Player of the D.A.Y.

By Sam Rubenstein

Joe Johnson hit a buzzer beater to win an NBA game in which he was one of the better performers. That should usually be a given Player of the D.A.Y. no questions asked, but the opponent… Minnesota is now 2-15 with that loss. The MVP race could come down to the following criteria: which team is worse, the T-Wolves without KG or the Cavs without LeBron? The answer: give it to Dwight Howard and let’s never re-visit that debate.

Speaking of “The answer” (ugh… that was bad), Allen Iverson is the youngest 32 year old ever. He followed up a 51 point game with 35 and 12 with 6 steals against Dallas, leading all players in the game in minutes with 42. This was on the back end of a back-to-back. When is he supposed to break down again?

Have a great weekend everyone.
