Dirk is a Great Offensive weapon.
He is the best mismatch in the NBA. A 7 footer that can shoot anywhere on the court.
And yet, that same 7 footer is not a weapon on Defense.
Josh is a good offensive player and a good defenisive weapon.
He can strive on both sides of the ball. Not only does he average 21 points a game and grab almost 8 boards a game, but he guards the best player on the opposing team every game.
Dirk averages one more point and and one more board a game. So in that since, they put up similar Offensive numbers. What sets them aside is the Defense. For that very reason, Josh Howard is my favorite player on this team.

when does josh guard the opposing teams best player? I have pretty much never seen this though it gets thrown out there all the time. If the opposing teams best player is a pg or small 2, devin guards him. If its a big 2 or 3 eddie jones guards him. if its a 4 or small 5 dirk guards him and if its a big 5 damp guards him(talking about in crunch time).
