In reality, Chandler is not that guy, and his whole career impact numbers show that, there is plenty of evidence, and there is none, that he was the one reason that finally made us winners. No. It was Dirk first and foremost, and his absolutely ridiculous, historic run, up until the finals where he was sick, and injured, and his numbers somehow plummeted because of that.

Anyway, this argument has been done to death. I think you underestimate the value of a double double center. And please don't compare anyone to Dumpier, he was awful.
