I won't say a single MVP, but I'll say four in no particular order:
Brown - came up big in the fourth and started the winning run for us;
Big Al - hit some crazy big shots in the fourth after a subpar first half;
White - was a very steady presence for us all game and hit some daggers for us in the fourth; and
Smart - similarly was steady for us all game and a major reason we stayed within striking distance, as well as hitting some daggers in the fourth and playing great D all night long (most of Steph's points came off of switches and not Smart).
All four deserve major props. And while Tatum didn't have the best game, he still played very well as a playmaker with 13 assists to 2 TOs and good D. PP played well, too. Only GWill and Timelord had average to below average games.
I only voted once, by accident, but I voted for Brown (on purpose) for that reason. I feel like he took control of the offense when the Celtics were down and turned things around, and then White and Horford spring-boarded from there.
