Silver - Lin, great all-around game.
Bronze - Marvin, welcome back buddy.
HM - Cody, Kemba (despite bad shooting night)

FRANK Kaminsky gets the gold hammer in our first playoff win ever - imagine that
Silver-Lin
Bronze - Marv man on the boards
Edit: tough choice between Lin and Frank both sort of played off each other in that 3rd quarter run. It's a 1A and 1B for me

Lin - major impact during his 26 minutes (his 3PT at 3:45 in the 3Q was the back breaker)
Frank - his 3Q turned the game from tight lead to blowout
Marvin - tenacious rebounding

I'm going with Lin as well. I literally woke the whole neighborhood on that shot.

I honestly have almost no idea who to put where.
Gold: Kemba ... ball movement was one of the keys to the game tonight, especially with Batum out. Kemba set the tone with passing and D. He played hard and smart. Even the shots he missed were good shots. I'm not a huge Kemba fan, but his impact on the game was undeniable.
Silver: Lin ... great defense and solid play. That three after Kaminsky's run was huge. Lin really played well this game and we will need this level from him again next time too.
Bronze: Kaminsky ... Frank was playing hard all game, and it was really nice to see him break out and turn the game around in the 3rd. One of my favorites plays of the game was when he bailed Lin out and made something out of what looked like nothing because of tough Miami D.
HM: Lee, Marv, AL, & Zeller all had nice games too.

Lin did it in many ways, scoring, dribble/penetration, D on dragic, facilitation, like Kemba had 0 TOs.
Marv he's back
Frank really huge stepup for the rook.
HM: Cody, Kemba hustled and played active D

Lin - great game start to finish, even if he does continue to find himself in the paint a lot with nowhere to go.
Frank - what can you say. Perhaps he needs a bit more of a green light from the coaching staff to improvise closer to the paint.
Kemba - this was a tough choice - Marv deserves a hammer and looks better in the box than Kemba, but watching the game it was easy to see what an impact Kemba had in terms of team aggressiveness/intensity and he played very good D. He was continually getting in his team mates' ears to spur them on. Showed a lot of leadership last night.
HM - A lot of guys played very solid, but Marv, Cody stand out in my mind.

I really want to give Frank and Lin a shared gold, just because those two were the catalysts for that epic run that really put us over the top. I just flipped a coin, Lin won, so he's my gold, but Big Frank deserves an extra-shiny Silver hammer. I also really liked how Kemba controlled the game, he didn't force shots, he didn't play hero ball, he let the hot hands do their thing and attacked when he could. It's been fun to see his maturation as a player this year and I'm glad he got his first career playoff win.
Gold: Lin
Silver: Frank
Bronze: Kemba
HM: Marv (welcome to the series, now let's add a few million to those contract offers over these next few games
)

1) Lin#1 for the franchise (that's all he does, no matter what)(thanks shooting form change)
2) Tank (same term, but the effect is totally opposite from what the Lakers were doing last season)(rolled over floppy Wade)(big pride, wouldn't allow himself to get outplayed by Winslow)
3) Marv (Macho's back hustling, rebounding and dunking over the Heat)
HM: Biggie Al: did OK against Whitebackside as starter, his slapping was surprisingly effective
Kemba: got some nice passes in and got Whitebackside into foul trouble.

Agree with this one, with an HM to both Al and Cody.
Lin changed the face of the game. Marv finally starting hitting shots, but his rebounding was critical in this matchup. Frank looked OK in the 1st half, but his run in the second helped us stretch and maintain our lead. His energy was good throughout. He may be a better player starting than coming off the bench.
Al was the guy keeping us close early, when Miami threatened to go on one of those spastic runs where they hit every shot. Cody played strong interior D.

Loved the team win. Toss up between Lin and Frank for the gold but I really think that Frank finally coming out and being aggressive really turned the tide so:
Gold: Frank: Play angry Frank!
Silver: Lin: We need this type of game from him every game this series!
Bronze: Kemba: Controlled the game even not shooting great
HM: Marvin: Loved that he constantly worked and that his shot was finally falling!!!
