The arguments will get really interesting if Dirk keeps this up for a few more years. He has a realistic shot at of being in the top 5 all-time in scoring, and reaching 30,000 career points. I guess doing that didn't really help Karl Malone, but it would be a lot harder to ignore now that Dirk has a ring (you're right that does feel awesome to type ). If Dirk got another ring, his profile would be a lot like Hakeem's: really good for a long time, and 2 rings playing with a bunch of role players (assuming Dallas doesn't pick up another star).
