Who was the player of the game against the Mavs?

(Haven't watched this one yet, so I'm just throwing a bunch of names up there)

PotG Running Totals:
Alec Burks: 1
Derrick Favors: 1
Gordon Hayward: 1
Al Jefferson: 3
Enes Kanter: 1
Josh Howard: 1
Paul Millsap: 7
Earl Watson: 2

(current through game 17)

Normally I would say Millsap, but he got owned by Odom, so I'm going with Kanter. He did some serious work in his limited minutes, but was put into the game way too late. He actually looked like he knew how to score for once. If he had some more of Al's minutes, I think this game would have stayed closer. Al had a great box score, but he was lazy and slow. Hay had a pretty good game too.

I disagree that Al had a good box score. 19 points on 19 FGA speaks volumes about the kind of game he had.

Kanter!! Last night he really made al jeff look expendable. Al is a average rebounder and poor defender. I can't wait for our bigman rotation to be favors,millsap,kanter and then maybe all of them can get the playing time they deserve these 11 minutes games are not enough. Kanter is a brick wall he doesn't get pushed around.
