This is exactly how I saw it. I think Ware+Malik were our MVPs.. Wares 2nd foul was when UM made their run.
In general, I don't necessarily think all of us have the same interpretation of "mvp" or vote in the same way. (Not really a big deal) ....I think some vote--- "how did they play vs what is our expectation level for that specific player."
Simply, put, and lord as always, IMO-- Gunn isn't the MVP last night. He IS the guy who played the most above their expectation level. That doesn't equate to MVP to me, but no worries that others vote that way.
