Do I Agree With the NBA Award Picks?

Some of the awards for the 2009-2010 NBA season were given to the right people. Some of them weren't.

MVP (Actual Winner): LeBron James
MVP (My Pick): LeBron James. He's the best player in the NBA right now. Kobe has lost his throne. Just look at the numbers that LeBron is putting up and how good his team is doing. This pick wasn't hard to make.

Sixth Man of the Year (Actual Winner): Jamal Crawford
Sixth Man of the Year (My Pick): Jamal Crawford. It's as simple as this. He put up great numbers and helped his team while coming off the bench. Plus, Manu Ginobili and Jason Terry have already won the award in the past.

Rookie of the Year (Actual Winner): Tyreke Evans
Rookie of the Year (My Pick): Brandon Jennings. Tyreke may have put up better season averages than Jennings, but did Tyreke ever score 55 points in a game? I think not. Plus, Brandon Jennings helped his team make the playoffs and force the series to Game 7 against the Hawks. Tyreke put up good stats, but didn't seem to help his team much. The Kings didn't even come close to making the playoffs with 25 wins and 57 losses during the regular season.

Defensive Player of the Year (Actual Winner): Dwight Howard
Defensive Player of the Year (My Pick): Gerald Wallace. Wallace was right up there with Howard in rebounds per game and blocks per game. Wallace even beat Howard in steals per game. Plus, Howard won it last year and I'm not a huge fan of players winning the same award over and over again.

What do you think?
