You're right. Offensively, Dirk is far superior and still a much more important part of his team today.
I know people ride Duncan because of his championships, but he's about to get another one and he won't even be the 5th best player. The Spurs are a GREAT organization and Duncan was a big part of it...but Dirk won it all with FAR less. Duncan was fortunate to have a great team, great coach, and great front office management his entire career. Duncan was finals MVP in 3/5 championships, proving he wasn't even the best player on his own team 2/5 times. Dirk never had the luxury of being the second or third best player on a championship team. If Dirk doesn't play well, the Mavs are dead.
