Player of the Game (11/25/08)

[miller31time]

Here are your nominees from tonight's win against the Golden State Warriors....


Caron Butler - 35pts (13-19) / 8rebs / 6asts / 37mins / +23


Antawn Jamison - 25pts (11-20) / 11rebs / 2asts / 38mins / +25


Andray Blatche - 25pts (11-18) / 12rebs / 5asts / 5blks / 2stls / 29mins / +21


JaVale McGee - 14pts (7-15) / 5rebs / 2asts / 20mins / +3


Nick Young - 8pts (4-7) / 5rebs / 1stl / 21mins / +8

The Rules

Here's the deal - after each win, we'll have a player of the game thread. You post the top 3 performers (1st place, 2nd place and 3rd place). The top-3 vote-getters will receive points...

1st place = 3pts
2nd place = 2pts
3rd place = 1pt

At the end of the season, I'll tally up the point totals and put it into a thread. We should have a good idea of who was the most valuable player, at least according to Wizards fans.

The poll winner is for posterity only. It has no affect on the recorded winner. If you want your vote to count, post the top-3 performers.

My vote is Tapps

But since he isn't a play and I want my point to count.

AB
CB
AJ

Can you make this poll so we can recast our votes. I voted other and I want to vote AB.

Yup. Try now.

Agree w/ Tapscott - this was his night. But since we have to choose a player, I'll go with Caron (still working to earn his 'Tough Juice' title back)

[miller31time]

Guys, just to let you know, the poll is for a general consensus of who the player of the game was. It doesn't have an affect on the tally that I'm doing, or the actual winner.

I go by the posts that detail who the 1st, 2nd and 3rd place finishers were.

Your the bomb. Thanks

1st ... Blatche .... Is this the familiar tease or possible breakout performance?
2nd ... Butler ... On fire and turned a comfortable win into a blowout
3rd ... Jamison ... Would like to give it to D-Mac or Dee Brown, but can't overlook AJ's performance

[JWizmentality]

1. Blatche
2. Butler
3. Tapscott

1. Blatche
2. Butler
3. Jamison

Blatche's D was ridiculous tonight.

[bulletproof_32]

1. AB's lateral quickness.
2. CB's wingspan.
3. AJ's power.

[MJG]

Blatche, then Butler, then Jamison. Probably will be the clearest 1-2-3 PotG vote we have all year.

[Scabs304]

I'm only voting for Andray Blatche because I don't want to give any other player points.

I had to give it to AB the PF/PG.

[Soup's Uncle]

1.) AB
2.) CB
3.) AJ

Kudos on the BIG lineup. Kudos NOT playing Etan. I like Tapscott already.

I'm only voting for Andray Blatche because I don't want to give any other player points.

I don't think that is allowed in the tally. If you don't vote for 3, then your pts don't count because they would effectively cause you one vote to count more then it should.

2.) CB

i'm surprised ej couldnt see that almost every time the wizards hit a good rhythm etan was on the bench.

[BigA]

I can understand everyone voting for Blatche, but I'm going with Butler first, with Blatche and Jamison tied for second. It was good to see Caron show up with a great all-around game. Not turning it over, hitting a few from outside, and scoring alot of points in the paint.
