Leader for ROY right now. I think Webber has the nod over Rider, with Penny in 3rd. Just too many other players on the Mavs taking away shots from Penny

GMOY will NOT come from the Midwest division. Book it I have you as Coach of the Year so far, meaning you've done the best overall gameplanning.

Lakers keep on selling talent. Lakers keep on winning. Your team is still really good. Weatherspoon has replaced Johnson nicely.

I have you as Coach of the Year so far, meaning you've done the best overall gameplanning. Are we actually doing that award this year? Thought there was discussion on implementing it last season We were discussing it internally and i think it came down to this. Part of GMOY is coaching. Let's say for instance The Mavs make all of these moves in the offseason like they did and are the clear favorites for the award like they are. But unlike what they're really doing, they just stunk it up in the standings. Win 30 games and it never came together. To me they probably shouldn't get the vote. Which to me is why it's hard to call it GMOY and just look at the moves in a vacuum without the results. My personal opinion on it is, you have to make all the transactions to put you into the discussion, but the bread and butter comes down to what you do WITH the players. Which is why it's an end season award and not an after trade deadline award. I'd like to hear other's takes on it.

It could eliminate teams that didn't make "newsworthy" moves but just play damn good ball. i.e. Pacers.

But in my personal definition of GMOY he doesn't really stack up to the contestants this year. Maybe in a quieter year, and this is coming from someone who does't think it should be a "most improved" team award. There's a lot to be said for quiet moves but does it really make them GMOY? I think the success is the reward.

I think the moves get you into the conversation and doing something with the moves is what wins it for you.

I like to think of it as "Most Impressive GM/Coach". Teams suffering from injuries and able to adjust on the fly, winning big games, making moves, all that jazz

I pick six candidates and roll the dice three times. This was the process used by the league to pick Conroy last year.

I just think that GMOY ends up being "most improved team" when we know most of the time slow and steady wins the race. Is that the way I see it, no, but that's what happens. I think sometimes it takes away from truly great coaching jobs. Does it have to be separate awards, no it shouldn't have to be, but the "coaching" part is overlooked.

The NBA has a GMOY right? What are their criteria. Would Dell Demps be considered if the Pelicans had even an inkling of success at the end of the year?
