The suns do a pretty good job making Dirk switch to cover Nash, and then Nash going one on one against his old buddy, just like they did in practice, taking him to the hole, or pulling up with the teardrop. While Dirk doesn't seem to tire much or get in foul trouble against the suns when they do this, it does leave Dirk vulnerable on D because they use an isolation on him.
