A tough one here. A lot of our guys played very well tonight but Elfrid set the tone from the start playing great defense on the guards and was super aggressive on offense. Vest him up!

Back to .500 after changes to the lineup. Hmmm.. Scott Skiles? Skiles wants a vest this season...

A good sign towin a game by 20 and no one had a super crazy good game. Solid effort all around. No vote for 1 player as this was just a good team win

Definitely Payton, really great to seem him playing so well. Also wanna give some love to Tobias, I thought he played really well on both ends tonight.

Elfrid! He may be starting to find a comfort level.

That and Skiles is allowing him to break away from the offensive scheme. Not surprised that he and Dipo are doing much better but Fourny isn't getting the same looks.

Elfrid Payton. Just happy to see guys have consecutive good games. Hopefully we can start to build some consistency.

Last night was a fantastic win. Skiles had the team ready to go and they responded. Dipo is going to become a star faster off the bench than a starter and I think he has accepted his new role.

Nah I honestly think it's only a matter of time before Dipo gets inserted back into the starting lineup...It looks like Skiles allowed him and Payton to play more loose at the discretion of playing hard and aggressive. Not only were they finishing at the rim better, they had great chemistry, and both were making great plays with the ball.

My vote goes to Payton, excellent game for him. Dipo Harris and Frye also played extremely well on both ends. Jason Smith continues to impress every single game.

This right here is the key. First time this year we have had back-to-back games from Victor and EP. Has translated to Ws both times. We are just a hard team to beat when EP plays well. Kind reminds me back with the 2008 Celts. Whenever Rondo would play well, that team was unbeatable.

It strikes me that Payton has probably been receiving the most slack for his play and yet he leads the team in sweater vests.

Sounds like the mark of inconsistency.

If he scores more than 0 points against Boston, I'll be happy.

Skiles didn't change the system.

The difference was the spacing and lanes available created by Frye/Nicholson and the limited usage of Oladipo with the ball in his hands (possible by staggering him and Payton).

Fournier got plenty of wide open looks vs Bucks and in fact tied for most shots attempted (12). The game was a blow out - which is why he only played 28 minutes. Vs NY, he played limited minutes but that was because he was having a terrible shooting night 1-9 not because he wasn't getting the same looks, his shots vs NY were primarily those same wide open looks he normally makes - just wasn't hitting anything....but the system did not change

yea, its definitely inconsistency...but you get the sense that will come with repetition and comfort with this system

8th vest winner?
