Assists... which can be a misleading category. Dirk created offense for everyone. That's what made him special.. He sucked in the defense when he'd get the ball in the post.. He'd kick the ball out and it'd usually get moved around the perimeter to the open man. That wouldn't be an assist for Dirk, but he'd be the one creating the opportunity. Dirk could put up huge numbers while being efficient and creating a lot of looks for other players. There's really not a lot of people that can do that.
