Nice try but seeing your love of revisionist history, I can understand why you'd try this defense. .
lmao
"Ooh, I'm sorry Earl Watson, am I in your way? Don't mind me, it's not like I was trying to get set defensively or properly clog the lane. Can I get you some coffee or a soft drink, anything to make you more comfortable? If there's anything you need, just let me know."
That pic's hilarious!

Is a Walden reference too obvious for DannyB? let's see!
Stop comparing a glorified role player like Marion to one of the top players in the league. It's a bit ridiculous. You can call Dirk whatever you want but he's still led his team farther than anyone on S0ns.
, if it wasn't for the refs, the '93 S0ns would be labeled as the greatest choke artists in NBA history. Every real NBA fan knows LA had 'em beat. Sonics should have been in the Finals that year.
Nice try at baiting me.
An "elite" player is "consistent." An "inconsistent" player would not be "elite."
Calling someone a "choker" is a value judgment. Basically, one is saying that a particular player is somehow deficient in character, compe ive drive, or ability to handle pressure. In the GS-Mavs series, Nowitzki was forced to play out of position and in a different style. He failed. I don't see this as an indictment of his character.
Is Dirk inconsistent? Again, it's not a fair question, based on that particular series. When we consider both playoff collapses, it may be appropriate to question his consistency. It's still a little early to tell.
Marion is a non-en y when Bowen guards him. To be fair to him, there are several players that have been Bowened over the years. I suppose he is consistent in that he cannot create his own offense when he is closely guarded. I would say that a truly elite player would not be shut down by single coverage.
Nope. Only when I deal with your sorry ass.
You're an idiot Johnny. I'm gonna save that quote as an example to all my friends of how stupid Spurs fans are. "Marion's a glorified role player."
why is that? the pic IS hilarious. Shows what a stupid pussy Amare is. He can do pushups on the court but God forbid he play some defense.
Baiting you? Dude, you're a total . I asked you a simple question and you spun off some long-winded bull response to explain to me why my question wasn't proper or something.
Right. You find one picture of Amare stepping out of the way and suddenly he doesn't play any defense ever. I mean, the context, right? He might have had 5 fouls or something, but for you that picture is the ENTIRE story, right?
After having to wade through the logic and wisdom of "DannyB," it makes me want to punch Vinny Del Negro in the face if I ever see him in person.
No, I figured that out from 82 regular season games & the playoffs. repeated for the past few years. He played as much defense last year as he did the year before sitting on the couch with a bad knee.
Funny you should mention that. I already wanted to punch Del Negro before this. You can imagine how I feel now...
Hey, Shawn Marion is better than Dirk, right?
I quit. You clearly have me at a disadvantage, since you don't bother to comprehend what I write. In contrast, I actually bother to read your syphillitic ramblings, which just makes me sad...
He must be da_suns_fan's re ed friend from arizona sports fans or phxsuns.net...same phenomenon as a somewhat decent girl recruiting her ugly gal pals for a night of cruising for guys.
To say an NBA player plays no defense is re ed. Some players are better than others, but they all play defense. Just because a guy doesn't fit into the Bruce Bowen mould doesn't make him a worthless player. You make it sound like the guy doesn't ever even try, which is either exaggeration, or just plain stupid.
he doesn't
it isn't
Now that is an example of baiting, my friend. Take notes Reggie Miller.
To answer you question, no. I don't think so. I would not say Marion is better than Dirk. I think they are both elite players. I would say both of those guys are in the top 10 or 15 overall players in the league. That's probably why each of them routinely make the All-Star team, the All-NBA teams, and both usually receive MVP votes.
It's not that he doesn't try, it's that it's not near the priority as a rim-rattling dunk to get on SportsCenter. When he does bother to put forth effort on defense, he swings for the fences by always going for the block instead of getting set properly. He's a pretty ty defender, and why it's comical that the Suns trolls compare him to Duncan.
Since I am a name-dropping , there is only way to respond to that:
"A palpable hit!"
"A touch, a touch! I do confess I fear I breathe my last..."
I could've been fooled with 3+ pages of your knobgobbling him.
Oh, that's way too pedestrian and low-brow for DannyB.
Syphillitic ramblings.
Your writing is tedious and idiotic. I asked if you considered Dirk an elite player, and you acted like I was trying to trick you into confessing that you killed Nicole Simpson. You are a evasive .
