2020 NBA awards

At the end of each NBA season awards are given out to the best rookie, coach, 6th

man, most improved, and overall player of the regular season. Today I'm going to tell you who should be recieving these awards and why.

First off I'm going to start with the 6th man of the year award. This will go to Dennis Schroder coming off the bench for the thunder. This season he is a

veraging 19, 4, and 4 on around 31 minutes a game and really helped the thunder stay in playoff contention after loser Russel Westbrook and PG13 last summer. If the thunder weren't as good as they are I might give this to Lou Williams but its too hard to deny his imp

act on the court for the thunder.

Next we have rookie of the year which will obvisouly go to Ja Morant from the grizzlies. Although Zion has played better in his games he missed most of the season and Ja kept of a great pace throughout the season. He averaged he averaged 17.5, 3.5, and 7 after being picked 2nd overall by the grizzlies last year. As he gets older his basketball iq will keep getting better and I see him averaging over 10 assists for at least a couple seasons. He has great potential and I can't wait to see how his career turns out.

My most improved player pic is going to have to go to Bam Adebayo. This could have gone to a few different players but he showed great improvement and his potential just keeps him growing into a better player. Last year he averaged 9, 7, and 2 with a block and a steal. Those definetly aren't numbers to scoff at but he showed great improvment this season averaging 16, 10, and 5 with over a block and steal a game. The thing that intrigues me most is his passing ability for a center. Knowing that he can easily score on you and make great passes to his teammates is scary for oppossing players. I expect his game to improve by a lot next year too and he may still be in the running for this award again.

Coach of the year for me has to be Nick Nurse. Last year he lead the raptors to their first ever finals and finals victory. After Kawhi left many thought that the raptors would be at the bottom of the playoffs or be out entirely.

Nick Nurse showed what the raptors could do though and they are back near the top of the leauge once again with Pascal taking over the best player role in Toronto. I'm excited to see what happens come playoff time for this 46-18 second seed.

Now the moment you've all been waiting for, the MVP. To me it is clearly Giannis (I'm not going to try and spell his last name). He showed once again what he could do this year leading his team to the top seed in the east. He averaged a staggering 30, 14, and 6 with the highest per in the leauge. Watching Giannis play is like watching a grown man play against children and his future in this leauge is looking bright after what is expected to be his 2nd MVP in just as many years.
