Tonight's cigar is a tough choice. I would have gone with Rondo if NY's defense wasn't as penetrable as (insert your mom joke here). I went with Powe cuz I thought there was a chance Curry and Randolph were gonna walk all over us. Not so. Randolph had a nice stat line, but he fouled out and was for the most part, a none factor.

was this even an NBA sanctioned game? I mean honestly do games like these count in the standings? I'd rather just not play the Knicks at all and not count these games. Just horrible basketball. And no I have no idea why I put this hear but I don't feel like anyone deservers a cigar from Red for playing some street ball team.

I went with Powe over Rondo. A hat tip for Tony Allen, as well.

The Show! I'm loving this ****! Leon has been playing so well since he got a chance. All that man needed was a shot at being a solid player, and I'm happy he got it!

Yeah, tough one last night but I'm gonna go with The RePowe Man. At one point early in the season I was ready to trade him but that is out of the question. He was removed any concern I once had about his ability to play the 4 and even the 5 in the NBA.

I don't want to take anything away from Powe or Rondo but not even looking at the box score the difference in the game was Tony Allen. Rondo, frankly, did what I have come to expect him to do. Maybe a little more scoring but mostly because the Knicks don't have anyone who can guard him.

Tony taking the ball to the rim and breaking down what passed for defense by the Knicks last night as well as signature plays on both ends with that block on Randolph and that sick dunk on the House miss. Tony's night.

Could really go with any of 4 guys. But I went with Rondo. Really liked the way he played last night.

Since there can't be a 3 way tie(Rondo,Ray,Powe) I'm going with Rondo. He set people up all night and even had some good fakes that got himself easy shots.

there wasn't a three way tie, the polls are sometimes messed up and for some reason showed Rondo wiht 21% of the vote even though he had two less votes then Ray Allen.

Whom now still holds a 1 vote lead over Rondo post cfan vote.

I only mention this because it's really weird that the poll machine did this and I've seen similar situations to it here and there. It's odd and actually something I wouldn't expect RealGM to suffer from. Someone should fix that sometime if it's fixable.
