The Dallas power forward won the hearts of Mavs fans after ‘The Pose’ and his fourth-quarter ejection in Game 3.
The other fan-endearing moment occurred with 6:10 left in the game. In fans’ minds, what Washington might as well have been the equivalent of rushing into a burning house to save a baby, then climbing a tree to rescue a kitten.Washington barged into Luka Doncic’s defense after Clippers guard Russell Westbrook grabbed driving Doncic’s left arm, spun him around, then pushed him in the chest when Doncic objected.
Kidd was standing on the sideline when Washington, mere feet in front of him, squared his feet and jaw and stared downcourt to the Clippers’ bench.“I thought he was with Run-D.M.C for a minute,” Kidd said. “I gotta be honest, I didn’t know what to do. Or to expect, if someone was gonna come out and start breakdancing – or it was his turn to circle around and he was gonna breakdance.
“He came in and was telling me not to look at their bench,” Washington said. “I was like, ‘You’re not gonna tell me what to do.’ I decided to to strike a pose in front of the bench, just look at ‘em and get some good pictures in while doing it.“I just wanted to make a statement that you’re not gonna come in our house and try to tell us what to do and push us around. That’s all it was.”
