    Nowitzki played in a weaker era with better teammates, just won 1 ring in his entire carrer because of that lucky game 2 of the finals (down 71-88 with 7min left).

    Malone is the 2nd greatest scorer ever, and just because he lost against Jordan Bulls twice in the finals and was really very very close of winning any of those series he is an inferior player?

    I dont get it.

    Really, why is Dirk Better?

    DIrk obviously played in the stronger era, but almost nobody considers Dirk better than Malone. Malone is the #2 all time PF pretty solidly.

    Stats were posted above.

    1 ring (one might argue that the number of rings isnt that important, I do think so too, but for 90% it is vital to being a top player)

    more versatile on offence, better for teams spacing

    more help? malone played his career with frickin top 5 (top 10) pg stockton and lights out hornacek. Also had a supposedly good coach in Sloan as well (even though the three players might have rubbed off more on him than otherwise).

    I think it's a fair assumption that Nowitzki is better, but in PF battles, one can always argue otherwise because of different time/different player style.

    I don't know, what if? What if my aunt had balls? What if Malone faced Shaq, Wade, Lebron, Bosh, Allen, etc?

    Dirk took out the most stacked team of all time IN THEIR PRIME. All those boys were young and healthy.
