Good effort from Hunter Adam.

Hunter gets my vote, thought he had a very good game. A couple of impressive defensive plays and the great cut for the dunk.

Have more confidence in Adam down the stretch than Bailey.

It might be time for the board to step up its game with regard to this award. Instead of having nightly conversations about who looked hopeful in a losing cause let’s hold the award for any starter or reserve who wills us to a win? Perhaps a Colt 45 is too cheap to be the award for such an achievement? These Cats do not yet know how to finish a game. I’m certain that they can but they need to experience it to gain the confidence. Interestingly, the Warriors have forgotten how to finish games and it is kind of like starting over to get it back. I thought the Cats showed lots of improvement yesterday, just not in the last five minutes. That’s the next step. Is there someone who can lead the way?

Perhaps I should be more clear. Hunter gave a good effort. So did several others. No award last night. Especially not when the opposing bench outscored ours 30-13. Lawal is what a .45 winner should look like.

This is a highly coveted award. I don't think it would be fair to those who so ardently seek it to change the criteria in the middle of the season. Something like this should be deliberated by the Board of Directors (raptorcat) during the off season.

Years ago, I came up with this award to recognize the hard work and achievements of the non-starters on a given night. Djcat is suggesting an MVP-type award for the game. I am against changing the criteria that we've utilized for years on end.

Hunter is the winner of last night's game.
