No. I think T.J. Ford or Darko have a better shot than he does. But you never know, if he does dramatically improve, he could win it.
Ya your right those other guys have a shot more because they are on worse teams. This has always bugged me how laker players never win those smaller awards besides like MVP and DPOY. Why is that? Is it because they're in such a large market it seems unfair to give one of their players such a small award?
no. the lakers and lakers are the two biggest markets in the NBA becaus ethey are most marketable. Making it hard to give small awards to them becaus eit would just look as if they were favoring the biggest money making teams
I think the others have a better chance than Kwame does. If Kwame wants to win the MIP award, I think he'll have to get like 10 rpg or something. Yeah, I expect that much out of him to be able to win the MIP.
Of course it's possible, but I don't think it'll happen. he'd have to put up something like 18 and 10 to get it, and I think that's expecting too much from Kwame.
I doubt he'd get it even if he put up big numbers. Like everone else has said there are player more liokely to get it.... What about Chris Wilcox anyone? He's on a sh#t team, he will have learnt the system and he showed signs of good numbers at the end of the season.
Kwame would get it if he had a big season. If he put up big numbers, everyone would know about it, he's been under the miscroscope since he was drafted.
If Kwame does have a break-through season, he'll win the MIP because people will finally say, "Okay, now he's allowed to pass as a decent first pick." You know what I'm saying (typing)? It's not really that difficult to understand. However, I do believe that he won't win because he won't put up huge numbers or even decent ones for a first pick.
He will never be considered a decent first overall pick. First overall picks are supposed to be all-stars not just starters or 6th men.
