Post: Game 53 Dirkie Thread: Anthony Davis !

We got some good contributions from the bench. Naji has got a motor on him. For some reason he looks awkward to me, but he plays! I don't know what to say about Dinwiddie. He doesn't like to play ...

I'm flat still in shock. This is probably the worst trade I've ever seen. Nothing against Anthony Davis--he's a good player. But Luka is a transcendent world class player. Not somebody you trade a...

I'm as guilty as anyone about letting points slant my Dirkie vote. In reality it's often the defense, which is rarely quantifiable, that turns the tale. I'm not saying that this game was a defensive...
