Tobias Harris on the game-winner celebration: "I was surprised. I didn't know Vooch could run that fast."

Nik Vucevic said he had never hit a game-winner at any level of basketball before tonight.

I say Shabazz. His 3's were huge for us. He was a nice spark off the bench.

This is tough, Vuc was consistent and sealed it but Bazz kept us in the game by himself. Co-sweater Vest?

Vuc made me forget what a bad game that was by nailing the walk off. Napier came up big with clutch shots, but a good performance + game winner will always get the vest vote from me.

Now I'm not going to say Frye deserves the Sweater Vest, and I voted for Napier. But if there was a Fat Guy Cape award for 2nd place, he'd get it from me tonight.

All props to Bazz, but giving this one to Vuc on his first game winner and overall good game off the bench.

Vuc was dope, but Bazz saved us a few times before that GW.

“I probably was just running around like an idiot,” Vucevic said. “But in the moment, you don’t really think about it. You just want to go out with your teammates and celebrate. It’s a great moment.”

Tough one. If we were down by 1 when Vuc hit the game winner I would have went with him. Napier just kept coming up big in the meat of the game time and time again, so had to go with him.

Vuc won it for us but this game wouldn't of not been close without Napier. Helluva coming out game. This will light a fire in Elf.

Shabazz. Kept us in it to give Vuc a chance at the winner.

My heart says Vučević, but my head realises it must be Napier. When Oladipo went down, that it would be Napier to play huge SG minutes to keep the win alive.

Robin-props to Hezonja for leading the team in ± with a +11. He made half of Orlando's FTs, and without those, well, this is a loss.

I tied the race by giving my vote to Napier, 16-16. If he didn't have a shooting night like this, we would have lost. Happy that Vuc made the buzzer beater, but the win was made possible by Bazz. Kudos to him. This shouldn't have been a close game, by the way.
