Anyone else think Dirk Nowitzki is still soft? Lebron?

First and foremost, how did this tag even come upon Dirk? Is this because of all the first round losses?

Anyone else left out there who think he is still soft...pfft

The man has been top 5 clutch player in the past 10 years...I simply think that eyes have finally opened up in the media. Finally people respect his game because of the championship plays he is making.

On another note, if Lebron and Heat lose this series...Will the tag of soft move over to lebron?

Please discuss...

LeBron is just anti-humble. Dirk is the real king.

Dirk hasn't won it yet. If they don't, all the old memes will be back with a vengance.

Win or lose the series, Dirk has proven again that he's a dominant playoff performer. He's had a few poor matchups but on the whole, he's dazzling. Magic and Bird and even MJ have all had rough series performances themselves and are remembered as incredible playoff performers, and Dirk from 08 on has been a terifying force in the playoffs. Heck, even in 06, people forget the legendary performance he dropped on the Spurs just to take his team TO the Finals.
