so duncan gets dirk in assists and blocks. dirk gets duncan in everything else. explain to me how hes playing MUCH better again? especially when dirk is being doubled constantly and duncan isnt.
Much is the wrong word. But definately better. Dirk has scored 1 more point and grabbed 3 more rebounds, hardly doing much better in those categories. While Duncan is getting a gaudy 6 assists and 4 blocks so far with superior defense. He's also shooting 12% higher.

I think the piont he was trying to make is that Duncan can do no wrong in the fan's eye and Dirk will always be looked at as a soft choker and that is unfair

i disagree but its fine to argue the other way if you wish. at best its been a wash if your arguing from duncans perspective. their blocks and steals combined are 4.0 and 4.5 for dirk and duncan respectively. Duncans much higher turnover rate coupled with the fact that he has still shot more than dirk and scored less, more than negates the fg% differential.

Re: This is the difference between dirk and duncan
btw for those who think dirk struggles in the playoffs do you even know his career numbers? dirks career numbers in the playoffs are 25.5 ppg and 11.1 rpg. the guy is a flat out stud.
