mavs run last yr was more impressive. Dirk carried kidds and marions corpse, a crippled butler, and bums to the championship. The only help he had was chandler and terry.

Lets slow down, those Pistons teams should not be held to the same esteem a the Celtics and Lakers. Those Pistons teams started winning when the Celtics and Lakers were in decline. Thats not a diss, its a fact.


Now Zeke getting kicked out, first it was because he wanted every player to eat well instead of just the superstars. A lot of those players never forgave him for that. Thoes Pistons teams were not free flowing and fun teams like the Celtics, Lakers, and even the Sixers were. They ushered a change into the horrible 90s where physical ball went into goon ball (altho the Pistons were never that bad). He and Jordan did not get along, which helped further things as the NBA was making Jordan the new golden boy. And then the Magic is gay rumors that people accuse Zeke of starting.

:rudy:

Durant ain't got teammates? Nobody wins on their own; leaders/best players get credit, it is what it is.

durant has 2 great teammates, westbrook and harden.


dirk had no great teammates. had to carry the team by himself

By himself ? woah calm down there killer Marion didn't outmuscle and out hustle lebron and Kd? Jt and barea didn't shyt on every team? Tyson didn't lock down the paint and rebound so dirk could float in the perimeter? Dswag didn't lock down the perimeter ? Y'all need to stop that shyt.

Jason terry played out of his mind the whole playoffs
His performance was more impressive than dirks
I think dirk was hyped he did his thing but it was overrated

Nope. Just because you don't play with another All Star doesn't mean you don't have good or great teammates. As a team the Mavericks fit perfectly.

Ok. Dirk has good teammates that fulfill very vital and specific roles. That much can't be denied. But Dallas was pretty much dead until Jason Terry managed to man up and play like a legit second option and Miami's lack of heart decided to show itself. It was a real come from behind series win for the Mavs.

OKC has a three man combo of Durant, Russ and Harden which is greater than whatever combo of players the Mavs could roll out on the court. Like dude stated earlier Westbrook was the one who pretty much carried this squad against the Lakeshow. Durant has more guys to depend on when a basket is needed. He didn't carry this squad like people are stating.

Yea his performance was dope as fukk with the way he defeated 2 superstars & a top 5 PF in the finals, and took out Bean. But, the Thunder weren't on that level that they are on now imo and the Blazers didn't have an All Star or a HOF'r. But, Dirk's performance was crazy as fukk, especially game 2 against the Heat at Miami was crazy as fukk the way he brought them back to win that game. so yea I'm in the moment for the most part, but Dirk's performance in that playoffs might have been the best performance of the 2000 decade.

Blazers didn't have an All Star??? So Lamarcus is just another guy now?
