justify why they are a fan of a team with no history did

Every other fan base? Are you the ing arbiter of all things basketball? The lakers realizing anything about their team not being the ing ?

Get the out of here.
