So he missed that one pick on Sunday night, and then he didn't pick on Monday night, he finally did pick on Tuesday afternoon so he's got two strikes. Even though he made his last one, he was 60 hours late. I'll PM him one more time and if he doesn't pick by 12:30am than he's gone.
Okay people, I'm willing to trade PG Tim Hardaway for a 12th rounder, meaning you can get 5th or 6th round value for a petty 12th round pick. Hardaway averaged 21/4/10 in his prime, so you know he's worth it. Any takers?

When Dirk gets guarded by other SFs, he generally has more difficulty scoring the ball, as seen in 2005 playoffs when he was guarded by TMac, or this past year, when he was guarded by Stephen Jackson. Dirk isn't used to having guys coming out and guard him, and that's what the SFs did when they guarded him, considering the fact that SFs are more perimeter-oriented than the PFs that guard Dirk, regularly.

FYI, he played that very posistion for the first 3 or so years of his career because he played along side Ralph Sampson

Quicker swingmen would just blow by him, easy.

Dirk always struggles against versatile and athletic defenders. He struggled during the regular season with Marion on him and also in the two examples you mentioned, especially Stephen Jackson who bothered Dirk a great deal in the Golden State series. Dirk would struggle against most other SF's in the NBA if he started at the three. It's just not a good idea to start Dirk at 3 Pff.
