Dennis Schröder: Sixth Man Extraordinaire
OKC's point guard deserves the Sixth Man of the Year award this season.
The wounds from the James Harden Trade may never heal, but Dennis Schröder has certainly helped the effort. Ever since Harden’s incredible 2011-2012 season, when he won the Sixth Man of the Year Award (6MOY) in a landslide, Oklahoma City has been looking for another Sixth Man Extraordinaire. The original plan was to build a Big Three of Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook, and Harden, but an impasse over contract negotiations ended that abruptly, with James being sent to Houston, where he has blossomed into a superstar and MVP.
