Default NBA crew: Kevin Durant "Rookie of the Year"

http://www.nba.com/news/durant_roy_080501.html

I think it's well deserved based on the limited games (about 6 or so) that I caught this year... Dude can score...

Now he needs to turn Seattle into a winning team...

Now awaiting MVP announcements...

I think he wins by default. There isn't any other good rookies. He shoots alot so he is going to get his 20+.

Frankly, there isn't any exciting players I would built a team around from last year's draft.

True... he needs to keep scoring I guess in order to keep Seattle afloat (in last place in the West)...

True there too... I had to really think about who was in the running for ROY for a bit...

I think Horford from Atlanta was another great candidate for ROY. Either player could have won IMO.

Big +1. Horford was great this year, and will continue to get better. Either player was deserving.
I think that Kobe won MVP, from leaked reports on the 'wire.

Not true, Scola did a great job down in Houston, Horford in ATL, Mike Conelly in Mem... among others. There are too many to list.

Scola is like a half-rookie.. since he was drafted by San Antonio, but didn't play until this year for the Rockets.. Nevertheless, Scola > Durant!!

Durant won becuase he was the best player on his team. Secondly, he averaged 20-30 shots per game.
