I think Mavs fans are probably ahead of the curve in this regard. My impression of the national media is that the Mavs are Dirk and Jason Kidd...none of them appreciate that Kidd is probably no better than the 5th or 6th best player on the team.

Addendum...

Is there anyone in the universe who would take Matt Bonner over Jason Kidd? I dont think so, and I include myself. Nonetheless, Matt Bonner has a significantly higher on court v off court +\- than Kidd. This is the essence of overrated...where the commonly held perception of a player's value is considerably higher than his measurable on court contribution.
