We’re a game and a half away from reaching exactly 25 percent of the regular season schedule.
Yes, it still feels like yesterday when the Larry OB sat on a table at courtside, while fireworks went off and the championship banner was unveiled. Since then, Toronto has continued to show why they’re the defending, reigning NBA champions, with statement victories over the Lakers, Sixers, and Jazz.
Feel free to carry the conversation into the comment section, but here is my quarter-season award winners for the team:
MIP: Siakam
ROQ (Rookie of the Quarter): Terence Davis
6MOQ: Davis
Most likely to get snubbed for an All-Star selection: Fred VanVleet
Most likely to get paid this off-season: VanVleet
Most likely to be traded by the deadline: Norman Powell
Defensive play of the quarter: Chris Boucher’s two-hand block on Montrezl Harrell’s dunk attempt
Any and all of these choices are debatable, so please send in your selections.
