Appreciate the assist big time!

Much like Steve Clifford, I ended up going to bed before the game even ended because I was feeling sick.

Had to go Vuc , he consistently knocked down shots everywhere. Made few mistakes on offense and defense. Played extended minutes and did not look winded. I wanted to go Fultz as he was close to beating his career high again, but vuc edged him by a hair.

I went Vuc, even though I loved seeing Fultz have another career night. Vuc was rock solid tonight and playing that poised kind of basketball he had post ASB last season.

But big cumberbund for Fultz and how great he looked tonight. It was like the court opened up for him to take more shots tonight, and he made them all.

Honorable mention: Clifford

given his history with health it's a miracle he still is putting himself through all flights in nba. Hopefully he'll drink more water next game.

Was tough, but went with Vuc. If I had known I was gonna break the tiebreaker, I wouldn't have voted at all! They both deserve it and someone should vote Fultz and then stop the voting there so they can both get the vest!

I thought Vooch was solid all night. Good reads, good passes, took advantage ofba player that cant guard him. Great game from Fultz as well but i thought vooch edgrd him out.

Both were good. Fultz was really good though. Only our coaches could stop him this game. Went with Fultz because he was brilliant from beginning to end while Vuc started the game with horrible defensive effort (even though he picked it up later).

Fultz changes the dynamic of this team. I wish Issac was back to see them play together.

I love Vučević and his game overall. That is well stated. In this contest, his offence was excellent. But whereas offense sells tickets, defense wins game.

D'Angelo Russell was held to 5 points on 2-14 shooting. That is the reason Orlando won so handily.

Look: Fultz dominated all ends of the court. He was simply AWESOME. Vučević is an easy cummerbund, but Fultz needs to win this vote without second thoughts.

If this is the future for Orlando at PG (and the Magic can resign him to 5 years on a not-max deal), the PG slot is solved.

I think Evan should be an option since him being out allowed Fultz to dominate.

Vučević was solid, but the eye test should have led to Fultz get 80%+ of this vote.

Still: a vest is a vest whether by one vote or many.

I cannot give a mitten to Iwundu, as he got smoked on defense. I will go with Carter-Williams. For me his grit at the PG/SG slot was very helpful to create a dominant lead. And he was really, really good on his lay-ups. And he was Ace from the FT-line !!!

You can't vote for either of them as neither are options, but to argue that Iwundu got smoked on defense? He was probably our best defender. He had maybe one bad possession all game where he got caught watching the ball and gave up an easy basket when his man cut to the rim. He spent most of the first half on Okogie and most of the second half on Russell. They combined for eight points. Ennis is the guy that spent most of the night on Beasley.

My general point was that Carter-Williams was great and that Fultz is, for me, an undisputed Vest winner.


As to Iwundu: a big test for him in the next game, indeed,.
