Stat Sheet wise it doesn't show... But Tobias was making plays down the stretch...

He deserves it...

Tobias probably deserves it the most. Vuc got his points but I didn't think he was that effective on either end for most of the game. If he gets it, I'll assume everyone just looked at the box score and saw his point total.

But I voted AG anyway because of the mountain of sh*t he's had to crawl through this season.

Gotta give it to Harris, his effort was outstanding, his late game decision making was clutch, and Vucevic got owned by Lopez and didn't handle double teams well early, so I can't give him the vest.

Vuc scored 16 pts in the second half, 8 pts in the final two and a half minutes of the game, led the team in +/- the entire game and he made that sweet pass for that tobias layup (harris' only points in the 4th) in crunchtime, too. Had our guys made their threes on passes from vuc in the post this would be more obvious, but he still deserves the vest imo.

Vooch

Tobias.

Harris's plays were huge. He had some huge rebounds and key buckets.

Victor's poll selection should be in green font...

Unfortunately for Vucevic's vest quest, the Magic sucked harder than a hoover vacuum on overdrive to start the game, which just made everyone look bad when he was passing out of the post.

8 open threes as a result of Vuc passes out of the post were missed (couple more if you count screens that created open 3s).

Vuvevic easily, Tobias sucked until the last few minutes and actually played really bad on defense against JJ, though Johnson was missing wide open looks all night.

I feel like this board takes Vuc for granted, those hook shots he makes in the paint arent that easy to convert and he had some key offensive rebounds, though he also sucked on defense against Lopez tonight.

Usually it's hard to give these out since everyone plays so well. Now it's tough because everyone played so poorly.

I missed the second quarter so I almost want to give it to Evan. Hey, he looked good when I was watching!

My vote went to AG. His free throws iced the game.

I'll quote OrlandO for response.

And i'll add on that he also had that huge follow up when Vic drove at Lopez and missed the dunk. Vuc had multiple put backs in the second half to keep us from completely falling apart, then hit huge buckets down the stretch (give Tobias credit for making great passes) and then made an excellent pass to the cutting Tobias. 8 points in the final two minutes and not getting the sweater vest would be a shame.

Harris almost gets the nod just because Lopez fouled him, haha.

AG definitely had it in the first half. He played great.

edit: Part of me wants to take away form Vucevic because Lopez had a big night, but the guy was getting crazy calls and making shots he normally doesn't. Vucevic played him fairly well most of the night.

OMG the AG tears are out of control on here! Just relax, he will get more minutes when hes earnt them. Hes still making a lot of mistakes so its ok to bring him along slow. We are trying to win after all, prioritising player development over winning is for losers... literally.

The passive aggressive sulky statements about poor lil AG need to stop. Seriously...

Was nice to see us get a win when it really felt for most of the game that we would lose. Its a sign of a good team when you grit out games like this. Anyone can win when things are rolling...

You relax . Imagine that half the stuff I say on this forum, I'm saying with a smirk, along with a touch of dry humour and sarcasm. No need to release the hounds.
