Game 22 Dirkie Thread: P.J. Washington!!

[SleepingHero]

Holy freaking crap. WHAT A WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHAT A FREAKING WIN!!!!

This was as physical of a game I have seen in years in the NBA. Both teams were getting away with murder, and then somehow, the refs started just calling the most random touch fouls I've ever seen.

Lively's and PJ's energy this game was game defining. They were incredible. I can't believe I have the pleasure of watching such great guys. Lively's suffocating defense around the rim. PJ shutting down Morant.

And I mean the balls on Dinwiddie to take that transition pull-up 3.

Luka has looked dominant since coming back. So much like his old self. He had a couple of bad mistakes, but I attribute that more the physicality of the game more than anything. He provided that consistent offensive foundation needed on a night where Kyrie and Klay had basically nothing going.

Sheesh. I have to give my Dirkie to Lively. I mean the entire game he was every where.

Also special shoutout to Marcus Smart for helping the Mavs get back into this one.
