How many guys in this league have we seen just torch up Dirk on the defensive end? My only concern would be Dirk getting in foul trouble. Which is a huge concern actually but i'm sure if we can get Dirk on Amare for minimum minutes foul trouble won't be much of a concern barring any dumb fouls like players going up for dunks and getting an and 1 which will happen this series.

The flip side of this coin, if we go with Dirk and 4 smalls, is that either Amare has to take Dirk or Amare has to take a swingman or PG. Either way, I think it gives us an advantageous matchup.

That's what I want to see. I want us to force the Suns into a mismatch. If we do go small which I Expect who does Marion guard? Josh or Dirk? Then that leaves the question of who does Amare guard. There's going to be a mismatch somewhere.
