Very tough vest to vote on. So many guys played well tonight. Gonna go with Vuc though. He was his usual efficient self on offense but he defended the rim so well tonight which in turn helped out our perimeter defense. Honorable mention to AG with his all around game tonight.

To help the Vučević narrative, he held Carter and Lopez to ZERO points on a combined 0-6 shooting. Vučević also held Carter and Lopez to a combined 4 rebounds.

Vučević wass truly dominant in this game.

Close vote. Given that Gordon and Vučević both played extremely well on both sides of the court, hard not to argue with the result. Whatever it becomes!

Still: Vučević's stats were better on both sides of the ball. Looks like this is about the eye-test (again).

Vučević wass truly dominant in this game.

In only 26 minutes he finished with more points, assists, rebounds, and blocks/steals than Carter, Lopez and Markkanen combined. Absolutely stuffed Markkanen twice at the rim and got Carter benched for the entire second half with a season low in minutes played. Dominated the Bulls' bigs. Great game for Vuc.

This may be the finest season in Vučević's career. In case we do keep him, I hope he proves me wrong and produce even better as he ages.

In terms of the age thing, he doesn't rely on athleticism so he can be effective in his 30s.

I'm not saying he can't be effective, just that it is something only time will tell.
