Yup, it was all Dirk's fault that Dwayne Wade (1 person) had the same amount of free throws as Dallas (a team) during the NBA Finals. I'm not one to make excuses but anyone could see from a mile away how the refs and the NBA wanted that series to go. There are two series my entire life that I've seen and for sure knew there was something amiss it was the 2006 NBA Finals and the 2002 Western Conference Finals (Lakers vs. Kings).
I'm not responding to either of you guys, I'm just saying in general.
But that's all irrelevant...how exactly does something that happened in 2006 have any bearing on receiving accolades in 2009?
The man just gets NO love. Yeah, not winning a title sucks but imagine fuckin Karl Malone getting this much shit for never winning one. Granted, he had Jordan in his era but still Dirk has consistently been a top 10-15 player in the league going on 6-7 years now and still nobody in the league wants to give him an ounce of credit. I've never seen more bitching and moaning than when he won the MVP.
