GAME 64 DIRKIE: Kyrie Wins! (55%)

[SleepingHero]

Good point on Green.  It was certainly understandable if he was not put back in the game.  But I liked that they did.   Did they do this because Hardaway came out with an injury?  They mentioned this on the tv.    I could see certain situations where Hardaway closes some games, but I want Green for the most part.  It is a great learning experience and he can help.  I certainly don't want to see Holliday in the closing lineups.

Yeah THJ heading to the locker room for seemingly no said reason was a bit concerning. Especially coming directly after Wood heading to the locker room for a brief moment after getting pulled against the Pacers.

There hasn't been any mention of injury though. Maybe THJ just went back to get taped up? Something to keep an eye on....

I actually don't mind Holiday closing the lineup. Despite his bad shooting the last 3 games, he is basically Bullock-lite right now. He actually is a solid defender and doesn't make many mistakes (besides a super egregious one against the Pacers giving up a dunk to Haliburton that still enrages me).

I don't need to say anything.  SleepingHero said it already.  Kyrie gets my Dirkie.

I still like to read your thought process for dirkie's though!
