Game 38 Dirkie Thread: Dereck Lively

[Mavs2021]

I thought Kidd’s decision to stick with Grimes and Hardy late was both surprising and important.  He also won two challenges.  Dirkie consideration?

Agreed 100%.

Also either Billups has the directive to not actively try to win games, or he does not understand how the challenge system works. I think I said this before.

The Dinwiddie and Washington b2b drives were very winable challenges, especially Washington. Camara was set outside the restricted area. Also makes you wonder about the whole coaching unit there that nobody works toward him. Gotta respect the Mavs whole challenge system; also stretching the rules like challenging that the ball went out of bounds off Gafford, so they´d get the foul call. Not sure that´s how the rule was intended, but we ruthless.
