As stated by others...this is a very hard Dirkie to give out. 7 players in double figures.
Maxi got the ball rolling with 4 straight 3 pointers. This was an upper cut that set Utah back on their heels for awhile.
Then came contributions in turn by Bullock, Bertans, and Green. A little more seasoning and Green is going to be good.
Dinwiddie has played ok. Not his best...yet. I expect that to happen in a future game. Stay tuned.
DFS played 47 minutes, had 8 rebounds, 2 assists, 4 steals, and ONE turnover. Oh...I forgot...14 points. Not too shabby for a guy I had written off for several years. Not any more. He is a fine player.
Well...Brunson is doing everything the SECOND best player on the team ought to do when called upon. Heck...he does everything he ought to do when playing with Luka. This provides the Mavs with a quandry. I'm pretty sure JB's role going forward will be expanded even playing with Luka...but will he be happy as a second banana?...or will he want his own team? I don't think money is going to be the determining factor. Many teams will be willing to pay the man. I think fit and role will play a big part in who JB chooses.
Ah...the Dirkie. As much as I want to give the Dirkie to Maxi...I can't. Brunson has elevated his play as the main engine on the team. So...my Dirkie goes to Jalen Brunson...again.
