Dirk staaaaaaaaaaaaacked
Dirk needs 11 points to jump Bird on the all-time scoring list. I am in no means comparing the two, as I would take a prime Bird over a prime Dirk 8 days out of the week. But it's a cool milestone.
Dirk staaaaaaaaaaaaacked
All Dirk Noringski jokes aside, good on the big German.
Baller tbh
8-21 for a scary 38%
Larry would not have choked this bad tonight
if he played all those years like hes played this year it makes you wonder if he might have jewelry
@ hater's ass pains
u mad bro?
How many MVP awards did Erik get? 1 or 2? Can't remember
nah man. I was rooting for the mavs and Dirk gone piss me off![]()
Agreed on both counts. Must be surreal to bury a legend (particularly one you've been compared to forever, whether correctly or otherwise) like Bird's numbers when you yourself appear to have so much left in the tank. Anyway, good on him.
Dirk Nowitzki is not as good as Larry Bird. Not even close tbh.
Bird's also better than Kobe though, so laker fan can calm down.
I actually agree.
Bird is better than Kobe.
Larry has bling, Dirk does not. So until then....Bird>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Dirk.
Again, I wasn't comparing the two. I'm trying to keep the Dirk vs Bird who's better "debate" out of the thread. It was just about Dirk passing him on the scoring list, that's all.![]()
Basketball is not a one man game...
For the sake of perspective, it's worth mentioning that Dirk didn't log a triple double until 2008, after 10 yrs in the league. Bird is 5th all-time with 56, behind Wilt, Kidd, Magic, and Oscar Robertson, in that order.
And yeah, I guess there is the issue of the rings.
there's some mad people over this for some odd reason.
people forget Bird had a relatively short run, like maybe 10 or so big seasons and retired after only 13.
Dirt is already in his 13th of which 11 were big scoring and due to the nature of his game probably has a good 3 solid scoring years left.
I'd take Dirk over Larry.
As much as I hate the Maver s owner, and a few players like the failplane bag Terry, Dirk is a class act and a of a player. I'd actually have to ponder it for quite some time if there was an opportunity to trade Duncan for Dirk straight up at this point. Dirk is a great scorer but Tim still whoops that ass in the all around game.
Bird is heads and shoulders a better compe or than Dirk. However, you also have to remember that Bird played with McHale and Parish.
i doubt mavfans want your backhanded compliments or your overload of calories, tbh.
lmao comparing dirk to someone who averaged a tripple double in the finals
