A lot of uncomfortable board warriors here lately who can't stand to see ORL going near .500 :lol:

It honestly makes it even more fun to read here :wink:

I voted AG for what it's worth. I just saw him playing within himself, and with a lot of maturity last night. He was doing all the right, little things that add up. I'm really happy to see him play at a high level with efficiency, and keep improving from there. It was hard to pass up voting for T Ross and Vooch tho.

Even the Ross three late in the game was initiated by a fantastic screen from Vučević. As Vučević rolled away from the ball, he absorbed two defenders which was the opening for Ross.

He was an offensive threat even when he was not scoring.

Vučević has a ridiculous plus/minus of +21 with a hyper efficient 10-19 (3-6 3-ball), which is an eFG% north of 60%. AND he did that whilst getting fouled (and he hit his FTs!).

This all happened in a context where Embiid was held to a horrible shooting line, and two TOs forced against.

Vučević was Mr. Everywhere in this game. He got my vote.

Vuc is our best player, hands down.

At first I thought Embiid must have broken Isaac's hand on the rim. But Isaac's immediate enthusiasm and the push of the ball after the rebound, I was like "WOW".

At first I thought he cupped the ball right out of Embiid's hand similar to that AG block his rookie year. Looking at the replay Im just happy Glankles shoulder didnt pop out of its socket.

I’ve been a big critic of Vuc, but I voted for him and I gotta say his play of late has been exceptional. He’s really responding to Cliff and has improved a lot in a number of areas. He’s carried us to wins too.

Glad he’s proving me wrong.
