16. Be2
so Be2 is the only option leading to

 
16... Qxg2
Qxg2 and threatening to take the rook, so he moves to e1

 
17. Re1
I didn't like the look of that bishop and rook lining up on my king so I decided I had time enough to spare a tempo for Kd7

17... Kd7
notice that axb3 isn't possible for the threat of Bxb3 checkmate.

 
18. Nxd5
and so he takes my mighty bishop out.

 
18... Nxa1
and I go gobbling up more material.
