PLAYOFF GAME 2 DIRKIE: Winner Burke (55%) | Runners-up Seth (26%) & Boban (13%) - Kammrath - 08-19-2020
Who was the "player of the game" who elevated his game above normal to help the team win?

Mavs bench...
Burke was the biggest contributor of all the bench guys...

Burke was integral to the win. Same with KP, Seth, DFS, THJ, and Boban.
But Luka was the driver that led the team. He gets the Dirkie.

Seth for me.

First of all....PUT THE BROOMS AWAY!!!!!
I knew Seth was good but +30. That is a big wow and gets the Dirkie vote from me.
The bench was great. Rick gets a vote for his combinations under Luka foul trouble duress. Trey Burke doesn't need a Dirkie because he just won a contract, probably from us.
I don't know that this win means a lot for any other game but it is always good to win a playoff game, unusual or not.
I will sleep well tonight

Trey Burke - the hero that we did not anticipate, but the one that we needed

Burke! But I can see a case for Curry.

Close call between Burke and Boban for me. I'll go with Burke. Getting 16 from a replacement guy was huge

The back court of Burke and Seth was great, they almost made it a 20 point lead. I could only vote 1 player but I'd give it to those two if I could.
RE: PLAYOFF GAME 2 DIRKIE: Who gets it? - KillerLeft - 08-19-2020
Seth was like +30 in 26 minutes, so that's tough to pass up, but OMG if they don't get that game from Burke on a night when Luka is constantly in foul trouble then our mood is significantly different right now.
I'm going Burke.

This was really a team effort with a lot of guys stepping up and giving Luka a relatively easy game. Luka started, bench finished. I am giving it to Burke. His stat line is awesome for June aquisition.
RE: PLAYOFF GAME 2 DIRKIE: Who gets it? - Hypermav - 08-19-2020
Truly a team win. I will go with Seth.
RE: PLAYOFF GAME 2 DIRKIE: Who gets it? - Luka_Magic - 08-19-2020
Burke gets the nod for me on account of his timely heroics down the stretch and contributions across the board.
RE: PLAYOFF GAME 2 DIRKIE: Who gets it? - ThisIStheYear - 08-20-2020
The Big Man got the interview, gets my vote for Dirkie!
RE: PLAYOFF GAME 2 DIRKIE: Who gets it? - Jommybone - 08-20-2020
Reggie Jackson deserves a vote. Wish he would guard Luka every night.
RE: PLAYOFF GAME 2 DIRKIE: Who gets it? - StepBackJay - 08-20-2020
Bench was great but Burke was key bc he couldn't be stopped. Sometimes the Mavs bench will struggle and take bad shots. I also think as good as KP is I don't need him taking a bunch of jump shots. Burke's looks were high percentage shots this game. Even his jumpers off the dribble looked really comfortable. He was getting to the rim at will. Burke will never be a big distributor but as long as we are getting points on the board while Luka sits, I am good with that.

Boban, because he turned Williams + Harrell 2nd unit into Williams + Harrell 2nd unit.
RE: PLAYOFF GAME 2 DIRKIE: Who gets it? - ballsrchr - 08-20-2020
Ah man! The bench was very good. If Boban had played a little longer I might have given it to him. Seth is certainly an option for the Dirkie. But...I voted for Trey Burke. Burke may be playing himself into a nice contract. The Mavs offense seems to fit Burke well.

Gotta throw Rick in the poll next time if the guys pull out a similar win
