it should be hedo and the one thing that i believe should be taken into account that goes beyond those stats is that out of all those players hedo is the one guy who came out of nowhere to become the first OFFENSIVE scoring option even in a team where he was supposed to be the 3rd option at best. also ppl forget kaman has had some very nice campaigns in the past so his improvement is really not that drastic.

Rudy Gay:
PPG: +9.4
fg%: +4%
RPG: +1.6
His steals and assists are also up. I don't see how he isn't the obvious choice, let alone even mentioned, unless you're opposed to soph's getting MIP, in which case LA isn't in the running either.

I have to go with Kaman... he's averaging close to 16 pts 13 rebs and 3 blks per game for godsake.
You can say he did it because Brand was out, but wouldn't you want your big man to step up when an injury occurs?
All four are definitely deserving of consideration.... but Chris has been unreal this year.
