You should put "bench" as an option. Or you can also say, everyone but Raja Bell too.

I say Watson...... His play kept the Jazz in the game, and his play in the second half propelled the Jazz to the win......

He did hit a three, and picked up a charge...... But he still sucked overall......

Yeah. It's tough this game. A lot of players deserve credit tonight. Al was again the workhorse. Millsap was there also. Then you have Watson, Howard and Burks all coming up huge off the bench.

Bell was -10 in +/-, the worst on the team.

I had a hard time deciding as well, this really was a team effort. I decided on Al b/c he played so well in the first half, but it easily could have been Watson, Howard, Burks or Millsap.

Howard had the line off the bench, but Watson was at the heart of this win. Dude is Charles Bronson.

-10. I don't know how ur coaching staff haven't picked up on the fact that because of Raja Bell, our team has to play from behind starting EVERY DAMN HALF!!! You know, for a player to constantly have such a negative impact on a team in such a small amount of time (-10 in 15 mins) is beyond horrible. We've won 4 games. In each on of those games (you can look up the stats if y'all want to) we were behind at the begining and in the 3rd qtr, after having a big push in the 2nd to get close or take the lead. Then late in the 3rd and 4th we have to again make a big push to finally take the game home. That has to end NOW!!!!

I thought Earl's play with Kanter, Favors, Burks and Howard during the third quarter was phenomenal.

Really thought this was the best game of the year for Millsap, Favors, Howard, and Earl, but Millsap contributed a lot in every facet of the game so I went with him.

Earl Watson killed it tonight. Kept the Jazz in the game in the first half, won it in the second. He gives Watson valuable minutes to rest so he can finish the fourth quarter strong.

I think Harris has really finished games well after the 6 minute mark. He isn't turning the ball over, and has played some really good defense late. That is a big plus.

He had four turnovers in the first half, though.

The game didn't start until Watson came in.

Yeah man, that was some good good basketball.

I voted for Earl. He really got things going when he came into the game.
