    What if dirk was american with a nike shoe contract?

    Would he be every white american man's hero and favorite player like larry bird???

    Dirk has been doing this for years and only called soft , only because he's 7 foot and not a center,

    He became a legend tonight.

    Just too bad he is not a poor kid from a small city. He's just not as popular as he should be. Is it because he is from germany or wherever?

    White's dude in the NBA aren't marketable, he'll have the worst selling shoes ever. And I doubt people will idolized him, since he looks like a freaking dork bag.

    uh yeh i know he's not american and is from germany, can you read???

    White guys in nba aren't marketable because simply their aren't that many white guys. There aren't that many black nba players that are marketable either except a few.

    Read the title. Its what if he was an american white guy, etc etc etc

    I don't remember that dork bag selling anything marketable either in the late 80's, except making McDonalds commercials after well retiring. White's dude has not been marketable in the NBA for over 20 years already, and it will never happen, when players are aspiring to be the next MJ and Kobe Byrant. Although Blake Griffin looks like he's more on the white side though.

    Yall need to quit hatin on Dirk cause real basketball fans know what the deal is. Dirk is the most underrated player every year. Don't forget the Mavs are doing this without 2 really good players (Caron and Roddy B) thats just how deep they are this year.

    Another reason why the Mavs are so good this year is because they can make defensive plays in crunch time thanks to Chandler, Kidd and Marion just to name a few.

    Dirk deserves way more credit than he gets. I don't get the hate. He's amazing and has been so for a long time.

    i think the fact that he is 7 feet tall makes him less appealing to fans. How many people in this world will ever be 7 feet tall? I guess when you're that tall people just kind of write everything you do off like you're supposed to be able to do that because you're so damn tall. I have a ton of respect for dirk as a player, but I think his height kind of diminishes his public perception a little bit. I may be wrong though, in all honestly how many guys are 6'9 moving around as quickly as lebron? I guess lebron gets the pass because he's home grown. A lot of really good European players don't get the love I agree with that part. Dirk is a beast no matter how much love he gets or doesn't get from the media. He finally has some veterans to carry him over the hump. Kidd draining that 3 in OT stamped the mavs ticket to the finals, and they have a damn good shot once they get there too.

    boring when he talks, afraid to play defense because he doens't want to get hurt. doesn't rebound enough, looks like a giraffe riding a bicycle when he dribble drives. but a pretty awesome shooter.

    Whites cannot sell most products as far as sports stars are concerned.

    It's a black game

    There will never be another Larry Bird. Dirk is a great scorer, but nothing more. Larry made everyone around him better. Dirk does not. Plus Dirk got trick rolled by an ugly stripper.

    Good god chubbs i mean Warrior you always post ignorant posts son. Larry "The Legend" Bird won how many championships? Check career stats son Bird better field goal percentage. More rebounds and just a much better all around player. Just quit posting about sports you don't know much. Maybe there is a wal-mart forum or Food Stamps/Welfare forum you could post in kid.

    Bird has to be considered a better player but my God put Dirk in a time machine and he'd dominate like Bird did in that era.

    He would have been more popular if he didn't start out with playing in the same conference as Duncan, Garnett and Webber in their primes.
