Z-Bo no doubt. Made some key shots towards the end of the game. Z-Bo + Camby is a great combo.

Thornton had an excellent game and I'm glad to see him bounce back from the poor performances against New Orleans & Denver, but I gave the overall edge to Randolph. I would have went with Baron for being clutch in the waning moments of the game until he chucked up 2 3's and allowed the Heat to get back into the game. Randolph took some shots that I didn't like, but he scrapped down low and worked for baskets. He was active on the offensive rebounds and knocked down a huge 3 pointer. He looked really good out there.

I agree completely. I would have chosen Baron even with his poor shooting night. If it wasn't for those 2 3pt chuckers and the bad inbounds play I would give it to Baron. Why shoot for a 3 when you're up 3 and could drive in to make it 5 points.. which still leads to two possessions ..

I voted Camby. Dude was relentless on the boards and had key blocks. I honestly think that the way he started set the tone and without that, we would not have won.

I voted Randolph, because he was just beasty tonight. Like MJ said, he made me a believer!

But I definitely feel what l2k is saying about Camby. The more I watch him, the more I love the way he plays. He boards, he plays D, but most importantly, he hustles. Plus, he's a true team guy...anybody else notice how he rolled his ankle late, but went back in to play D when Dun asked him to? That's a player right there. He is such an important part of anything good we got brewin' here.

So having said all that....I still voted Randolph :lol:

I'm going with Marcus. Dude was a beast down low defensively.

I'm going with Zach, he scored 6 points in the last few minutes for us.

Marcus with ll Z-Bo did Marcus saved the game with the heavy contested shot by D-Wade. I'm pretty sure if Camby went low-post instead of playing Wade we would have loss.

Al and Z-Bo get close second for their numbers.

Baron gets a sandwich for his last couple of plays.

Baron had a chance to put the game away for us, we were up 6 or so and if he would have hit the 3 then would would have been up 9. If he would have hit a 3 to put the game away then he would have got my vote.
