Anyone have any canadates for the Most Improved this year?? Who do you think will be next years Boris Diaw or David West?I have a few that i think could be in the mix. Devin Harris, Darko, and Marquis Daniels.
Andrew Bogut. He'll play more of a focal role next year and will really come forward leaps and bounds. Did you all know he is top 5 in the L in charges taken? Thats a testament to his quick feet and commitment to defense.
my vote is for darko i think he is going to have a big year next year and be the number 2 pick the pistons expected when they drafted him that high
It will be Darko, although I sure hope it's Iguodala, but with Webber still around that isn't going to happen.Other good picks are Livingston, Marvin Williams, and David West. I don't know about Marquis Daniels though, I just never liked his game and just don't think he'll have that much of an impact with Indiana.
i think shaun livingston will be good next year but i don't know if he'll get enough minutes since hes backing up sam

He'll get plenty of time. Plus, Corey Maggette might get traded.EDIT: oh, i just thought of another candidate.. Josh Smith.
I forgot about Ryan Gomes... but it will only happen if he gets the PT. The guy was great for the C's last season when he started towards the end of the season I believe it was. If he gets enough PT, watch out for him.
:beerchug:Gomes is a player. I don't see him making a big jump, but a steady rise in his game year by year. He's going to be a stud for a long time tho.

See i love Livingston, but he'd have to be starting to get it imo. And with Sam in front of him, it takes away from his chances of putting up great numbers. I think Daniels will improve a ton if he stays healthy. He will finally be a starter for a whole season playing for Indiana. He'll most likely be the 3rd option on offense behind O'Neal and Stephen Jackson as well.
i said Yao because of his emergence as a dominating player while tmac was out at the end of last year..and because most of the season he was injured and wasnt able to produce much..and he hasnt really broken out of his shell yet to his full potentialif not then Darko

Darko is going to have a big year. Something along the lines of 13/7/2 blocks is about rightHe'll complement Howard well
