This tourney will come down to whoever Bump likes best.
Yes boston needed a player more like KG, but that doesn't mean he's better than Dirk.

that comment was in response to those who said dirk on that team would have won the ring.
as for the comparison, thats why we have it right? KG is a two way player. his offense is better than people give him credit for. he's got an unblockable midrange fade, can absolutely finish at the rim, and is always in the running for DPOY. dirk's offensive production can be replaced by alot of players in the leauge. only a handful of players can play D like garnett.
or
Dirk is a pussy ass . What kind of 7-footer shoots jumpers all the time?
Look at this: the "franchise player" was punked by a no-name loser power forward. Dirk probably cried to his ugly criminal girlfriend after that incident.
Garnett?
This Lakerfan knows the , as KG was a big reason his team got beat into the ground in '08.
Dirk *may* be a better true scorer, but that's where the debate ends. KG has him bested in every other category. He's not the outside player Dirk is, but has many of his own fakes and fadeaways to work with as well. And inside, its a No Contest.
KG is older and is coming off a major knee injury.
KG for me. bag or not, I think he is the better player.
+1,000,000 and lock the thread.
KG had Paul Pierce and Ray Allen.
Dirk had Josh Howard and Jason Terry.
You tell me who's better.
I'd still pick him over Dirk.
Kevin Garnett, obviously. Dirk has no rings, and he blew his chance to get one by letting Dwyane Wade on him.
And he takes his frustration out on something that can't fight back, because Dirk wouldn't win a fight against Candace Parker, if his life depended on it.
Coming off an injury it has to be Dirk ...thi spoll really is not fair to be honest. 2-5 years ago KG everyday ...even though dirk is a great player ...now? Dirk.
Guess you're not interested in winning games, then.
all im saying is when we play the celts, im def nervous because of KG. when we play the mavs, i expect it to be a cake walk. no offense mavs fans just how i feel pregame.
121-63. What would you know about getting close to winning a championship?
Your post speaks for itself; you don't know much about basketball. Dirk's performance in the Finals was more than adequate. Miami > Dallas. Dirk took a giant dump on your team last year but 07-08 New Orleans > 07-08 Dallas. You win and lose as a team.
I'm interested in winning championships.
Then in that case I'll take the franchise player who isn't coming off a major knee injury and is two years younger.
If we argue about who has the best career this thread will be boring. There will be no doubt that KG >> Dirk
Age doesn't matter we're talking for the next season only.
why? coz he went far in the playoffs two seasons?
nah. Allen and Pierce needed that defensive presence, which Dirk is not, never has been, and self-convincing you've done has no affect on me.
It wasn't scoring that won the 08 banner, it was defense. Just like the refs screwing the spurs is the reason defense didn't win in 06 like the other years around it.
btw, Dirk is one of the all-time biggest losers if you ask me. Guy never complains or anything, just takes losing as the #1 option like its no big deal. POW right in the kisser, over and over again.
KG could only get past the first round of the playoffs when he had a bang-up supporting cast beside him (Cassell/Sprewell 04, Allen/Pierce 08). Dirk hasn't exactly been playing with D-League stiffs his entire career, but he did drag a team with Jason Terry and Josh Howard as his two best sidekicks within an inch of a le. I'm pretty sure Dirk would have a ring too if he had the opportunity to go to war with Paul Pierce and Ray Allen.
Pierce/Allen >>>>>> Jet/Josh.
Dirk's career > KG's career.
If you're going by the hardware argument, then Jason Kapono and Michael Doleac > Dirk.
Right now, Dirk just played a whole season. Dirk > Garnett.
4-1, got. Why don't you stop living vicariously through other teams?
I know that missing potential game tying free throws won't get one's team a championship.
Dirk's performance in the Finals is the perfect example of how not to win a championship.
No, you mean, Dwyane Wade > Dallas. Your team managed to lose four games straight after blowing a ten point fourth quarter lead in Game 3. It just goes to show that the Mavericks have no heart.
And Chris Paul almost had a quadruple double playing the Mavericks and made an even bigger fool out of the JET.
08-09 New Orleans > 08-09 Dallas. It took injuries to multiple starters so your Mavericks could get just one more win.
And the team captain is responsible for choking in the biggest moment of his career.
Kendrick Perkins is just as good, if not a better defender, than Erick Dampier. If Dirk can come within an inch of a le with Erick Dampier starting alongside him, I'm pretty sure a supporting cast of Allen/Pierce/Perkins would be no different.
It wasn't scoring that won the 08 banner, it was defense. Just like the refs screwing the spurs is the reason defense didn't win in 06 like the other years around it.Has years of raping your team not taught you anything? It's one thing when some dip Hornets fan s on Dirk, but you would think a Spurs fan would know better. Guess not.btw, Dirk is one of the all-time biggest losers if you ask me. Guy never complains or anything, just takes losing as the #1 option like its no big deal. POW right in the kisser, over and over again.
