Victory Cigar Celtics vs Mavs 1/25/09
I had to go with KG. He took Dirk out of the game early and really led what was a dominate performance.

Re: Victory Cigar Celtics vs Mavs 1/25/09
This is a tough one for me becuase so many players played well. I was leaning towards Ray who had a great shooting game and really got us off to a great start, KG played well on both ends, but I think it was Rondo and his penetration and dishing that really set us up for the win. This was really a team effort and I can see any of the 3 getting it, but I think my vote would be 1. Rondo, 2. Ray, 3. KG.

Ray put the game away early. Garnett made Kartoffelpuffer out of Dirk. Rondo orchestrated the massacre.
Any of those three is worthy of this high honor.

KG IMO, he dominated in the both sides. House, Ray and Rondo were great too 

Who would win one-on-one in HORSE?
Bird: Nobody beats me in H-O-R-S-E. Besides, Magic cant shoot.
Magic: Larry, you'd have no chance against me one-on-one. I've got too many ways to beat you. Plus, as slow as I am, I'm still faster than you.

Re: Victory Cigar Celtics vs Mavs 1/25/09
Tough decision between KG, Rondo, Ray and Eddie. But I am going with Garnett for his defense on Dirk!

Re: Victory Cigar Celtics vs Mavs 1/25/09
It's tight, but I'm giving it to KG because I don't think he gets as many of these as he deserves.

Re: Victory Cigar Celtics vs Mavs 1/25/09
Four players played GREAT.
KG's early defense completely took Dirk out of his game,
but Scal took over from there, and for moments, even Davis had Dirk.
Jason Terry (27 pts.) did the bulk of his damage against the Celtics second unit.
I'd rank them:
1. Ray Allen 23 pts. (9-13 FG, 1-1 FT), 5 Rebounds, 7 Assists, 1 steal, 1 block
2. Rajon Rondo 13 pts. (6-10 FG, 1-2 FT), 7 Rebounds, 14 Assists, 4 Steals, 2 TO's, 1 Foul
3. Kevin Garnett 23 pts. (11-17 FG, 1-3 FT), 2 Rebounds, 4 Assists, 1 Steal, 1 TO, 2 Fouls
4. Eddie House 23 pts. (8-14 FG, 0-1 FT), 2 Rebounds, 2 Assists, 2 Steals

+1 on this. wnet to the game today. The first quarter KG had Dirk so screwed up he didnt know what to do. Jkidd is starting to really look like an old man.

Re: Victory Cigar Celtics vs Mavs 1/25/09
And Rondo made him look that way. His numbers do not descibe how he dominated the game. KG was tremendous and Ray continues to just be like a video game but I thought Rondo was the standout in a game of them. What the hell happened to that team?

KG. Set the tone and anchored the defense.
