That's about it.
[Quote by confined] never start a topic again, especially when it's something as stupid as this...there are 4 players better than dirk in the nba....TD, lebron, kobe, and wade ( nash is a big maybe ) ...you obviously only started this topic to start more senseless arguements on this board.
...yeah, whatever.
yes, carmelo is much better talent-wise than dirk. name a player who can shut down carmelo anthony ? i can name several who can make dirk their . while melo is not a great defensive player, hes still a better defender than dirk, and much more clutch.
dirk is a great player, but some of you really overrate the guy.
I'm going to name 10 players taller than Dirk:
1. Yao Ming
2. Zydrunas Ilgauskas
3. Shaquille O'Neal
4. Dikembe Mutombo
5. Jerome James
6. Jake Tsakalidas
7. Joel Pryzbilla
8. Tyson Chandler
9. Darko Milicic
10. Martynus Andriuskevicius
Is that the actual order you got them as?
Well, IMO, Wade is the best player in the NBA.
The other 4 are all debatable as to their postion to me, but if I had to pick a spot, thats where I have them. So yes, that is the actual order I have them as, for now.
So is Michael Redd.
Top ten: Duncan, Kobe, Wade, Nash, Dirk (top five), LeBron, Melo, Arenas, Shaq, Garnett .
I cant believe how many people dont mention Yao at all.
People are naming Shaq (which is ridiculous btw), but no one lists the best center in the league?
Yao>>>>>>Dirk
As a GM, I'd only rather have Yao on account of him being 4 years younger. Today I'd rather have Dirk.
Not even so much that, but people here naming guys like Redd, Arenas, Carter and Shaq as better players, but no one mentions a 7-6 center that averaged 25, 9 and 2 blocks? Yao is top 5 imo
Yeah, Yao is better than those guys listed, and he will probably overtake Dirk within the next 2-3 years. Lots of diarrhea in this thread.
LeBron James (See Shoe Contract...)
Tim Duncan/Tony Parker (See NBA les...)
Steve Nash
Kobe Bryant (Selfish, can't attract any MAJOR star to play with him...)
Dirk Nowitzski
Shaq/Wade
Kevin Garnett (Getting old & over paid)..
Until Dirk proves he has some heart, I would not rank him above 8. Golden State proved Dirk does not have the heart in him to be a great player. You have to be hard as steel. Dirk is soft as tortillas. You can rip through him like kleenex.
funny to hear that from a Spurs fan.
What? Am I lying? Making up? Dirk IS soft, whether I am a Spurs fan or not.
If I was on the playground, I would pick the fat kid that always gets picked last before I ever picked Dirk to be on my team.
Too bad Manu couldn't rip through Dirk's kleenex exterior and force him to miss that lay in, eh?
Then you'd lose repeatedly, blind homer.
for all my criticism of Dirk, people are ing stupid to say he's soft. The guy plays on two sprained ankles basically all year long, he's gotten his teeth knocked out (and in that game he STILL dropped 30...on the Spurs of all teams), and despite his "flopping" he's taken alot of hard shots over the years and gotten up from all of them.
Choker, yes. Soft, not by a ing longshot.
What mono said, tough guy.
You lose anyways with Dirk on your team.
To Golden State and Miami, yes. San Antonio, not so much.
