Go Wizards!

All yours my friend

While my head says to vote for Kirk Hinrich (11 dimes vs 3 TOs), whose heart doesn't tell them to vote for Noodles. Just because?

Split my vote between our starting backcourt.

Honorable mention to Gilbertgoes for thread starter juju.

Wow...this one is a tough. I'm at a complete loss. No one person really stood out over the rest. Great team effort. I leave the rest of you to figure this one out. Could you add "Don't have a clue" to the poll just for me?

I am going with Hinrich. He could have been looking back at the critical mistakes he made against the heat but came out aggressive and played well.

Nick played well but this was almost like a normal game from him lately.

If it wasn't for a few stupid plays from Hinrich, then I would've gone with him. Noodles had a heck of an effort offensively and defensively.

Basically, they both deserve it, but I've been riding the Noodles train for quite a while and it's about time that he gets a POTG nod.

I went with Hinny

Kirby looks a lot more comfortable as a starting PG. Of course, that role won't be available for long.

1 Spence
2 Dom
3 Kirby

captain kirk
hm to blatche tho for limiting his bad shot selection

18 and 11...a double double? Hinny all the way!

Hinny will easily average 16 and 8 the rest of the way in flips offense if he is the full time PG. Which would make him fantastic trade bait given he only has 2 years left. Given Walls' injuries so far...no reason not to make Hinny the starter for a month at PG...play Wall at SG...Young off the bench when Wall is playing.

Give Hinny Shard, Wall/Young, Baltche and Mcgee and he might even average 9-10 assists. Offensively, that is the best 5-6 Hinny has ever had to pass the ball...trade bait is what i would be looking for from Hinny since wall is the man at PG for the next decade.

I don't want Wall playing a single minute at SG.

Don't put ideas in Flip's head. He's very impressionable at his age.

Thorpe.

Dude does so many things that don't show up in the box score.

Those +/- numbers are nuts.

I'll vote vintage Kirk on this one.

Good call!

I went with K-Honey, but it was really close between him, Nick and Dray. There were some instances of being overly ball dominant by Kirby and I'd have liked to see if we could have run some sets through Dray in the post like last year, but he stitched it together for us.

Just a nice all around team effort there with the juju spread right round the dial.

I think I'll start calling Kip K-Honey now. Honey was a typo based on the close proximity of the I and O keys, but then I just decided to go with it.

for a month...build up Hinny licks trade value. I love Hinricha nd think he can play like this often in an offense where he is given more freedom but the Wiz clearly have Wall for the future. You are already got 1 pick with Kirk...go for another. Play kirk at PG for a month and someone will bite.

wall's time will come...time for the wiz to acquire ore assets.

18 & 11 by Hinrich does it for me.

Zinc? Aluminum? Iron? I'll bet we could get a ton of bauxite for Hinrich right now.
