No one thought Dirk could do it until he did it. He averaged 23 and 7 the year he won it all.I don't know. The Mavericks had Dirk who was still at the back end of his prime when the Mavs won in 2011. And he went off in several games in those playoffs. 48 in game one of the WCF, 40 in game 4, game winning basket in game 4 of the Finals, and so on. And the Pistons had Mr. Big Shot Chauncey Billups who was insanely clutch. I like Hayward but I don't know if he can go off like those guys or be as clutch.
Chauncey was a career 15 and 5 player.
I'm sure you know what I meant though.No one single handedly wins a ring. Ironically if you had to name a team that was closest to that, it would probably be Dirk when won it with the Mavs.

The cool thing about the Mavs title was that it was dudes like Marion Barea Chandler and of course Dirk becoming more than the sum of their parts and winning a title. The Jazz could be that team with Hayward leading the way, I believe that.
