defensively dwight was a monster. he was great on that end. but offensively he had obvious flaws, basically he did for hedu and the rest of the non defenders what they did for him on offense. They scored on the perimeter, set him up real nice for easy dunks. while also getting others involved cause it wasnt like dwight was some great big man passer. he was just ok.
Hedu was running point forward after jameer went down during the season. and lets not forget about Rashard lewis.
the one game they won in the finals everyone had to pick up the slack and drop 18 to 21 points. dwight had his same 21 which was not nearly enough to over come the lakers unless everyone else dropped 21 along with him. thats not the sign of a guy who carried the team. that means he can't do enough to carry anyone on the offensive end.
Look at Hude running point forward, 18 and 7 dimes.
I dont think you watched that finals series. dwight wasnt carrying anyone on offense. they actually carried him. he carried them on D, and they carried him on offense.
Look at the series stats.

Look at the highest scorer? HEDU not dwight with 18 ppg.i mean dwight was averaging 15.4 pts per game yall. and he wasnt even shooting 50% from the field and he was a known non jump shooting big. lol at him carrying anyone on the offensive end of the floor. half of his rebounds was probably his own misses quiet as kept.
