Didn't you guys, as a team, shoot around 40% from beyond the arc or something this postseason? Dirk had plenty of help, as far as how his team stepped up and played. Would you rather have had LeBron, in name, playing like garbage in the Finals or Terry playing how he played in the Finals?

Every single team that ever won a championship had a better "team" - it's not like Jordan or Bird carried those squads to victory by themselves...
Why does Dirk lose points for Terry having a good playoff run, but nobody else loses points for their teammates stepping up? By that standard, Tim Duncan is ridiculously overrated because Robert Horry hit all those big shots in the playoffs...
GTFO and take your straw man with you.
