On this episode of The Kevin O’Connor Show, KOC and Tom Haberstroh dive into the news and then reveal what their ballots would look like if the NBA season ended today.
The boys used the Magic’s thrilling win over the Lakers last night to highlight Franz Wagner, who has found his jump shot and is once again looking like a top 20 player in the NBA. Anthony Davis, the MVP favorite, is starting to look a little tired.
KOC talks about his visit to the Intuit Dome, home of the Los Angeles Clippers, where he witnessed many bathrooms and The Wall, which may or may not be full of paid actors.
The Hornets swept the Pistons in overtime and seem primed for the future with young stars like LaMelo Ball and Brandon Miller. Tom and Kevin also discuss the Timberwolves, who have dropped to 8-7 and appear to be out as they face a tough stretch of the schedule.
Before diving into the monthly NBA awards voting, the guys discuss the idea of the NBA changing playoff seeding to a 1-16 system that doesn’t rely on conferences. Is it in the best interest of the league? Is this even possible?
Finally, find out who they would pick for MVP, Rookie of the Month, Defensive Player of the Month, MVP, Coach of the Month, Sixth Man of the Month and even the All-NBA or All-Rookie teams if the season ended today.
