It is virtually impossible to compare Dirk and Peja, they are completely different players and as such have different roles and impact on their teams...
While I said the offence was the crucial part of the 4th qt meltdown, I never implied Peja should've been "fed" as you've put it, nor do I feel that should be the way any team plays (look at Kobe, T-Mac and look at Sonics or Pistons). I said he was hot, use him while he's hot ...I think it's safe to say after 6 NBA seasons that Peja, although a proven 25 point scorer, still has plenty of room for improvement...but this is not about Peja. What I said was you don't run your team the way we saw Bibby did last night, you need to get everyone, not just Peja, involved. I don't think this is something coming from the bench, as I said, it probably comes from the "freedom" the guys have, that making the responsibility of a playmaker even greater...I somehow feel that if B-Jax hadn't made that TO in closing minutes while Bibby was on the bench that things would've turned out differently..
