Dalakhani seems to not understand that there's a difference between being able to do something and being ABLE to do it. Just because you have an ability to do something doesn't mean you are proficient at doing it. The original point was that Hedo was a poor man's Dirk and that's just not true. They have completely different skills. Dirk can grab a rebound and take it up the floor on occassion. But he's not someone that you want doing that on a consistent basis because he can't. You can't put the ball in his hands and isolate him at the top of the key and have him put the ball on the floor and create offense, either for himself or for his teammates. You don't want Dirk leading your fastbreak and making the pass to the men on the wing. Hell, I saw Tim Duncan make a three point shot. But if I'm coaching against him, I'm giving him that shot all day everyday because he can't make it. He can but he can't. See what I mean?

Theres a difference that YOU don't understand. Dallas has always had an outstanding point guard while dirk was there. From Nash, terry, harris and now kidd. Of course dirk isnt going to be running the break as much. Of course he isnt going to be creating as much from the perimeter. He has guys around that do it better.

Hedo plays with perhaps the worst pg in the NBA and certainly one of the ten worst. Before that he played with Jameer nelson who was good but certainly not on the level of the dallas guards that dirk has played with. Look at his role when he was in Sactown. Believe that if necessary, dirk could play the same role. If you want, i can pull up clips where he does.

KIdd has a very difficult time creating his own offense.
For at least 2 years now. He is a distributor. If anything
Hedo's role on Orlando should have worked well for Dirk
at Dallas.

Alston can create. He is just really inconsistent. And Nelson
is much more of a creator than any of the Dallas points.

Lakers vs. Magic thread? F.UCK THAT. IT'S A DIRK VS. HEDO THREAD NOW!!

Nothing that i can say can make this look sillier than it already does. Lets agree to disagree and get on down the road.

I agree with the coach!

Which Dallas PG can create his own offense better
than Nelson? I will give you a hint. He now plays
for New Jersey.

This is a pretty uninspired back to the wall performance being put out by the magic. Its almost as if they have thrown in the towel. Their rotation on the perimeter has been awful.
