    Dirk really killed that year
    -Destroyed KD and Russ
    -Swept Kobe and Pau Gasol
    -Beat D Wade, Lebron, and Chris Bosh(made him disappear)

      Slightly Biased Kevin Durant Fan Name me another team that had to defeat 3 all time great teams in a playoff run.Facing Kd (Top 15 ever) Russ (top 20),Kobe Bryant (Top 12) Pau Gasol (Top 50), LeBron James (Top 2) Dwayne Wade (Top 15) Chris Bosh (Top 50 ish)
      This is the best overall playoff run.Im a Spurs fan btw.

      agreed Dirk is the most underrated superstar ever. This man won a title with no all stars on his team which was only done my the Dream before him. Plus he raped a Super Team with 3 All Stars in their prime and Bosh, Wade and James were all super stars on their previous teams. Nobody will ever achieve anything like that.

      Not sure why you guys think it was ONLY role players on the team. They obviously weren't a super team, but were a very good all around team. Dirk even struggled in the last game. Dirk had an amazing series and led the team, but it wasn't really just him vs the heat like people like to say.

    • @Fick45
      @Fick45 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      He was the only all-star on a team of 30+ year olds and they were also missing Caron Butler who was arguably their second best player before going down with an injury, role players stepped up but this was Dirk vs Heat all the way. Without Dirk the mavs win 1 game max, there were only 3 players on that team that averaged double figures in points that series, so cut it out bruh, Dirk carried.

      @@naufalabrarazry6740 you guys dont get it. This was lebrons first finals with not only some "real" help, but in a superteam altogether. Yet Lebron only avged 18 points during the series and would disappear in the fourth quarter when it mattered the most. That never happed to Jordan. His lowest avg ppg in a final series was 27.3 and his next lowest was 31. He never disappeared the way Lebron did

      So did that Warriors series put him back in it? You know, the one where he carried his team to overcome a 3-1 finals deficit to beat the highest winning % team in NBA history? He dethroned a dynasty that would be looking at 4 straight chips without LeBron to stop them. I don't think he's better than Jordan, but top 5 certainly.
