Still undefeated in this decade.

I went with Kaman, because of the raw numbers he was able to put up, and how him and Baron worked so well today. The reason I stayed away from picking Baron was his poor shot selection, even though Kaman was not the most efficient scorer either. Camby also dominated the boards like always, and again I like the hard work Craig Smith did when he saw the floor.

I went with Camby because he quietly had a great game.

I was impressed with Kaman other than his shot selection. He rebounded, blocked shots, and amazingly had 0 turnovers. He just took too many shots and wasn't efficient. Baron played great and got many people involved. Without him returning in the 4th it could have been a very very ugly finish, however he shot horribly from the field.

Craig once again provided a nice punch off the bench so I'd like to give him some props as well. EJ scored very efficiently too, but I think he shot poorly from the FT line.

I vote for Baron Kaman or Chris Davis
I vote for the 1/2 Baron Davis & the 1/2 Kaman player b/c they are working on all cylinders

I'm a bit partial toward Baron Kaman; Chris Davis needs to pick it up, lol.

The tag line of this thread sums it up. There are seven ways to beat the heat. It's too difficult to really give it to one person, but if I have to pick one, I have to go with Kaman. Showing another consistent performance.

I went with Kaman. He put up his 12th 20 point performance in the last 13 games. He has really hit the boards in the last couple of games (14 in each). Today, he wasn't exactly shooting well from the field, but he was still able to put points on the board. I'm glad that he's finally realizing his talent. He can do some things offensively that most other bigs can't. It's all about having confidence in yourself and playing smart. Also, as Panda pointed out, he also did it with 0 turnovers. This is a rare feat for most players that have the ball in their hand as much as him. He normally averages 3 per game.

Davis. Although his scoring was off, he was the fire, he set the team up, he led them and he scored when it was needed most.

I gave it to Kaman. I can overlook his poor shooting this time, coz he still was a force down there. 0 turnovers is also remarkable. Come on, as well as he has played this season, he has been the star of the game only once so far.

Kind of hard this game because this was a team effort win but I'm going with Crag Smith. With little bench production overall Craig has steeped up.

To me any points you give to Kaman like mention have to be slit with Baron becuase mostly the only shots Kaman made were the ones Baron got to him with a open basket. Baron attacked but he got stuffed or missed easy ones, EG was solid but he needs a freakin assist come one when Thornton has more assists than you there is a problem lol. Camby was nice with rebounding so I almost gave it to him and Butler was nice as well.
