I was noticing that too, and it got me thinking. It's easy to get excited about him with how he's played so far, but I do have to remind myself that the biggest test for him is still to come: getting the ball to Dirk in his comfort spots when the defense is in full denial mode. I'll be surprised if there doesn't end up being at least a bit of a learning curve for him there, as he's never really had that responsibility before.
