I wanted to give Luka and Kyrie the Dirkie tonight. I really wanted to. I mean JEEEEEEEEEZ. 65 pts in under 30 mins played from both of them on 63% shooting. Sizzling and chilling. The Mavs are SO scary when they're both on like that. Literally unguardable.
But despite their incredible performance that certainly led to the win, I have to give the Dirkie to Powell. Dude was all over the court tonight and was a rebounding menace. He was hustling over and over, and was just a presence the whole time he was on the court. He also was great on defense tonight. He had several moments on Zion that made me raise my eyebrows.
Josh Green is at a close 3rd for the Dirkie. He got out of his funk tonight and had several great moments.
Side note, Dyson Daniels had some amazing defensive moments on both Luka and Kyrie tonight. Someone to keep an eye on in the future.
