Ball handling and the ability to go
to the basket off the dribble is a
huge diff. between these two.

Dirk handles the ball very well and gets to the basket. he was 8th in free throw attempts.

When Dirk receives the ball at the FT line and
closer. He is not a perimeter ball handler.
Turkeyglue is. They are very different in this
respect. Turkeyglue is much, much quicker.

Hedo is a legitimate penetrating big man.
(the women love this aspect of his game)

Hedo isnt much, much quicker than anyone.

Dirk goes to the hole all the time. I dont know what you guys have been watching but if you want i can put up video.

NOT from the perimeter.

And yes, Hedo is much, much quicker than Dirk
with the ball.

They play a diff. game. Turkeyglue initiates offense,
Dirk plays closer to the basket with the ball. And waits
at the 3 point line for shots away from the basket.
It is quite obvious. To me anyway.

The white European lumping syndrome is a strong draw.

Will youtube video settle it or will i hear some lame excuse telling me that what i have watched for the last ten years isnt real?

Dirk handles the ball well from any point on the floor and he drives to the basket and he can go coast to coast and run the break.

I only read posts in paragraph form so I don't even know that you are arguing at this point in haiku. What I do know is that Hedo is far more effective as a point than Dirk could ever be.

This is just not true when compared to Hedo.
You might find an occasion where Tim Duncan
has run a break, but if we consider the entirety
of a season and playoffs, it is quite clear that
Hedo is much more proficient than Dirk from
the perimeter with the ball. It really is not
even debatable imo.

I give you credit for trying to turn the
argument and your persistence.
