On nba.com where the official end of the year awards will be posted there is a section called, making the case. Well I was going through reading them. I clicked on the rookie section hoping to read a nice write up on Chirs Paul...there is an article about how Andrew Bogut is the ROY. WTF? Anyways check it out, they actually made some good points. Good points aside Chris Paul is the ROY, amazing season. Take a look.http://www.nba.com/awards2006/thecase_rookie_bogut.html
I don't know how you could not give the ROY award to Chris Paul after what he's done in NO/OKC this year... it is truly incredible.
Are you kidding me? Bogut has been good this year but give me a break, the Bucks have a better team and went to the playoffs but to use that against Paul is ridiculous. This articles makes it seem like Chris Paul didn't exist this year.
Maybe whoever wrote that piece also feels Darko deserved the ROY award over LeBron because Darko won a championship his rookie year...
They didn't say Andrew Bogut was the ROY, lol. They're just listing the candidates and making a case for each one to get it. Anyone with half a brain knows that CP3 is going to win.

There is no case, but your right. Hey but that Aussie fan did call him the ROY. CP3 was an MVP candidate in my book.

Look at the turn around the team made while only adding Paul. He was amazing. The Lakers only won 6 more games then the Hornets and Paul is just as important to the Hornets as Kobe is the Lakers. So how could Paul's name atleast not be mentioned. I believe he will get atleast one third place vote. Not sure why I am bothering explaining myself, if you would have read my post correctly I wouldn't need to go through this. I said Paul was an MVP candidate IN MY BOOK.
