    He's amazing. How many rings does he have with Dallas? 2?

    WTF? Dirk Nabitchki is not the best European to ever play. Ever heard of a guy named Sabonis? Morons.

    You're putting words in my mouth. I merely said Dame's defensive effort is bad and has a bad effect on the team. It's not acceptable for any team to compensate for bad effort on defense from any player. Dame doesn't get a pass on that.

    Yeah. Of course.... I was just playing the Devil''s Advocate. Obviously, I'm going to root for my home boy.

    There is just something wrong with the team. The effort all year has been suspect, and the body language seems distant.

    He has an excuse: he actually has SKILL, and plays hard. The rest don't.

    Why else do you think he's worn out by mid-season?

    No. Sabonis wasn't even All Star. Dirk is a champion and 6th in scoring all time.

    Dame should not be as bad as he is on D with the amount of effort he puts in on that side of the ball. You can point to him being lazy at times but its easy to point to everyone of our players for doing the same as well.

    They mean he's scored the most points in the NBA. But that's not what they said. Because they are morons. They don't know the difference.

    That big white guy on Dallas is getting away with murder on moving screens.

    Shot goes up, all 5 Blazers stand and watch with their hands at their sides and zero make a move for the rebound....

    That's fair enough. But he is not the sole reason we are down by 19. This is on the whole team and Stotts.

    And my argument is that, if anything, people should be THANKING Dame for what he has to put up with.

    Personally, I can forgive his lack of Defense because he makes up for it with amazing Offense.

    Apparently, that's not allowed here....
