Im sure you can find cases where both have done
the opposite of what I have said. But for the
majority of the season and the playoffs, this
is how I see a small part of both player's games.
Dirk is not a spot up three guy in any offense from anywhere on the floor. He is too big a part of the offense. He handles the ball from any part of the floor although certainly not as much as hedo because its not the same offense. They are similar in skills if not how they are utilized. Dirk certainly being a much better player.
