Dirk Nowitzki's new haircut looks like Ellen Degeneres and the Mavs are torching him

The ribbing was so bad that Dirk had to sit on out Sunday. (OK, it was for rest, but maybe this had a small effect.)

Dirk Nowitzki sat out of Sunday's game to rest his 37-year-old self. To honor the occasion, maybe, he trimmed up his hair a little bit and shared the picture after the game.

It didn't go over well.

Unsurprisingly, Chandler Parsons -- who is on the record earlier this month telling us about his and Dirk's "shit talking" -- went IN.
