Starter
Tyreke Evans is going to be on NBA Coast-To-Coast in a few minutes to talk about his season and the Kings. It's on ESPN2.

Also, go to http://espn.go.com/nba/ and vote for the rookie of the year this year. Both Reke and Casspi are choices.

International rankings is 42% Tyreke vs 39% jennings, but majority of east coast has jennings...

Minny has Flynn as their ROY :p
 
Reke said his ankle is feeling better.

He said he likes NBA over college because there's more spacing on the floor.

He said the part of his game that's most improved is attacking the basketball. He said the coach likes it when he attacks.

ESPN interviewer said that Reke's game is being compared to Billups? Wtf? Reke said his favorite player is Penny Hardaway and McGrady, but I don't think he compared himself to them.

The only reason Jennings is leading the voting is because of ONE 50-point game. Impressive, yes. ROY? No.

The fans that say Jennings is the ROY because of his scoring alone are the same fans that vote McGrady and Iverson into the All-star game. :rolleyes:

Thank goodness none of these people's opinions actually matter.

Seriously man, they showed some tweets of people saying who they think is ROY while they were talking. One guy wrote something along the lines of Jennings because of a 55 point game, that's Kobe numbers. :rolleyes: Give me a break.
 
I found the rookie rankings link at the very bottom right hand corner, but I'm not seeing where to vote for ROY?

I could be wrong, but isn't this selected by sports writers and such? I don't recall ever seeing a ballot for Rookie of the Year for the public to cast.
 
There was a poll on ESPN yesterday for ROY, but it appears to be gone now -- probably just their daily poll. Might be able to find it in the archives somewhere. Basically it was runnign about Jennings 40%, Reke 35% rest = 25%. Of coruse the people voting in it are the same geniuses who currently have TMac and Iverson in the Al Star game -- the "fans" (are you actually a fan of something you are completely ignorant of?), so I'm not terribly worried.

Gotcha. Thought there was a vote like an allster vote or something.
 
And most of the sportswriters are saying Tyreke is the frontrunner for ROY so far, so there's no reason to think he'll be overlooked. East coast fans haven't really got a chance to see Tyreke play unless they watched the Washington game or the Warriors game early in the season both of which would have been on late. Anyone who's seen him play the past three weeks or so is seriously impressed. No reason to get worried. East coast bias always rules in the polls. Especially at ESPN. All of our games are on too late to make the highlights. The funny thing is that Brandon Jennings is from the West coast originally and Evans is from the East coast.
 
Jennings is just baaarely hanging onto 40% shooting on the strength of his early season hot streak. If he ends up sub-40% and sub-20 pts on the season, it shouldn't even be close.
 
jennings is slowing down imo... people are wising up to him and guarding his j.

tyreke on the other hand guarded or no he's going to get his :D
