Point taken, anything can happen in one game. However, Dirk does struggle while being guarded by small forwards. This is not a one-game thing IMO. Remember Nellie's comments on how Dirk last year was being guarded by small forwards and how they were really disrupting his game?

EDIT: Murphy, did Marion guard Dirk last year in those games? Didn't Stoudemire guard him, being the Suns had a few spares actually filling in for a center? Just asking, I don't recall those games. I hope he was and I hope you're right, but I'm not so sure.
