T-Ross. 6th man of the year? 

Post#1 » by Hogified05 » Tue Feb 26, 2019 8:42 am

I am going guess he won't get it. Has a few people ahead of him in points per game. Plus we get absouletly no national attention or national games for people to notice. But my man needs to be in the convo at least. Averaging 15 per game and anyone with eyes can tell how important and well he has played for us this year. Without him we aren't sniffing the playoffs. I'd guess he has been our 2nd best player this year behind Vuc.

Anyways I haven't missed many Magic broadcasts and I follow all the Magic social media accounts. Shouldn't we be beating the drum to at least get Ross in the conversation? Don't think I've seen anything to help a brother out. I've never watched the award show, only been 2 years right? Don't they have nominations? We should be helping him get nominated.

Last year I hated watching him jack up bricks then he got hurt. He has been a joy to watch this year. One of my favorite seasons from a Magic player. He worked damn hard and it's shown. Gotten to the point I'd be cool with trading Evan, resigning Ross and giving him the starting spot. Anyways I just think it's a shame I haven't heard or seen anything from the Magic pushing him for it. Pushed Vuc for an all star and it helped.
The hero Orlando deserves is out there somewhere, Dwight was not the one we needed. So we will hunt for him...

Clippers have two front runners for that award.
Lou Williams 20 ppg 5 apg
Montrezl Harrell

Sabonis is averaging almost double double on 23 PER
Spance Dinwiddie is averaging 17 ppg off bench on top of 5 assists
Derrick Rose will be in contention for award as well.
Bogdan Bogdanovic will get some attention for sure ( his stats are similar to Ross ).

oh i forgot, Dennis Schroder will be one of top choices as well,especially because how good OKC is.

Without making a stats deep dive, my eye test tells me that Dinwiddie has been the best of that bunch.

I think Ross has a case if we make the playoffs, otherwise NO.

He should finish in the top 5 of the voting.

I would say Lou or Harrell are the favorites. I'd definitely put Ross in that next tier with Dinwiddie and Schroder.

Lou Williams has it in the bag... 20/5 on the season and bumped up to 25/6 in February. Ross has been really good for us, but there are lots of big contributors off the bench this season.

Doubt he'll get it, and I don't care. He's been great for the Magic and that's what matters.

Probably not but a valiant effort and we wouldn't be fighting for a playoff spot without him.

He probably won't get it but he deserves some recognition. The guy has been the magic's second best player, I don't know where the magic would be without him.

Lol not saying he should get it. Just saying be nice to see us push for it. Deserves to be in the race.

Figures I post this, then before the game it gets brought up on the Magic telecast then he has his worse game of the year. Hahaha I can't make this up.
