    IDK: Does any player have an incentive clause that pays them a bonus for being selected?

    I said, "not as impressed."

    Bingo. Davis is filling the the stats sheet with Wilt-like numbers, and also shooting as well as a guard from deep.

    The most interesting tangental bit of trivia around Anthony Davis Wilting it up in February? The re-appearance from the deserts of Tattooine of Emeka-wan Ken-Okafor.

    https://deadspin.com/its-2018-and-emeka-okafor-is-playing-in-the-nba-1823315419

    In a spectacular bit of "rising tide lifting all boats", Emeka Okafor is not only playing in the NBA, but scoring points, getting rebounds, and blocking shots.

    No disrespect to Durant and his 22 points and 8 rebounds on 6-10 from the field and 2-3 from three, but Davis with 53 points (16-29, 21-26 FTs), 18 rebounds, 3 assists, 5 blocks, and only one turnover ... signed, sealed, and delivered.

    Player/coach of the month awards are given out just so the NBA can say they don't favor star players from big market teams.

    No disrespect to either, but Dame plays the Kings tomorrow and could in theory drop 100 against them.

    Davis went off big time tonight. I think he’ll get it, especially when you look at the Prlicans’ roster.

    It would probably take that much to hang with Davis this month. You can take your theory and run with it. I'll stay in the real world.

    I was definitely joking, but I won’t put anything past Dame or the Kings.

    No disrespect 2U, but Davis lacks in the most important statistical category: Swish3s. If Meyers was playing, he'd win every POM award.

    Crap, I posted this on my wrong account!

    Agreed, and thats nothing to get upset about. Damian being 4th in that list is awesome.

    Meyers alongside Davis with Cousins out...that's literally adding insult to injury.

    Dame is playing great, but Davis really deserves the honors.

    Shit, go back and check. Winning COY has been a curse. I think Sam Mitchell got fired and Avery Johnson the next year.
