Who is the 6th man this year? 

Post#1 » by magicfan4life05 » Thu Mar 20, 2008 12:34 am

This is some strange year with all the talk about streaks, records, the west, mvps, and trades it seems no one has talked about who the 6th man is...who are your nominations

"I just think everybody needs to stop talking about it," Howard said. "There's more to life than free throws."

Manu doesnt start, but he plays like starter minuets, so does he still qualify

Yeah, I just know you have to come off the bench for a certain amount of games. Looking at his stats he should qualify easy.

Most 6th men of the year candidates play heavy minutes. I think the only qualification is that he doesn't start in more games than he does start.

A better question might be, who's the second 6th man of the year. Lots of good candidates.

Jason Terry
Leandro Barbosa
Josh Childress

67 games, 24 starts. Even if he starts every game from now on, it will still be less than half the games he's played. So he's eligible by the letter of the law, if not by its spirit. That's for voters to decide.
