    It’s Dirks last game tonight. Time for @tinman to obsess over him because he used to be good.

    Funny thing my first name is actually Mitchell but I can’t confirm that my last name is Robinson but I am 6’” on Tinder.

    If you can't show respect you don't deserve any. I've rooted against the Mavs forever, but Dirk is an all-time great and I'll be sad to see him go.

    I hated his ass quite a bit back in the Yao days when he was good. If that's NBA respect, then I respected the **** out of him.

    Bye!

    I always appreciated Baron Davis and J-Rich beating his arse in 1st round.



    Back then when the Worriers were tru Warriors and Underdogs.

    Now how are you gonna forget Mr. (eventual) 51-point scorer, Corey Brewer?? He too was on that roster!

    Dirk is my 2nd fav Non-Rox player ever (after TD). Just pure class, heart of a warrior and tbh in our system I think he can still play as a super sub ala Nene.

    Dirk, TD, KG were among the best PFs in history and would terrorize the league today. Surprised guys like them haven't appeared yet.

    Tyson Chandler and Jason Kidd are both role players, Chandler has never been a star and Kidd is old enough to retire at that point. Hakeem is great but it doesn't make the OP's statement any less true. Not sure why you are trying to prop up Hakeem at the expense of Dirk. Also I'm not that familiar with Dream's team during the 2 peat but considering he played more than a decade before winning his two rings pretty sure Dream's supporting cast werent total trash otherwise Dream would have won a ring every year his entire career if it was all him.

    Dirk is indeed the only person to win a ring without a 2nd star since Hakeem.

    The GSW series win over Dallas was thrilling. It was also satisfying to see Dirk overcome Miam's big three for the ship.

    Don't like the Mavs, but Dirk is a class act and I wish him well.
