    We have legitimate nominees in almost every category, how many can we get?

    MVP - Harden (current ranking #10)
    MIP - Harden
    Best rookie - D'Mo (current ranking #9)
    Defensive player - Asik (current rebounding ranking #6)
    Best coach - McHale
    Best GM - D'Mo Senior:grin:

    What are our odds?

    Daryl Morey is GM/Executive of the Year.

    All Moneyball, looking at objective numbers to find undervalued assets in Harden, Asik, Lin, Parsons, Robinson, Delfino, basically the entire roster was remade.

    Took a team that McFail had an epic collapse for last year, completely retooled it where only 1 player remained (Parsons), and are now going to the playoffs.

    McHale is not coach of the year for the same reason Vinny Del Negro don't get credit for being bad coaches on very talented teams going to the playoffs. Both teams would be even better with average to good coaching

    I think Morey might have a chance for executive since he got harden.

    MIP: Omer Asik

    I think Asik actually has a better case for MIP than Harden.

    Please please please don't win the MIP. Give it to Vucevic or someone else instead.

    MIP should go to Asik because he didn't get a chance with the bulls and now hes averaging a double double

    MIP would got to Omer not Harden. Even Chandler has a shot. But Omer more so.

    Morey will definitely win executive of the year. No one else comes close.

    MIP is Asik but I don't want him to get the award due to the MIP jinx

    The rest are nice but won't happen

    Morey loses to Kupchack for putting together the latest superteam in LA. :rolleyes:

    Seriously, I think Morey and McHale are both possible winners. And I can believe Asik as MIP. Lebron will be MVP. And lol at D-Mo.

    I think Morey should win executive of the year, but I have a feeling that it will go to Kevin Pritchard.
