And bonus points to the rooks for the meme potential.  Big Grin

   

(That play aside, I really did like Green's game as well.)

Worst case is that the we hand the Texas Legends a future MVP.

Confirms that we need a new coach.  Mellimania or GTFO, Rick.

Based purely on exceeding expectations, I voted for Melli. The Mavs were playing the worst team in the NBA right now, by far, so I don’t take much from this. But after the trade, I looked Melli up and statistically he seemed like one of the lowest rated players in the league. But he definitely flashed some real skills tonight along with good footwork and movement, so maybe he just needed a change of scenery. Will have to keep an open mind about this one.

Call me crazy, but I'm giving the Dirkie to Melli.  He far exceeded my expectations.  I also strongly considered DFS...but what the hell...Melli it is.  Crazy...

Melli was unironically the MVP of the 2nd half. His energy and shooting really made me start to think "Have we found our 2nd big guy off the bench?"

But I had to give the Dirkie to KP. He set the tone from the beginning and when he was out there the Mavs were always up 15. Great debut for Melli.
14x All-Star, 12x all-NBA, 1x MVP, 1x Finals MVP, 1 NBA Championship: Dirk Nowitzki, the man, the myth, the legend.
