GAME 26 DIRKIE: Winner JB (52%) | Runner-ups THJ (30%) & WCS (12%)

 Not possible. SleepingHero said it can´t get lower.

It can't. Lets say this hypothetical doomsday scenario comes about and KP tries to force his way out, would that really devalue the guy to untradeable status anymore than his previous injury history has? Absolutely not.

Especially because KP is already turning the corner. For the season he's averaging 20/8 on 46/33/86.  For February alone he's averaging 21 ppg 9rpg and 2bpg on 47/38/95. His value has already increased. He's already shown he's on his way back to being the 30/10 dude in the bubble. 

Some people just want to see KP fail I guess since after every good game of his it's "Finally he had 1 good game about time" and after every mediocre/bad game its "KP will never be good, trade his ass, Mavs are dumb for signing him". It is the essence of pubescent mood swings.

So strange for the team to go 50/40/90 and still need a missed shot at the buzzer to win. Looks like Atlanta exploited the Mavs on the boards into about 8 extra possessions. Luka had some tough rebounds in this game to keep the Mavs out in front by a nose.

Free throws also are a big difference there. Hawks had 5 made more FT's and 8 more overall attempts. Add on top of the 8 possession deficit (which at minimum is 16 potential points), that makes up the difference.
