but i love how keeping his head about him automatically makes dirk "weak". ridiculous.

BBL,
Keeping his head about him was good but at the sametime you can't just let someone come into your space and touch your face in a confrontational and demeaning manner like that without doing something.
Guys don't respect Dirk's toughness around the league. Could you imagine someone doing that to Rasheed Wallace? Kobe Bryant? Kevin Garnett? Josh Howard? Jerry Stackhouse?
Even when they're guarding Dirk they take advantage of him by playing jersey to jersey without so much of a flinch.
