Re: He-do wins MIPOTY award.
We just call it the "MIP" award..
But well-deserved and good work to him for working on his game (assuming that had a lot to do with his success this season).

Very deserving candidate had a very good regular season, and having a good post season.

Re: Hedo Turkoglu wins MIP award
As if there was any doubt. He definitely deserves it, and hopefully the crowd tomorrow night in Orlando gives him a great standing ovation.

"I" stands for "improved", not "injured".

Why would you give to a guy who played 35 games? He didn't prove anything. He just showed that he could potentially be good. Until he does it for a season it is all just a bunch of ifs. Hedo didn't miss a game.

doesnt matter how much you play, its what you did when you play. bynum came into this season as a bust, but ended the season as a guy whose going to be a top 5 center in the nba in the coming years. his production doubled and he instantly became one of the best low post players in the nba meanwhile his Defense has become really damn good as well(he shut out td)
