Nah, European basketball isn't like NBA. They play defense all 40 minutes every game and I watched Germany a few times. Dirk gets doubled every single time and the oppositing teams focus only on him since there's no other star on the German team. So it's very hard for him to drop 50 like you say, but he definitely is one of the best players on the tournament. |
