Dirk's 2nd quarter is the most overblown aspect of last night's game. He sat for 5 or 6 minutes in the 2nd quarter and that was enough to kill his rhythm for the entire game? he sits out 15 minutes every night at halftime! Maybe Avery should have played him 48 minutes and he would have scored 60 points and impressed all the MVP voters. As it was, he ended up shooting 50% which is consistent with his season average...somethimes the percentages catch up with you.
He played almost 36 minutes and if we wouldn't have getting our asses kicked at the end of the game he would have been at or above his season average. Reading some of these threads you'd think he played 25 minutes.
