Jackson has 40-20 vision

If they would have won game 3, they would have won the series - but you are technically correct, so lets look at Dirk's 4th quarter offense in game 6:

Shooting: 0-4 from the floor - 2 points total (free throws).

There is a reason that Dirk is labeled a choker (I didn't make it up):
Dirk's 2006 finals shooting stats in the last 4 games:
1. Game 3 - last 6 1/2 minutes 4th quarter meltdown (wen Dallas was up by 13) - 0-1 shooting in last 6 1/2 minutes.
2. Game 4 - 4th quarter - 0-1 shooting
3. Game 5 - Overtime - 1-3 shooting
2. Game 6 - 4th quarter - 0-4 shooting

So I guess Dirk "deer in the headlights" Nowitzki "showed up" in the finals, just not offensively in the end of the last 4 games - this is the worst "crunch time" performance of any "star" in NBA history - choke, choke, choke

You are a moron....bet you never played basketball before. Dirk is not a super athelete like other stars....he does everything that expected. If you watched the finals you'd know that the Heat were not gonna let him beat them.....sometimes shots dont fall big .

He's far from a choker....he's made plenty of big shots but bags such as yourself over-look it. Only one choking is you when you suck off Kobe

lol - Big shots in playoff games are the end of game shots (4th quarter or overtime).

In my "tell all" stats above, Dirk was a combined 1-9.

Since when is 1-9 "some of the time"? - thats almost all of the time (when it counted the most). Is that what is expected?

Unfortunately I did watch the finals (rooting for the Mavs) - too bad the Mavs and Dirk didn't have the "not gonna let them beat beat us" at ude like Miami did (especially at the end of games). I watched Dirk make shots earlier in the games, and disappear offensively at the end of the games.

I really like Dirk as a player - he just choked - why do you guys keep defending this guys performance in the 2006 finals? The losses and the end of game performances speak for themselves.

P.S. I have played basketball, and shooting j's when being guarded is really difficult (that's why I played point guard - I was always better at passing and defending than shooting.)

P.P.S - I have to get back to making another bag of money today (I am a database analyst) so no more posts from me (you'll have to throw insults at someone else).

The fact that you even listed Game 4 shows what a in idiot you are, when that game was never close to begin with. Also, winning game 3 would not have won the series. Winning 4 games does. All you have to do is look at the Boston Red Sox. Oh, and you had two #2's in your ty ass list.

In game 5, he had all kinds of huge plays at the end of the 4th, only to have it stolen away with the most bull call in NBA history.

In game six, he didn't shoot well. Not denying that, but he found other ways to contribute, such as rebounding, and drawing the double/triple teams and passing out. Don't forget that terrible turnover that Damp had when Dirk found him for a wide open dunk.

I can understand why people may say that Dirk is a choker, but thats only for people that don't look deeper into the whole picture. How many superstars EVER have won a championship without a legit superstar or a couple all-stars playing alongside them?

MJ/Pippen
Shaq/Kobe
Duncan/Robinson/Manu and Parker
Bird/McHale/Parish
Magic/Kareem/Worth

The list goes on...

Dirk never had another star to help take heat off of him, so teams were able to double and triple team him more consistently. No NBA player ever (not even Jordan) could win an entire playoff series when being doubled and tripled every ing play.

If you were truly watching the finals and truly rooting for the Mavs, you would have realized and admitted that there was some fishy ass going on with Miami and the zebras as well...

I believe teams that win 16 playoff games before they lose 13 playoff games have a great chance at winning an NBA le. In fact, I'd say a 100% chance.

...this thread is idiotic.

What are you, Stupid, Simple or Slow? You don't have to make assumptions on "this thread is idiotic", it's self explanatory, ! Why you found it necessary to post on a thread that you consider idiotic amazes me. Hit the stroll button and move on next time. Just because you're "Special" doesn't mean you have to post in threads you believe to be Idiotic.

If you perceive an article taken from the LA Times idiotic as a topic, get your ass to work. You can say that about 99% of all threads on this ing forum.

As for your 2 cents? You very much and have a great day!

[LakeShow]

why do you write like you think your tough or something? " " "of all the threads on this ing forum? " you" relax this is the internet buddy.

I write like I write. An insult is an insult, Idiot, , dumbass, stupid, its all the same. Why sugarcoat insults. I use none of those terms when speaking to those who use none of those terms.
