If you go 7 for 11 from 3, you automatically get my Dirkie vote

I like it when there are several good candidates for my Dirkie. 6 players in double figures. ( I won't mention the Wizards had 8 players in double figures. It might dull the defensive shine for both teams.)

DJJ is playing much better than I expected he would.

I'm usually down on THJ--even though I do like him as a person--and had one of those nights that keeps fooling us (and himself?) into believing he can do it every night.

Luka rebounded (literally) with a better night.

Seth Curry is a rhythm player. Sometimes he's got it, sometimes he don't. Unfortunately, or maybe fortunately, there are too many people in the pecking order to play himself into rhythm.

Lively is playing well above expectations. Even my normally rose colored, homer expectations.

Josh Green--is slowly playing himself into a bench role...

So who gets my Dirkie? I've got it between THJ and Lively. Flip a coin? Nope.

Sorry Timmie, Lively has earned my Dirkie.

Proud vote for Tim, now let's trade him.

Timmeh. Honorable mentions to Lively, Jones Jr., and Seth

But dropping 30+ off the bench when we needed it without Kyrie was huge, he was even passing better than usual. And this would be his first Dirkie of the season.
