C'mon, Lewis had 18/3 in that game, and Dirk had 33/13, he was not exactly "with him", even back there.
And Harrington was the 25th pick of the draft. It's not only the work ethic, Dirk was an absolute freak, even from a physical standpoint, with great eye-hand coordination. He was a top notch talent, the only reason he fall to 8 was because a lot of GM don't want to take euros, and white guys so high. It's just the way it is, even today to some degree, altough things changed a little, but a couple of years ago a GM said he would never take a white guy with the first pick.
