I will go with Leon obviously. With Perk out he will have to step up even more!

Leon played some great minutes in this one.
16 points and 8 rebounds, and he managed to get the game winner.

Leon is my vote. Once again MINNIE gets robbed of a win from the Celtics.

Master Powe definitely gets the nod. I'm guessing he's not getting the starting spot ahead of Scala because Doc has a set rotation. Scala is playing the role of KG haha.

yeah is there a bigger dropoff in the league from starter to backup than KG to Scal? lol, that's sad. I've still yet to figure out what Scal brings to the team that says he should start and play 20 mins. wtf????

oh, and yeah, Powe of course.

I dunno ... I thought Rondo hitting that pullup jumper was just as big actually. This one is hard. It's great that the past few games all the victory cigars have been going to role players though. Bodes well as long as everyone's healthy come playoff time.

Why only 8 replies after such an exciting win?

I'm giving it to The Show as well. He deserved this one.

Much like Bruno I thought this was a fun game to watch. The only problem I had with it was the refs.

This game was ugly, but it was still a win and that's what is really important. Powe had a beautiful lay in at the end of the game, but ray ray was fouled and should have been at the line for the win.

In terms of who I'd give the cigar to I guess Powe because he recovered from the no-call and made that lay-up right before the buzzer.
Does anyone actually believe that either Mike Brown or Doc Rivers have done any coaching during the series, or in their undistinguished careers?
