Nah Donovan didn't earn ROY based on everything. Not quite. Ben was running at a full clip all season long (which is the strongest argument for him not winning by him not being accepted him as a rookie since he had a full year to ramp up) and Donovan went through a tremendous growth as a player from the first games of the season to that last game vs. Houston where he was the heart and soul of the Jazz. Donovan is the better player to me, but he didn't have the body of work all season that Ben did. What could have shaken up the race is if Utah would have been able to knock off Houston - or at least take them 7 games. Tatum's playoff performance bought him a LOT of capital in the ROY race. Donovan leading Utah vs the warriors (and make no mistake - Utah had GS' number this year) in the WCFs might have tipped it in his favor. But if DM has showed anything, it's the ability to improve by leaps and bounds. If this little race has kept him hungry, I'll gladly take the result-- and I'm sure he would too."I'm anti, can't no government handle a commando / Your man don't want it, Trump's a bitch! I'll make his whole brand go under,"

Originally posted by creekster View PostSorry, I was unclear. I mean DM ignore the merits of his own candidacy. There is a very compelling argument to be made that head to head DM should be ROTY. He is a better and def more versatile scorer. He carried a team on offense, replacing an all-star. He played great defense. He stepped into the PG role when needed, even though is not really a PG. And so forth. But rather than make the point that he was the best nominee for the award he simply played coy wiot the not a rookie crap. It worked against him, in the end, I think.Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

It would be nice if they had some kind of full year or playoff mvp award. Though like the finals mvp it likely would default to the best player on the winning team.

Jazz waive Jonas Jerebko over the weekend, and he's apparently going to the Warriors.
Does this make way for Georges Niang to join the Jazz? He's been playing very well in the G-League and now in the summer league games.Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.
