Don't need to create trouble here. You should know better.

Shaq got one first place vote last time, that's how ridiculous the voting is. Who knows? Krstic might get a few votes.

I think MJG is right, he had a nice rookie season.
I think the MIP leader is David West.

At least West is on the same team and isn't a product of the Phoenix track meet.
Why don't they just re-name this thing the "Most Increased Playing Time" award?

I love Nenad, I've followed him closesly since his last year in Europe, and I think he should always be in the game. In fact, when he's out with fould trouble I stop watching.
But to me, Frank always seemed like he was in love with Collins and Robinson, more so the former, using him when Nenad was just as viable. Take the Bobcats game tonight. Brezec is off the floor, who comes in during the 4th, Nenad or Collins? You guessed it, Set-shot Willy.
I had always chalked this seemingly peculiar predieiction to fact that I was biased about Nenad, that he wasn't as good as I thought due to my bias. But you guys seem to affirm my thoughts about Nenad. He IS a smart player, a good team defender, and a guy to be counted on. SO WHY DOES FRANK STILL NOT SHOW CONFIDENCE IN HIM?
(and it's not just keeping him out of game, it's not giving him touches in the clutch, taking him out when he makes a small mistake, etc)

Re: Most Improved Player Award
I think David West deserves it.
