Where does Dirk rank all time? How many power forwards are ahead of him?

Duncan, for sure.

Who else, though? His career is actually better than Barkley, regardless of peaking nowhere near as high as him. Garnett's career is ruined by Minni, but he also peaked higher and has a championship to his name.

Malone has done way too much for Dirk to be rated higher. So, where does he rank?

EDIT: Unless you're talking overall player ranking opinions, in which case, my bad.

If he decides to play one more season after this one, he could probably go as high as 7th alltime in scoring.

"Garnett's career is ruined by minni"

Yes, outside a couple seasons, he was irrelevant out there.

What exactly made him irrelevant?

[JellyBean]

Congrats are in order for Dirk. Great job

[moe94]

What exactly made him irrelevant?

Team success? Isn't that one of major factors in deciding career value? I mean, for what other reason is Duncan consensus best in his position?

What exactly are you defining as team success?

Duncans the consensus best PF ever because..he's the best PF ever. As a rookie won FMVP and led his team to a title. The next year he misses the playoffs an they get swept in the first round.

I don't even think he's better than KG and certainly not in a consensus fashion. Duncan is regarded so highly because of his rings. There have been much better offensive power forwards and KG was every bit the defender he was.

Duncan's regarded highly because on his rings?

Since when did winning championships become a back handed way of calling somebody overrated?

Do you think they just hand out Championships? His level of play led teams to championships.

I'm starting to doubt you ever saw KG in a twolves uniform..please tell me about all these "better offensive power forwards who were just as good defensively"

You do realize your trying to make a claim that the 2004 MVP was irrlevant?
