Definitely DeColo, for exactly the reason you cited. He and Mills are competing for position on the depth chart and Nando had the better game. Joseph will be back in Austin once Leonard returns.
It was a great game, and a lot of players did a good job to keep it close. There were solid rotation players that did a good job (Splitter, Diaw and the first 46 minutes of Neal). But the unsung heros really carried the day for the Black and Silver. Who reaps the benefits of this game the most?
My guess if De Colo, both because he played well and because Mills didn't. Joseph didn't play poorly, but he did not surpass De Colo's level last night.

Poll's up. I also think Bonner may get more minutes now. Blair has been awful at the things he's supposed to do well, while Bonner is gaining ground in that and still out-shooting/spacing him. Also, if Leonard misses any more time, Anderson may back up Green now. He had a great game defensively.
I didn't see the game (sadly) as I was stuck on a 9 hour train trip across Ukraine. But, I'm really hoping Anderson did well enough to warrant more looks from the coaching staff.
Anderson, because he showed moves and hops.
I didn't vote for Splitter because he earned minutes in the Memphis series.
Voted Anderson, definitely the most impressive last night, De Colo's defense was surprisingly ok vs a struggling Wade but he turned it over way to much.
Bonner, De Colo and Anderson have helped their case, Mills and Blair have hurt it and it's quite neutral for the other players.
Just De Colo and Anderson. We all knew Bonner could shoot, and his rebounding wasn't that impressive as the ball just happened to fall into his hands when a Heat player missed a shot.
Pop will continue to use Mills when the team needs speed off the bench, but his shooting performance against the Heat was woeful. Pop's confidence in Patty will have decreased after last night's game.
As for Joseph, he'll be back in the D-league real soon. Not a strong game for him off the bench.
