Voted Ersan. Monta was 1b.

[Turk Nowitzki]

Voted Ersan, he was a monster tonight.

Props to the Swag Bros. though, they both played good games tonight.

[Max Green]

You can make a case for all 3, but I went with Ersan since he played with confidence, was a beast on the boards and showed up defensively as well tonight on Young.

[Nebula1]

Ersan was a monster but everybody knew about the matchup between Jennings and Holiday and Brandon ate his lunch on national TV. Brandon gets the nod from me.

I liked everybody tonight though. They looked good.

[Turd Ferguson]

Was on the fence while the game was actually winding down, but taking actual game impact and then looking at the boxscore, I think it had to be Ersan. Monta was 7/10 with 10 assists and Jennings was huge during that stretch in the middle of the fourth, and he hounded Jrue all game, pretty much shutting him down. Ersan and Jennings were really co-MPV's.

Huge game from all 3 but Ersan was the man.

[The Wet Whistle]

Ersan.

This is one of those games where you wish you could vote for all three, though

[blazza18]

Ersan. He's baaaaaaaaaack.

[emunney]

Ersan but Jennings' full court defense is definitely bothering people. Why it took Kobe doing it to him to remember it used to be the best part of his game is a question I don't have the endurance to deal with right now.

[bigkurty]

Ersan. He is finally playing good again but I would trade him for Gasol. Losing his 3 point shooting would suck but Pau should do everything else better.

[CanadaBucks]

Ersan who is quickly changing my mind about trading him

My thinking too. Although we do need a player that score in the post.

This may have been my favorite Monta game. This would have been our best team performance of the year if it hadn't been for crappy games from LRM and Sanders. I've come to expect Udoh to play poorly. While Ellis's defense got worse as the minutes piled on, I thought this was a smarter more subdued performance when he didn't feel as though he had to do too much. Imagine if Ellis were this efficient all the time.
