Sanders was tempting but 25 points on 13 shots from a guard is just ridiculous.

Also, you have to vote for condiments whenever possible.

Mayo, and while the points were a critical difference, it was the other parts that got the Bucks going. He did a real nice job of feeding the other guys, he got the final run going, he played decent defense. His best game as a Buck?

I thought this was one of Knights better games as a Buck. Distributed well, fewer head down blind rushes. Give him some credit for this one.

Larry was a defensive force. He needs to convert on more of the put backs - inspite of Noel.

In a team where no one defends or rebounds, 'skillet grip' hands is king.

Mayo for me, but Larry did a lot of nice things as well.

I don't know if anyone else has proposed this but I've started referring to OJ as Miracle Whip, because he sort of seems like the Mayo we know from last year but without all the fat and calories.

Sanders/Mayo. Really tough to decide because both were great for different reasons. Voted Sanders, though
