Great performances for a great win. Who do you think takes it home? Durant put up points, Westbrook hit huge shots, Thabo played insane D, and some other role players played BIG roles.

Player (points/rebounds/assists)
Durant (32/9/5)
Westbrook (24/1/7)
Sefolosha (2/9/4)
Collison (10/6/0)

Despite very good efforts from Durant and Westbrook, I really have to give this nod to Thabo personally. He held Wade (~30 ppg on 45% shooting) to a forced 22 points on around 30% shooting with 6 turnovers (twice as many as his season average).

Durant was great and Westbrook was clutch, but to me Thabo is the guy that turned those from being games that are solid fantasy outings into a great win against the #2 team in the East.

yep, Thabo gets my vote. If he ever gets his shot right he is going to be special.

Every broadcast I see on league pass with another team's annoucing crew they just cannot talk enough about Sefalosha, I love that he's building a reputation around the league. He's been frustrating other team's first options all year but tonight showed that Miami really does not have many other options so Thabo really frustrated their entire offense.

Much better playing with the lead in the fourth quarter from the entire team as well, it was a good game.

Love what Thabo did but I think Durant did more, we're just used to him having performances like this. KD was great offensively but he was active on defense too and was a one man wrecking crew on offense until Westbrook got it going a bit.

I voted Durant.

Just because hs ie our star and we expect him to play to a certain level doesn't mean that his performance should be rated differently than the opther guys

30, 9, 5 is an MVP line.

Thabo a close second
