Honestly it should be shared between three guys who obviously stepped up, Brunson, DFS, and KP.
Brunson for his spectacular overall play and at times keeping the whole team afloat. Unfortunately he got injured and robbed us of his continued greatness as I think he largely disappeared after coming back from the lockerroom.
DFS hit timely three after timely three and just all around was solid.
KP once again shone on offense and was a reliable scorer for most of the night. He had some good defensive possessions, one being a great contest on a Birch hook shot in the first causing the miss. He also had some not so good defensive possessions, one where he fell asleep and let Birch hit a 3 in his face.
Still I don't think the Mavs come close to winning without any of these 3 guys and all 3 deserve the dirkie. I went with KP for once again showing up with solid offense that the team sorely needed with THJ and Luka being off.
