My Team Awards:
Team MVP:
Steph Curry
Curry deserves the MVP award for the team. He was also was in the conversation for MVP earlier in the season.
Team Defensive Player of the Year:
Draymond Green
There’s only one option for this award as Draymond has never been a bonafide scorer but an intense defender. He’s the glue that holds this team. You can say that the team was lost without him whenever he was injured.
Team Rookie of the Year:
Jonathan Kuminga
Kuminga has had professional experience like Green from the Rockets. They both were drafted high because of the G-League. He didn’t get a lot of playing time but I don’t see him hitting the starting lineup for the next year or two barring a injured starter.
Team Sixth Man of the Year:
Jordan Poole
Jordan Poole had fantastic sophomore season with Klay out for the first half of the season. He had his minutes increase and he responded with
Team Most Improved Player of the Year:
Jordan Poole
Many people think Poole should’ve won this award for the NBA. I think he had a good shot at the award but I’m assuming he was second in the race. Ja Morant had a great year and was built off an underwhelming season. Unless Curry or Thomspson get hurt, I don’t see him getting another opportunity for this award.
Warriors had the best championship run ever?
Golden State did what a lot of teams won’t do. They managed their injuries very carefully. The main three players on the team were held out for multiple games but they made sure they were close to 100%. Klay Thompson didn’t start until half way through the season. Draymond was out for a period of time. Lasly, Curry was injured against the Celtics for the rest of the season. They went as far to bench Curry for the beginning of the playoffs. This was another chance for Curry to be in the games but allowing him to get more rest. All in all, the warriors had a lot of injuries to their starting five but that didn’t affect the next man up mentality. This team had everything from shooting, defending and role players that made a mark.
