Gasol has Nowitzki beat on everything, I think it's fair to say that Pau is a better player than Dirk. What do you think?
If Dirk actually had a real back to the basket game it would be close. Alas.
Dirk plays like a 7foot shooting guard. Pau plays like a PF/C.
Don't forget to vote people, we need to establish who the better player is, tbh.
Dirk stats look like the stats of a shooting guard, imho. less than 50% shooting, less than 8 rbds per game, barely a block per game, etc.
Votes made after the 31st of August will not be taken into consideration.
Except in efficiency, assisting, rebounding, blocking and winning.
Gasol's a better player now then Dirk. But Dirk's still got the ability to take over games and make himself pretty unstoppable on a given night. When he's on, he's on.
How many wins did Gasol get as the number one guy again?
A lot.
But fewer than Dirk, right?
they both suck... why don't you select some better players assholes
Dirk has had a lot more time and help as the number one guy.
Thats like comparing Kobe Bryant to Joe Johnson.
Senseless.
hey sonic... you
I would say based on last year, Pau had a better season and performed better in the playoffs. Pau can still be a vagina. But he's become a really great player. I think he's become a better overall player than Dirk. But, it does help that he has Kobe taking a lot of pressure off of him with defenses focusing their attention to Kobe before they do on Pau. Dirk remains the main focus of opposing defenses. Doesn't excuse Dirk not maintaining a higher level of rebounding. I think that is something he should be better at. As a go-to guy on a team, Dirk still edges Pau. But Pau is a more well rounded player.
Based on last year, I'd give it to Pau.

Which, of course, is irrelevant when you claim that Gasol is the better winner.
Or maybe you're claiming that Gasol is a better winner because of the two championships. In that case, he had Kobe Bryant on his team, so that doesn't mean much.
Not really
Kobe:
pts per FG attempt: 1.2
FG%: 456
assts: 5.0
rbds: 5.4
blks: 0.3
stls: 1.5
MPG: 38.8
5 NBA championships
Johnson:
pts per FG attempt: 1.1
FG%: 458
assts: 4.9
rbds: 4.7
blks: 0.1
stls: 1.1
MPG: 38
No NBA championships
Kobe has got Johnson beat on every stat you said. No match.
if gasol was never included in that collusion this discussion wouldn't be happening. ... gasol wouldn't even be mentioned at all, ever!
Then Sonic is right, the comparison is senseless Gasol is Kobe and Nowitzki is Johnson.
