A great clip from that Simmons podcast linked above. Simmons has Dirk #17 all-time. Incredibly high praise. I'm kind of surprised- very pleasantly- the Simmons ranks Dirk above Garnett, and that most media figures seem to these days. Their resumes are so similar, yet before 2011, almost everyone outside of Dallas strangely acted like Dirk couldn't carry Garnett's jock strap.
It just makes me so incredibly happy to see how pretty much everyone loves Dirk now, considering how criminally underrated and disrespected he was through most of his career.
