He was the only all-star on a team of 30+ year olds and they were also missing Caron Butler who was arguably their second best player before going down with an injury, role players stepped up but this was Dirk vs Heat all the way. Without Dirk the mavs win 1 game max, there were only 3 players on that team that averaged double figures in points that series, so cut it out bruh, Dirk carried.

The Spurs inflicted the worst beatdown in NBA finals history, a very underrated fact. LeBron's legacy basically was erased right there. It doesn't matter the teams involved, it's the finals dude, it's not supposed to be so one-sided. Not even the Nets facing Shaq and Kobe lost like this, they tried to fight at least. Many examples of underdogs facing monsters and you didn't see a 14 pts margin of victory. And the funny thing is... LeBron broke his own record the last finals, Golden State won by 15 pts every game.
