With a team win, it makes sense to go with the heart of the team.

Paolo had 9 points in the last 3:30 of the game. He hit a 3, got a and 1, but missed the FT, and then he hit 4 more FTs.

Went with Franz, ultimately. Purely offensively he's the one that didn't take or make the clutch shots in the end, but he held us steady throughout the game to keep us in a close one so there was crunch time to begin with. But the main reason is defense, I feel like Franz had the biggest impact defensively of these three yesterday (this is also why I'm gonna put Suggs third because he got cooked by Mitchell like everybody else in the end).

Franz's box score even missed a block for him because I'm sure he had at least 3; 2 are in the highlights, a blocked Strus 3 at 8:11Q1, then immediately a Morris fast break layup at 7:40Q1, and I know for sure he caught one of Garland or Mitchell on a layup attempt later. Also 11/11 from the line was huge from Franz to find some efficient offense. So:

V: Franz
C: Paolo
M: Jalen

I don't really think you could go wrong picking Paolo, Franz or Suggs. They were all huge in their own ways.

I personally went with Suggs because I think three pointers are such a huge momentum swing play, especially for the crowd.

But Paolo and Franz were both incredible and I could see the case for either one of them.

And lollypops to Fultz and Cole for both playing really well in a game the team absolutely needed it.

Paolo
Franz
Suggs

in reality, we couldn't win without either of them.

If you told me we'd have 3 wins and Fultz would have more sweater vest points that JI I'd call you a liar. Yet here we are.

Paolo
Franz
Suggs

But this was truly a team win

Interesting how Franz wins the vest points playoff arguments after that doo-doo game 7.

Numbers are numbers, rules are rules.
