The 4 best performances from all of Sunday’s Game 1s in the NBA Playoffs. 

As I was watching the four playoff games on Sunday, I wondered what it would be like if UFC president Dana White was watching these games himself. Who would he offer the “Performance of the Night Bonus” to.

For those who don’t follow the UFC, it’s pretty simple. There’s a fight card containing (x) amount of fights and if there is a epic knockout, phenomenal performance, or just an exciting fight for five rounds between two fighters, a lot of times, White will offer a performance of the night bonus.

I Wondered who I thought played the best in each game from Sunday and who I would reward the performance of the night bonus for one player in each of the four matchups from Sunday.

The criteria for the Performance of the  Night are as follows. Your team has to win, and you have to impact the games on more than one level. Here’s who I decided for the performance of the night in order from 4-1, 1 being the best performance overall.
