Dirk Bird?:dunno:
If I told you 15 years ago that a 7ft. German who:
Averages no more than 5 dunks per year.
Doesn't play good defense.
Doesn't block shots.
Doesn't work well off the low block.
Doesn't rebound.
Doesn't bang or get physical.
is the best player in these playoffs, won MVP, and is a first-ballot HOFer... you'd probably try to have me committed. Dirk is basketball wonder and is one of a few players ever whose skill cannot be properly taught.
Hard to believe he came from such non-athletic parents. His dad was a shoe salesman and his mom worked on the railroad.
LeBron James has to be having far more fun this year. Last 2 years in Cleveland his teamates just stood and watched him do his work, this year his teamates are actually playing basketball with him
Total choke job by my Bulls. Rose is not looking good in these late game situations, the lack of consistent scoring is killing Chicago. I am not happy at all.
