It's really uninformed to say that Marion gives Dirk trouble.
You got pwned.
To those that watch the games, it's painfully obvious that there is NO defender in the league that can stop Dirk by himself. Not Artest, not Bowen, not Marion. No one. Certain TEAMS have good enough defensive personnel and schemes to cause Dirk problems at times, but even those teams have to use multiple defenders and a team scheme designed to slow Dirk down. And even then, those schemes can be beaten, as the Mavs demonstrated Friday night with their patient and efficient annihilation of the Spurs defense.
I'm not saying that I know for sure that the Mavs WILL win the title this year. Only that they can.
