Yeah that was weird. I don't know how anybody could see that crazy, ballet-like running spin move and say they didn't even notice Dirk. The way they talked, you'd think Dirk was a bench player before Kidd got here to elevate him. Silly.
I think it's just that Dirk usually makes it look so easy, splashing in shots almost effortlessly when he's really on. The guy had 24 points in one half though, they could have given him a LITTLE credit. If he hadn't gotten into foul trouble he probably would have scored 40 tonight.
