Alonzo Mourning and Karl Malone are an interesting comparison. Zo is the reason the Heat won last year over the Mavs. Coach Riley figured it out and Zo took Dirk in double teams. Besides, Zo can score as well and did very well in the playoffs against us. Zo did not beat up Dirk either, really. Zo is just a capable player.

If Dampier had been an offensive force, Zo would not have been able to double Dirk. Zo was straying away from Damp/Diop every possession. Zo was fading towards Dirk constantly.
