This was extremely tough because Redd was great, Simmons was great, Bogut great, and Sessions a pleasant surprise.

I gave it to Redd though, just because I tore him a new one in a thread today, and he went out and had a great all-around game tonight.

It's hard to ignore the huge contributions from Sessions and Simmons but Redd was nothing short of fantastic tonight. He deserves the honor.

Simmons will NEVER have a game like this again. Vote goes to him. Buckskinsfan, what triggered this game? New found confidence? Hired a hooker last night?

It was Redd, but I gave Bobby the love cause he doesn't get much on here.

My vote went to Isiah Thomas for some inspired substitutions throughout the game.

How can you guys not vote Sessions?

The Knicks were shooting 60% and Crawford was going off until Sessions came in......

And I'll maintain Sessions made the final game winning play by blocking Q's shot at the buzzer.....

Ramon = heart transplant.

Between him and Bogut, there might be legit fire for this squad in the future.Fire enough to light Redd.... I think so.

I'll take Sessions and his 6:1 assist to turnover ratio. Well done.

Didn't watch the game, but did Sessions really look that good?

He was like Stockton to Malone all in one.

Ramon Sessions > Chris Paul

I didn't watch game yet (I will when I get home) but we don't win without Bogut and he had nice stats so it is Bogut for me.

Because not everyone here has hatred blinding us from reality. Redd is the player of the game, I don't understand how anyone could vote otherwise.

...says the guy who was freaking out in the game thread because he was unable to watch the game.

Redd, Simmons with a close 2nd.

right, because if I had been able to see the game (my link stopped working halfway through the 3rd quarter), it probably would've made Redd's 36 points, 9 assists, 6 rebounds on over 50% shooting look worse
