1st, 4th and 10th - not a bad showing!

Awesome acknowledgement for a hell of a season from the Dragon

Seeing as Kieff is 10th and Gibson is much further down the list, does this mean Markieff's chances at 6th man are improved?

Truly deserved. I hope he also makes All-NBA Third team at least.

I would have gave it to Gerald Green over Dragic, but I'm happy for Goran. Most improved is a crappy award for a player like Dragic.

Go away!

You think Dragic is happy for winning that award? He's an all-star, 3rd team all nba player (should be). Most improved award is such a terrible award. It's like saying hey you suck one year but the next year you showed us you actually don't suck.

Allstars shouldn't get that award. That's why I would be more happy if Gerald Green got it because he's not on Dragcs talent level.

Getting all-Nba 3rd team is a damn accomplishment not getting most improved.

I'll be curious just how many votes Goran gets for MVP. Obviously he won't win, but I'm guessing someone (Al McCoy) will give him a 1st. Also, I could see him getting a few 3rd or 4th place votes as well. I don't think the Suns would have won 25 games without Goran this year. Definitely the most valuable player on our team.

What troll voted for LeBron? Lol.

Jdiddy701 · Post #17 » by **Jdiddy701** » Wed Apr 23, 2014 4:39 pm

Exactly. I just wish Dragic got the actual recognition he deserved. Most improved is nothing for a player like Dragic.

Anthony Davis shouldn't be considered for it either. We all know he's good.

Guess he forgot to put his glasses on. That's an "I", not a "V"!!!

Wow, he should be revoked of his voting rights. I can only assume he thought this was the MVP award for real. Because that's probably the top 3 for that award.
