Grandmaster_C, one thing that semi show up with those stats is the impact that Dampier has on Dirk on both sides.

I'm not sure that I see the effect you're referring to. Dirk's overall on-court +/- is a +12.9. By comparison the Damp/Dirk pairing has an on-court +/- of +10.8. I suppose you could argue that since some of those paired minutes are against opposing teams' starting units, perhaps the competition is a little stiffer than at other times. Just hard to get a feel is all I'm saying.
