Tyrese Maxey wins the 2024 Joe Dumars Sportsmanship Award.
Named after Joe Dumars. Another very random award? But Maxey does deserve it.

Joe Dumars? Never associated him with good sportsmanship. Was it when he was firing coaches every other week to protect his own terrible decisions running the Pistons?

Maybe he can explain to Embiid what sportsmanship is.

When you compare him to the goons he played next to during his playing days, he was a saint.

Next to Laimbeer and Rodman, Ron Artest will look like a saint.

Wasn't he the only guy that actually congratulated Michael Jordan when they swept them in 1991 while the others all left the floor?

Sportsmanship is so easy in the Eastern Conf though. Could he be a good sport if he had to play the several all time great teams in the west 3 or 4 times?

Feel bad for the winners to have to say something good about winning a random award.

Or Sponsorship Award, according to RealGM. Is that for the best pitchman?

Seems like a pretty cool award to win. Not sure why people are mocking it? Internet tough guy points?
Lady Bing has been a big deal in hockey for a long time.
You can be a fierce competitor and a good sport.

Only player on the Sixers that deserves any respect.

To me he is the third best player in the NBA - Luka and Embiid are comfortably ahead of him.

I don't think anybody is trying to be an internet tough guy here. It's more along the lines of: where all all these awards coming from? I don't think anyone has any real beef with them. Just seems like this year there's an award for everything.

The Sportsmanship Award has existed since 1996.
Clutch Player of the Year (2023), Conference Finals MVPs (2022), Social Justice Champion (2021), the Hustle Award (2017), and Teammate of the Year (2013) are the relatively new ones.
I do think there's a level of redundancy have the Teammate of the Year, Sportsman of the Year, Social Justice Champion, and Citizenship Award (since 1975). Four good dude awards seems like a bit much.

As a player, he was a class act! Last I check, Maxey is not a coach but a player. Now repeat this 3 times and go back to sleep.KodiakBear wrote:Joe Dumars?

Well done Maxey!

Is it intentionally funny or unintentionally funny?
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?
Please adviseā¦.
