    From what Bill said last night, Landry can't be considered for ROY because he doesn't have enough minutes yet. Anybody know if Landry continues to log about 20mpg for the rest of the season if that will at least qualify him to be stastically eligable?

    I don't think there is any chance of him beating out Durant but it would be cool if Landry could be runner up ...assuming he's played enough minutes.

    I think he has to get 500 minutes for the season to be statistically eligible.

    If Landry can't qualify,it will be interesting to see how Scola does. It's great to have both of them.

    Hey I'm excited and think landry is a great player but put him on a team thats not of rockets caliber....sorry I take that back this is for ROY not all-star status....

    Agreed give landry or scola ROY for the impact they're making on their team

    This has me scratching my head. One of the worst in NBA history? Seriously?

    -->
    Kevin Durant and Jeff Green
    Al Horford
    Yi Jianlian
    Jamrio Moon
    Luis Scola and Carl Landry
    Joakim Noah
    Mike Conley
    Corey Brewer

    All of these guys look like they've got what it takes to be starters in this league. Yi, Horford, and Durant seem like good bets to be All-Stars.

    It'd be a hard sell to say this draft was worse than 2006, let alone "the history of the NBA."

    But Durant is going to win ROY because he can jack up shots any time he want.

    If you read the entire article, you'll see that the author immediately discounts that idea. He only brought it up for hypothetical purposes.
