Game 3 DIRKIE: Derick Jones Jr!

[Jmaciscool]

I wanted really hard to give Luka this dirkie. I mean wtf were those threes? This dude is unreal. As I watched through the 3rd quarter my mind was made up that if it couldn't be Luka, I had to give it to DJJ.

Then the Grizzlies go on an improbable run. The momentum of which was only stopped in my eyes after THJ took an INCREDIBLE charge. It made the Grizzlies lose their challenge (something that saved the Mavs butts a couple of times) but also rattled their brains. Couple that with pretty incredible shot making and paired with hustle on rebounds, I ended up giving my dirkie to THJ.

Well deserved. Although I must apologize to DJJ. I was not familiar with your game *insert Shaq's face*. Will he have another 20pt outing again this season? Probably not. But when his shot is on, I can see why Kidd wants him in the starting lineup.

Honorable mention to Powell, who is literally perfect as this 3rd string center. He is feasting and beasting. 4 BLOCKS?? POWELL????? You just got to love it.

If only Bally had actually been working so I could have seen all this...
