NBA Awards, Justin Patton, and Ricky Rubio
Good morning friends. This and that.
NBA Awards
The NBA awards were presented last night in the first ever “awards show.” When I hear the phrase “awards show” I run as fast as I can the other way, so I didn’t watch. But, the results:
Russell Westbrook took home the MVP. This is not a surprise, as the triple-double machine was the biggest individual story in the league this season, responding to the departure of Kevin Durant by dominating in ways we rarely see. I think I would have voted for Kawhi Leonard, who finished third, but no shade, Westbrook was incredible. James Harden was a deserved second.
