There were two options, “Austin Rivers” and “Someone else (and you better have a good reason).” Anyone could have voted for someone else if he or she wanted to do so, but everyone picked Rivers. People undoubtedly complained about the atypical format because that is what people do here, but no one had the gall to vote for someone else. Rivers won 186-0.

I am embarrassed that I was worried it would take time to get back to the incredible level he was playing at
Think about this...because we will probably never see it again. (And as a hater of the OAD, I am in love with this.)
His first game back, Zion sets a Duke record, going 13 for 13 from the field, including his three pointer. I don't want to be the person this summer, next year, 5 years from now...looking back at this game and telling my friend "You should have been there, Jordan Goldwire was awesome." Forest for the trees.
Q "Why do you like Duke, you didn't even go there." A "Because my art school didn't have a basketball team."
Dukelifer does deserve his own opinion ...
... but you also said the game turned when JG came in. Isn’t this a vote for ‘Man of the Match’, not ‘Who Came In And Turned The Game Around’?
Looking at just MOTM, there’s no way it wasn’t Zion. Just Sayin.

Duh!
Shout-out to whomever voted for Goldwire. That's normally my move.
But, tonight, Zion was...On. A. Mission.
Never seen anything like tonight.
In. Fifty. Two. Years.
Gawddamn.
Jordan was the Man of the Moment.
Zion was the Man of the Match.

Even I know the answer to this question...
I voted for Goldwire just to remind some frequent posters on this site that a mere few weeks ago people were saying Goldwire was never going to be more than a practice player. His defense on Boeheim was impressive to say the least.
