Player of the Game - 1/16/09

Post #1 » by **miller31time** » Sat Jan 17, 2009 2:51 am

Here are your nominees from tonight's win against the New York Knicks....

Antawn Jamison - 28pts (9-16) / 8rebs / 3asts / 37mins

Caron Butler - 11pts (3-13) / 4rebs / 7asts / 42mins

Mike James - 19pts (7-13) / 5rebs / 4asts / 36mins

Andray Blatche - 13pts (6-11) / 11rebs / 4ast / 3stls / 27mins

Nick Young - 13pts (6-14) / 3reb / 1ast / 36mins

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Rules

Here's the deal - after each win, we'll have a player of the game thread. You post the top 3 performers (1st place, 2nd place and 3rd place). The top-3 vote-getters will receive points...

1st place = 3pts
2nd place = 2pts
3rd place = 1pt

At the end of the season, I'll tally up the point totals and put it into a thread. We should have a good idea of who was the most valuable player, at least according to Wizards fans.

The poll winner is for posterity only. It has no affect on the recorded winner. If you want your vote to count, post the top-3 performers.

woot woot! it's been too long since i've seen one of these

1. Jamison for doing the usual. It was painful again watching us try to defend their bigs, but without his steady 28 we don't win.
2. Blatche for his beast 1st quarter that got us rolling
3. Young simply because he's been so good recently and this is one of the first opportunities to give him his props.

I can't give it to anybody with a clean conscience. Straight up fluke.

I only caught the second half, so based on what I saw and the box score, I agree with spaceman_E.

Mike James Bitch
Andrey Blatche, because if not for him we would of been killedin the first half (didn't show up in 2nd half)
Caron Butler (because I don't want to give any points to AJ with his horrid defense.)

1. Jamison's steady play.
2. Darius Songaila's pick and roll defense.
3. Nick Young's block & pull-up J. Here's hoping he likes the feeling of defense.
