Who are your picks for the major awards so far this season?
There is no budget so pick your true favorite at each position. These are my top 3 choices and favorites at each award. If you want to comment your top 3 at each award that’s fine.
MVP- It’s a 2 man race this year. It very well may be Shai due to Jokic MVP fatigue, but Jokic is putting up yet another historic run this year. How each team finishes will be a factor and it truly could go either way.
DPOTY- It’s a one man race, Wemby is the guy and could win it every year for the next 5 years truly.
MIP- Norman Powell will be on most people’s top choices, but IMO his skill has always been there. He’s just got more of an opportunity now that he’s starting, PG is gone, and the roster hasn’t been all that healthy (Kawhi). The true MIP should be Murphy imo but Hunter and Herro have turned it up this season too and are also 2 true candidates.
ROY- I think Castle is running away with this as of right now. I think that could still change but right now it’s his to loose. Wells has had a great year but with GG going to be healthy I think his minutes get smaller.
6th man- There’s a lot of great bench players this season. I think as of right now Pritchard leads the pack but there’s a lot of players who could come swinging for this award.
