I'm back baby! Apologize in advance if the order is out of whack as, I didn't get to see or listen to the game. That said, I think the choice is clear here - Redd.

I refuse to give the player of the game to anyone who shoots 29 times.

Since I didn't see the game I'll give it to the shoot first PG with a 9/0 assist to turnover ratio.

By the way, great game by Bell with a +18 and WTF? to Yi with a -9

I have to go with that new guy named YI-Bog-Mo-Ivey. He was 14-29 from the field. Redd was only 13-29.

Obviously it's Redd.

The people who have voted for Bogut should be Named & Shamed!!!

They guy scores 37 points, with 5 boards and 5 assist and the team wins by double digits and people here still find a way to **** on him. The Redd hate on this board is becoming unbeliveable.

I, for some odd reason, pity Gadz everytime I see him on the court...he reminds me of a squirrel sometimes...they just run, stop...wonder what's going on...and then run again....

That's COLD!

Redd is teh player of the game. Though it is nice to see Bobby starting to get his game together a bit.

I voted for Bobby because we got a good game out of him.....we need a consistent 12-17ppg out of Bobby every night.

But I'd probably pull that one back and vote for Bogut. In the last few years we've been embarrassed by Indy many times and Jeff Foster has owned Bogut.

Tonight Foster started out banging Bogut around and taking him out of the game again like he has in the past. But in the second half Bogut stepped it up. He didn't go into a shell and he started bringing it. And that opened up things more from the outside.

For me, tonight was a huge step forward in Bogut's development.

I felt the same exact way and voted for Drew.

I voted for Redd. He had a good, solid game. He would have shot 50%(13/26) if he didn't start throwing up three's at the end of the game to try to get 40. So he basically shot 50%. He had a very good game.

Without Redd putting pressure on the defense, I doubt if Bogut would have had more than three baskets. He did nothing in the straight low post (but was good on the slash).

Bogut did do a good job passing out of the post tonight. He got rid of the ball quickly as the double team was coming. You can tell he is going to get better at this every game that he sees these double teams. It really seemed that Redd took advantage of Indiana focusing their defense on Bogut. Good ball movement tonight all around.
