Exactly - like how he was locked up last year in the playoffs? Tracy McGrady and Ryan Bowen played great defensive on him - and he didnt have one GREAT game in the whole series.
Who cares about the playoffs? MVP is a regular season award, besides, he did have a really good game 3, 30-10 in a must win game for them on the road.
I agree for all the reasons previously posted--not very good defense or making teammates better, mainly. However, you hafta leave room for Jirk to have improved. He's a flopper...but he's gotten better from last year. He has more of a post game for the likes of Bowen and T-Mac. I hate to admit it, but I think he could do decent against us this year in the playoffs.. (though we still woulda won with a healthy team)
