No one to blame but Dirk

Here are the quotes from the QUITTER:

Barkley rips Dirk's quitter quote
"I wouldn't say we're worried, but our backs are against the wall," Dirk Nowitzki said in Eddie Sefko's story Saturday. "If we lose [today], this season is pretty much over."

Do you want me to also post Dirk's comments AFTER game 4? Stop defending a QUITTER. Dirk quite on his team, and decided to NOT even show up. Dirk quit for 5 games in the series. I can take one game to quit on a team, but 5 games in a series is totally MORONIC.

Dirk does NOT deserve the MVP, because he QUIT on his team. No Superstar in the history of SPORTS have played like that along with making those kind of statements about your team's chances. No player at all. This lead to the greatest collapse in the history of the NBA.

Quitting is a heavy accusation, man. I'm curious what makes you think Dirk quit?

To me, Dirk didn't quit. He just failed. There's a difference. Everybody fails at some point but it's the quitters I don't want on my side so I'm curious how you're drawing this hard conclusion.
