I know everyone here is going to vote for Sessions because of his game winning shot, but CV and Bogut had unbelievable games. 20/10/5 from your starting center is as much as you can hope for.

As great as Villanueva and Bogut were, this one goes to Sessions. Not only did he hit the game winner but his great hustle on the jump ball to steal the pass from the Wizards made that play possible.

I voted for CV, he was well rested after last nights fiasco of a performance.....actually Ramon would have been my 4th pick, although I love how he is playing.

If you're an Orlando fan you can hope for 30/20/5.

Okay well 44/22/8 on 18-27 shooting from your starting frontcourt is most you can hope for.

CV and Bogut had very good performances but the 4th belonged to Ivey and Sessions. Those guys fed off each other and put us in the game after being 10 down with 7 minutes left.
So, I doffs me cap to Ramon. Ivey shot like a guard possessed but the distribution, spark and energy - and the 2 clutch plays to win the game - belonged to Sessions.
A very, very enjoyable win.

From the Wizards RealGM game thread:
"Matchup Of the Night:
Our matchup of the night spotlights one of the best defensive centers in the NBA and one of the best offensive centers in the NBA. Bogut has had his way with the Wizards defense the past few times we've played the Bucks, but in most cases, Brendan has done a good job on him (Bogut getting the majority of his points when Haywood is off the floor). If Brendan can keep Australian sensation off the boards, and in check in the post, then one of the Bucks most consistent and legitimate offensive threats is taken away."

Damn that's more props than any media have given him since college.

For the second night in a row, I'm going with Ramon Sessions.

Ramon Sessions because he cures a previously incurable disease with every dribble

I never usually give the homer vote, but this time I'm going to. 20/10/5/1/1 only two games back after a broken nose, I'm not going to ignore that.

I am going to give it to Ramon. He brings great energy to the game and seems to ignite this Bucks team whenever he is on the floor.
Props to Bogut though for having good awareness and making a great but simple pass to Ramon Sessions for the game winner.
