Kerry Kittles should win. Sometimes he plays so soft it seems like he trying to let the other team win, Now thats sportsmanship.
All of these players are definitely eligible... I think it's just a matter of giving it to the veterans, not the young players, because they always have a chance of winning it later in their careers; plus we also have to recognize the veterans for having good sportsmanship throughout their careers.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Streetball2k3:</div><div class="quote_post">Kerry Kittles IMO. He plays very soft and always helps people up when their on the ground.</div> Thank you. I can't even remember an instance wherein he complained to a ref. or make a cheap shot at players.
How can you not like Shane Battier? He spends his whole life giving back to the community. While most of the other Grizzlies shy away from the public eye, Battier is always visiting hospitals, schools, and poor communities. He can always be found in charity fundraisers, read to achieve events, and just about anywhere else he can show up at. He's only in his early twenties too. He's Mr.Class.
Elton Brand baby!! Brand is always composed on the court and he is mature beyond his age. He's also not a guy to get in a scuffle with the refs, go Brand.
