You have 10 seconds to give me one compelling reason that Tim Hardaway Jr. shouldn’t win the Rookie of the Year award.
Time’s up. I thought so. No, “MCW has better stats” does not qualify as a compelling reason. I bet Hardaway could get some pretty sick stats too if he was given the keys to the offense of a tanking team.
But no matter who wins the award the fact of the matter is that this one of the worst rookie classes ever. The fact that Hardaway is even partially in the discussion highlights the ineptitude of his fellow neophytes. Maybe the NBA just shouldn’t give the award out all.
