I like the list, but would of rather seen AK-47 or Shawn Marion as the Defensive player of the Year.

 

Ben Wallace again? I was hoping for Marion, but Bryan Colangelo not winning Exec. of the Year is a joke. A JOKE.

Elgin Baylor brings in Sam Cassell and he wins executive of the year? Give me a break. That team had to break out after all these years and suddenly he's getting all this credit? Ben Wallace? Shawn Marion got robbed.

Mo Williams didn't even play half the year.

 

Bruce Bowen got robbed. He is the best defender in the nba. No doubt about it. I don't like him but he is an awesome defender.

They should have seen a new face in this and taken Shawn Marion.6th Man and MIP were both good choices, I agee with the COY too.

 

I remember a couple people saying there was no way Kobe doesnt get it..

Decent SG...so what?

 

So what? Those were the two pieces the team needed to make a run. He made their starting lineup very balanced and co-ordinated. He definately deserves it. He improved their team a lot. Who do you think should have won it BCB?

The guy is a disgrace.

 

Bryan Colangelo did go to Toronto, and Jerry Colangelo doesen't have much power with the Suns anyway. There's no way Colangelo should not have won it even if he went to Toronto. 2 awards is still cool with me.

 

Colangelo didnt win it because the Suns were better last year than they were this year.

 

He did a great job this year. He signed a lot of good players and it isn't his fault Amare was injured. This team was much more imporved. He brought us more depth, defense and him and D'Antoni thought Diaw would be good with us in the offense so they added him to the JJ trade. He deserves it more than the Clippers GM.

 

If you look at both last year's Suns and this year's Suns on paper, the normal person would go with last year's team, even with a healthy Amare.Come on man, just give this one to Baylor. He deserved it. I agee though, Colangelo did a great job at salvaging an other wise trainwreck loss. Alot of players left that team.

 

Then the normal person would be an idiot. Q was worse or just as good as everyone we picked up so the only loss would have been JJ but we got all those other good players and an improved D. Who did Baylor sign besides Cassell?
