Game 4, The Finals, Dirkie Thread: Lively!!!! - ballsrchr - 06-14-2024
When the team plays as a team it's hard to find that one person who helps win the game--except Luka...and sometimes Kyrie. However...this is not exactly a team win, though the team play good.
Kyrie seems to have shaken off the rust, and showed up. Luka sort of relaxed and just had fun. The rest of the team played off of them.
But...I'm gonna give my Dirkie to Lively. If not for Lively...it would have been Gafford. If not for the twin powers--Luka...and so on and on.

Lively was a game changer tonight and that corner 3 was a beauty. He was super active and did all the little things we needed to win.

I vote Josh Green but he’s not an option.
Lively a close second.

Sorry. I noticed that after I had done the poll. Lot of good effort from JG.

My decision is between Kleber (not listed) and Luka, but it’s cool, because Luka’s energy was the catalyst for everyone’s good game.

100% from three in the playoffs. Greatest shooter of all time.

Where is Green?
RE: Game 4, The Finals, Dirkie Thread: - BolsDamols - 06-15-2024
I gave it to Luka
- played with pace
- didnt complain to the refs
- played good D and kept his man in front of him
- closed out on Hauser/White threes
- punished celts in the paint
- took care of the ball (only 1 TO)
- set the tone (agree with KL)
(only red mark is the 0-8 3-point shooting with the last one being a wedgie!)
If he keeps doing all the things above Mavs have a very good chance in Game 5

Leading rebounder in the game: Dereck Lively with 12, 7 of them offensive. Second leading rebounder: 3-way tie among Luka, Tatum and Green, with 5 each. Dominating game from the only true center in the series.

Mavs finally able to leverage their size advantage. DLive was special. I can’t wait to see how he develops. Could become a top 5 player in franchise history.

I've only now managed to watch the game start to finish.
WOWOW
WHAT A GAME! A massacre! What a hiding. The Mavs thoroughly destroyed Boston.
This game was heralded by Luka but didn't really take off until Lively came out and just took over. I mean he busts out a corner 3 from out of nowhere??? What??!? The amount of moments he had this game felt never ending
Everyone on the Mavs decided to finally hit some shots. Exum came out and kept the pace up. Green had a great game. And Timothy Duane Hardaway Jr became the Chef Steph in garbage time.
This game felt good. This team looked locked in. It was a kind of locked in from a team desperate. Jeeez what a response.
I know the odds of them coming back is next to nothing, but now the team is down 3-1 and we have Kyrie Irving who has already been there and done that.
Game 5 is everything. Win game 5 and we're cooking!!!
LETS GO MAVS!
