    Let's face it, some of these guys in most years are just down right scrubs.

    I thought this would be another Jeremy Lin thread in which he was every option. Glad I was rong.

    None of these players "revived" their careers. Sustained it, but not revived. Revival, we're talking about Greg Oden, Tracy McGrady, Brandon Roy, Rasheed Wallace status, You've got have a career before you revive it.

    Mario Chalmers is the only one that really pops out to me. I thought he was pretty much a dud last year, but he's stepped it up. Good defender too.

    I thought Novak was out of the league before Lin emerged.

    Voted him.

    lol, jose calderon's assists went down in 2009-10 because he was sharing ball-handling duties with Hedo and Jarrett Jack, and he was practically the same player last year as he is this year.

    context is important.

    Yeah I picked Novak because none of the others really fit the criteria. Then I realized neither does Novak (never had a career).

    Ridnour was good when he was with the Bucks and has kept it up.
