Giannis or Dirk?

[Jasper]

Giannis was better in their peaks. All this Giannis hate will die down once the memory of this series fades a bit.

Dirk losing in the 1st round to an 8th seed in 2007 was even more embarrassing considering he was healthy and the MVP.

thank you.

There were actually rumors in Dallas that Dirk has hiding an injury late in the year in 07 and it also came out that his family was going through a rough time in the playoffs because his dad was really sick.

Like I said before… everyone wants context and circumstances applied only when it benefits certain players.

This will be nothing of note for Giannis ultimately and the circumstances should be taken into account… just apply that same logic to all players fairly.

I have them ranked the same actually. One is all offensive skill and no defense. The other is all illegal traveling and brute blunt force trauma physicality. Both firmly behind: KD, Steph, Barkley, Malone, and Kawhi. For me. And being really honest Luka is probably already better than Dirk and the best Mavericks player ever and all he needs is a chip to solidify it.

Luka is going to need to win multiple titles as the clear best player to surpass Dirk.

Definitely has a chance, he’s that good, but it’s easier said than done.
