GAME 61 DIRKIE: Justin Holiday winner 80%
#7
Interesting game.  Several things jumped out at me.  I will discuss them as we count down to the ever elusive quest for my Dirkie...or at least...the Dirkie I get to award.

Kyrie Irving--may not be the head case I always thought he was.  I've been impressed with his overall demeanor, play on court, and interaction with other players on the team.  He's a leader--who doesn't have to be a leader, to lead. Does that make sense? His addition to the team has lead to a change in pace that involves the entire team.  With an ability to change pace--fast, slow, in between--we appear to have a deeper team than previously shown.  J. Kidd mentioned in an interview that now is the time to settle on a 9 or 10 man rotation.  I like a bigger rotation, so I'm thinking 10.  Does KI deserve a Dirkie?  Maybe, probably, but not this time.  I'm sure he will earn many Dirkies though.  I'm also sure the KI will leave in the summer.  Hope I'm wrong.

Luka Doncic--pedestrian game? For him?...yeah...maybe, but still an easy double double.  I could see that Luka, KI, and the "team" are still in the process of working out a team identity.  I'm actually hopeful that they will get there.

Pretty good play by the entire team.  I'm not going to sit here and nitpick them--there were some nits to pick though.  And...this was against San Antonio.  They're playing for a lottery pick.  SA does have a few good players and prospects though...

Justin Holiday.  Hmmm.  From my limited exposure to him I thought he was fairly good.  Couldn't understand the negative comments about him.  His debut game, especially after such a short time with the team, was--pretty good.  He also gave a good interview after the game.  Seems like a player who could work out.  Could.  Since expectations were so low...he earns my Dirkie for this game
