Dirk still not Top 10

[wasBlackHawkDown]

Okay I havent been here much lately, but I just want to point out Dirk's meteoric collapse. JT carried that team in the finals. Dirk does this every year when the going get tough Dirk turns to crap.

What is the difference between your top 10 guy Elton Brand and Dirk in terms of the results they acheive in the NBA?

[wasBlackHawkDown]

Elton Brand is tough defender, and hard nosed player with constent numbers. He is always in a position were he has to carry his sorry teammates versus Dirk who is surrounded by qaulity players who have to carry him when times get tough.

And I still state I hate 7'footers that think they are point gaurds.

oh my god you are such a loser.

Yeah Terry's 7/25 shooting really lifted the Mavs in game 6

I guess he steps up when it matters

I understand that they play different styles and you hate the style Dirk plays.

But how does Elton Brand warrant top 10 status when he always is knocked out earlier in the playoffs and when he had similar talent this season and got knocked off earlier yet again? Also, prior to the finals you have to admit Dirk was better in the playoffs than Brand this season.
