Hey, hey, hey, I'll have you know that Dirk has a grand total of two dunks this year! How dare you insult him like that!?

Good post, and I think the other reason he isn't appreciated is because he's been around a long time, yet never won anything. Thus, everyone knows who he is but dismiss him. They've all heard his story by now, seen some games of him, know he a Euro who shoots threes, and think that's all.
