Has that ever happened before? That's pretty awesome. These guys really win as a team. You never know who the best player is going to be on any given night.

EDIT: Just read that it hasn't happened before.

It's gay. Player of the month... is not starting 5 of the month. It's weak. It's a cop out.

 

[bksballer89]

You're gay

This award is corny as hell. It's like one of those "Everyone's a winner" awards they give kids.

Its cool as long as a team has earned it.


Ive kinda seen this type of team before, by the way. Carroll's senior year at Mizzou got him to the elite 8 with 2 cast off recruits from the Quinn Snyder era: a big man with a mid ranged jumpshot and a white guy forward who couldn't miss from outside. Led the league in assist to turnover ratio, iirc. They might have gone further if they played any defense.

Atlanta is totally legit.
