Jalen Suggs
Goga
Paolo

Have to vote for Jalen, his defense on Haliburton was the difference. Dude started hot and we went on the run early. It is Jalen Suggs!

Gave it to Suggs, played hard and gave us a big lead from the opening tip.
Paolo
Goga for his defense, but Mo was good too

I went with Paolo but I am reconsidering it. It should be Suggs.

Jalen got my vote tonight.

Not sure if he was the MVP, the guy that contributed the most for the win in terms of numbers, but maaaaan he was impressive tonight.

Suggs seems to find a way to eliminate all bad habits and deficiencies from his game and doing it in an impressive and convincing way.

I went with Paolo for the vest but I totally understand if the vote is won by Suggs. Just signifies how impressive of a team win this was.

I voted Paolo but reconsidered when I started typing.

Suggs because he came out of the gates to set the tone on both sides of the ball. Paolo was close though.

I voted for Paolo.

Paolo
Franz
Goga

Paolo was going strong the whole game. No half-ass hoping for a whistle moves or countless contested midrange jumpshots.
His offensive game looked a lot more well-rounded, he even appeared on the receiving end of pick and roll actions... which I have rarely seen before.
His defence was solid.
I would go so far the big men help in the paint against Haliburton was key for the win.

IPacers tried to play as always. Set a pick for their playmaker and he will score from close range or kick out open shooters.
If you rewatch Haliburtons shots, or just his shot chart you may recognize that our bigs (especially Goga) did a great job providing help defence. As far as I remember our only guard who was able to stop him (from finishing in the paint) one-on-one was AB when he blocked him.

Suggs played a good game, but was only fifth best player in my book (Gary Harris was 4th).

Voted Suggs, he set the tone both offensively by scoring 9 of our team's first 11 pts of the game & defensively by strapping Halliburton
