    When KG played with the talent Dirk played his entire career with, he won a ring.

    Dirk had Ray Allen and Pierce on his team?

    Can't say I remember that.

    No, don't bring up dudes like Michael Finley.

    I don't know why so many people think Reggie is better than Ray.

    Allen is better than Miller in most career stats:
    ppg (Reggie is slightly, only slightly better in playoffs)
    fg% (Reggie better in regular season, Allen better in playoffs)
    3fg% (both regular season and playoffs)
    rpg
    apg
    spg

    Miller has 6 seasons averaging more than 20 ppg. Allen has 9 seasons.

    Reggie Miller is mainly remembered for his big shots. But Ray Allen is clearly a better all-around player.

    Shaq over TD by a whisker...

    Dirk over KG... although I think KG has been the better all around player.

    Nash over Kidd....

    Miller over Allen.... not THAT close

    Here are some other ones...

    Dream or Shaq?

    Malone or TD?

    Manu or Pierce?

    Dwight Howard or D. Robinson

    Didn't Dirk play with a certain 2 time MVP??

    That's a really good one i didn't think about. Actually, I consider it a tougher call than any of the others mentioned.

    Nash wasn't nowhere as good as he was in Phoenix.

    Nash wasn't part of the 66 win team or the finals team

    Will - Shaq, KG, Nash, Miller

    Should - Duncan, KG, Nash, Allen

    (although I am a huge Kidd booster, so that's tough for me to say).

    Shaq, Kidd, Allen, and KG...to me it aint even close....Kidd better than Nash because 1. he plays defense 2. He attempts to play defense 3. Triple Doubles dont grow on trees (especially from the PG position).......Allen better than Miller because 1. He plays defense 2.He attempts to play defense 3. Allen used to was a top 10 player in his prime..dont think Miller ever was (not sayin he wasnt good yall...take a breath).......KG better than Dirk because 1. He plays defense 2.He attempted to play defense 3. He was dominate by himself on a crappy team.Cant penalize him for FINALLY getting a team around him. (I love Dirk's game besides the flopping)...Shaq was just Shaq so no need to explain that one...

    How about TMAC vs Francis (while in Rockets jerseys)
    Mobley vs Maxwell
    Horry vs Landry
    Thorpe vs Scola
    and my fave A. Brooks vs S.Brooks/Maloney

    Ray Allen was a beast back when he had all his explosiveness, virtually unstoppable.

    Disk is also the only MVP to collect his trophy from the sideline of a game his team wasn't in. He leads his team well in the regular season and then chokes in the playoffs. I'm no KG fan, but his intensity is what the Celtics feed off of and has lead them to championships.
