No doubt. Hit some huge shots, played solid defense, game winning free-throw.

Hayward all the way...... I was a little tempted to voe for Bell, though....... And I thought Howard did a decent job on Monta Ellis for a couple of key possessions.......

18 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals-- this is Gordon's coming out game.
It was a team effort, but Gordon definitely took control of this game.
Raja was #2.
Also, Hayward will be our 7th player of the game winner in 8 games. On one side, its amazing that a different player will step up every game-- on the other, I kind of just wish Utah had a go to guy that would take the majority of these.

I'm sorta getting the vibe that Hayward seems to be pretty good in late game situations, and while some hate Big Al, he is good late in games, but when he is getting double teams and bad looks, Hayward might be a nice 2nd choice to close.
