February 6, 200719 yr Davis is #2 in scoring and #1 in rebounding. Yes his team is terrible but that doens't change the fact he is probalby the best player in the conference. You said Noah is your choice. Noah isn't even in the top 20 in scoring and is #6 in rebounding. Davis is ahead of Noah in almost every stat. I don't think you dismiss Davis just because he plays on a bad team. Is Durant not the best player in college basketball just because Texas isn't that good? You bring up some good points. I didn't look at any stats, I just think that at this point Florida has separated itself from the rest of the pack and Noah is the best player on that team. I wouldn't feel right giving it to a guy who is currently on the worst team in the conference.
February 6, 200719 yr To add to Original Rookies point. Davis' team is losing; Noah's is winning and also ranked #1 in the nation.
February 6, 200719 yr I don't disagree that Davis' chances of getting are slim due to LSU be being a disappointment thus far but I think sometimes people are too quick to give awards like this to someone on the best team. I would agree that Noah is the best player on Florida but not by much. Florida really doesn't have a weak link on the floor which in turn makes it easier for Noah to get his. Davis is LSU, teams know this and have still not been able to stop him. Either way I don't think you can go wrong.
February 6, 200719 yr Way too early to tell. Based on what has happened thus far I would probably go with Noah.
February 6, 200719 yr I say if they just go by SEC games only...Crawford...But i have a feeling Noah will get it, and I think it is deserved...
February 6, 200719 yr 1st Team Green Lofton Byars Horford Noah/Davis Trying to narrow down the front court is difficult (with Davis). Between the two, I believe Horford is more deserving than Noah/Davis up until this point.
February 6, 200719 yr Vols are 1-3 since Lofton has been out. He comes back I think he will prove how valuable he is to Tennessee and carry his way to the MVP. Byars is also a sleeper with Vandy. Joe Crawford?? Unfortunately he won't make first team all conference. First team SEC. Lofton, Byars, Noah, Big Baby Davis, and Davidson from Alabama. :thumb: The guard from Ga(can't remember name) is very good too...The only problem I see with Noah is that he shares the load with Horford, who, by all counts is just as good as Noah, statistically, at least and neither have the stats to garner POY honors, imo...
February 6, 200719 yr 1st Team Green Lofton Byars Horford Noah/Davis Trying to narrow down the front court is difficult (with Davis). Between the two, I believe Horford is more deserving than Noah/Davis up until this point. I respectfully think that's a bad 1st team. Mine would look something like this: Horford Davidson Davis Lofton Brewer
February 6, 200719 yr Derrick Byars has been as good as anyone, and Joe Crawford has to get some consideration. Obviously Noah would also get some votes. Right now I think I would go with Derrick Byars.
February 7, 200719 yr This would be my 1st team all sec team: C- Morris - UK F- Perry -UK F - Crawford - UK G - Bradley - UK G - Jasper - UK Others receiving consideration : Thomas - UK, Porter - UK, Meeks - UK, Obzuit - UK, Harris - UK
February 7, 200719 yr This would be my 1st team all sec team: C- Morris - UK F- Perry -UK F - Crawford - UK G - Bradley - UK G - Jasper - UK They wouldn't even be 1st team All Gainesville...
