GAME 17 DIRKIE: Winner KP (52%) | Runner-ups DFS (21%) & Maxi (17%) - Kammrath - 11-24-2021
Who was the player of the game who elevated his game to help the team win?

DFS is the only correct answer.

Sensational defensive performance from him tonight, for sure!
I wish he could’ve dropped a few of those open corner threes in the first half though.
RE: GAME 17 DIRKIE: Who gets it? - Kammrath - 11-24-2021
KP is the only correct answer.
First time I have thought he has played to the true level I thought the Mavs were getting when they traded for him.

He was super active and looked almost athletic. Mavs really have to have their role guys hitting high 30's low 40's on three. KP and Luka give them all the space in the world.

Too many blunders imo.

DFS deserves credit for his defense and Luka for a great performance playing through injuries and fouls, but KP won the game. He looks like a totally renewed player right now.
RE: GAME 17 DIRKIE: Who gets it? - KillerLeft - 11-24-2021
I honestly don’t know who to give my vote. I could make a compelling argument for all four choices.

Has to be KP - he actually made the Clippers pay for playing small
RE: GAME 17 DIRKIE: Who gets it? - ballsrchr - 11-24-2021
All 4 guys on the Dirkie list deserve at least some consideration. Luka with a pretty good, gutty performance. KP with maybe his best game this year. Maxie had a rough night offensively, but he is an understated glue guy with outstanding defense. But...DFS played 49 minutes, had 17 points, and his defense on Paul George was stellar. I give my Dirkie to DFS.
RE: GAME 17 DIRKIE: Who gets it? - Tyler - 11-24-2021
BTW, bench Dirkie goes to Sterling Brown. On a night when Dallas really needed their depth to step up, he had a really nice game.
RE: GAME 17 DIRKIE: Who gets it? - Kammrath - 11-24-2021
This win feels like it could be a season defining, momentum changing kind of win. It feels like some things really clicked for the Mavs tonight.

Should have been 7 assists.
RE: GAME 17 DIRKIE: Who gets it? - KillerLeft - 11-24-2021
The studio Durkee goes to Damaris, who I sincerely hope is being groomed to take over for Harper soon.
RE: GAME 17 DIRKIE: Who gets it? - MrGoat - 11-24-2021
I'll vote DFS. With healthy KP my expectations for him have gone up. Maxi would have gotten it with one more free throw made
RE: GAME 17 DIRKIE: Who gets it? - ItsGoTime - 11-24-2021
I'm having a tough time with this one between DFS and KP. Hate DFS's (edit: 3 pt) shooting and rebounding, LOVED his defense on PG13! Liked KP's offense and mostly his defense, hated his 7 Rebs, and all other stats. Cow is right even though I gave him a hard time about it, KP needs to be stronger with the ball. Refs also have no reason to swallow their whistle when all the Clippers hang on his arms though.

Kleber was DOMINATE defensively during that 4-5 minute stretch during which they held the Clippers scoreless down the stretch. If the Mavs had closed it out in regulation, I think he might be getting my vote.
I legitimately cannot decide between porzingis and Finney-Smith tonight. I kind of want to give it to Porzingis, because he really was amazing. But I think Finney-Smith‘s defense on Paul George was consistently great for 49 (49!!!) minutes, And this is exactly the type of performance from him that goes overlooked so often.
