Nowitzki or Wallace?

[freakydestroyer]

Sheed on the Blazers and Pistons though 

toss up IMO. Can't go wrong with either.

Sheed was something special. Like it's been said he was a hof talent and could've been a legend, but the mindset was never there.

 

[Peep Game]

you made this before I did, but I sort of thought it would be a Dirk consensus. Seems like both have/had something the other lacks, with Wallace
lacking drive/effort and Dirk lacking toughness. I'm more interested in the Dirk/Barkley comparison, which I would go with Barkley.

we need to put this silly argument to rest. he does everything the rest of the so called tough guys do, but still isn't considered tough.

Neither.

Dwight Howard.

 

[remi23]

I don't think there's even been a player that had Sheeds skill set.

Ever. 

And it wouldn't be close. 

But Sheed was in fact, Sheed.  He cared little about being anything more than he was.  Talent wise, he had no ceiling.  He was as fundamental as Tim, range even moreso than Dirk, defensive ability like KG, could pass as well as Webber, he just simply did not put in the same work/effort that they all did.  Add it all up, and he could have been a top 10 all time NBA player.  And I am dead serious.  And he's a former Blazer, so don't take me saying this lightly, I rarely speak well of Blazers. 

That's like saying if Odom had the hunger/drive he would have been better than Magic

btw I'd take Sheed with his flaws

In that case many would take Hasheem Thabeet at 21 over Dirk... Stupid argument.

Screen capped. saved.  File backed up on external hard drive.

while we are on this subject, what are your guys' view on Tim Thomas???

 

[cyber smoke]

Hurts me to say it but after that playoff run Dirk has become the most overrated player in the past 10-20 years. Do you guys remember how yall used to DOG him along with the media ? Son was the bud of everyones jokes because of his multiple playoff failures. Oh and yea ill take Sheed's overall game over Dirk's insane shooting
