    I think they are being contrarian because they think it makes them look smart, and/or to get attention and/or because they think Davis will have the bigger impact IN THE FUTURE, and they think it will make them look smart. The thing is, it isn't the "who will be better in the future" award. It's the rookie of this year award. Douche bags.

    His raw stats are worse but his advanced stats are very much the same.

    I am a HUGE Lillard homer but if Davis had been a key component or led, and led is the key word here, the Hornets to the playoffs I would highly highly consider Davis as ROY. But he didnt. Not even close. So for as great as people say his numbers are they really didnt do a whole lot for the Hornets. Lillard has record breaking numbers and was a key component and competing for a playoff spot. And I am still waiting for the list of record breaking ROOKIE records and achievements for Davis. Lillard didnt just have a great rookie year he had one of the best rookie years in the last 20-30 years. SMH

    Correct, offensively he might even be slightly better, although his rebound rate is somewhat lower.

    People are too focused on the raw, per-game numbers.
