Re: top 5 players....is Dirk still there?
Someone should do a thread tallying up the votes for the top 10 players on ISH (L.Kizzle style). Anyone wanna start this?

That would be starting World War 3.

Wade shouldn't be in anyone's top 5 much less above Lebron...
lebron took his team to the Finals without the help of Shaq...
Wade is the most overrated player in the NBA
Haven't we already gone through this?

Wade was a first round out this year just like Dirk...
Wade spent his season in a wheelchair yet people have him ranked higher than Dirk....that is ridiculous

Arguing Wade as a top 3-5 player in this league is a very legitamite argument. Shaq or no Shaq, he's still a tremendous player who's accomplished a great deal in his short career. If you're going to punish him for having Shaq then Kobe shouldn't be in your top 5 either.

Pretty much.

If you're injured, that doesn't make you any less of a player.

Don't even let me start telling you all the problems the Heat had this year...

If Duncan breaks his hand in the season, Dirk > Duncan? NO. If you're injured, it doesn't make you WORSE.

Re: top 5 players....is Dirk still there?
Wade just HAS to be top 5. Clutch player who plays with no fear. Cannot be stopped in the open court. If you add in other things (character, willingness to play through pain, etc), you have to include him on this list.

I am not talking career wise...I am talking about currently.
Kobe didn't spend last season in a wheel chair...he led a group of nobodys to the playoffs without shaq, just like lebron.
Wade was in the playoffs this year because of Shaq, and we he came back he lost.

Wade has also made it deep into the playoff w/o Shaq on his team.

yes it does...being injury prone does make you less of a player....injuries have ruined many careers.
Wade dislocated his shoulder and has gone through knee surgury...Dirk stays healthy....in my book that is a big PLUS for Dirk.
