Legacy Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 First Anthony Randolph had his record-tying performance topped by teammate and friend Anthony Morrow. Now, he gets jobbed out of summer league MVP honors. Big deal? Not really. But it’s a dis nonetheless. I just learned that Blake Griffin was named MVP of the Las Vegas summer League. I don’t know who chooses, but certainly they spent too much time at Margeritaville. Anthony Randolph shoulda been MVP.Certainly, Griffin had more hype. He cemented himself as one of the most dominant rookies in summer league history and many expect him to have a stellar rookie season. And, no doubt, many of the voters, whoever they are, may not have seen much of Randolph since the Warriors played the first half of the schedule and most people came for the second half, when Griffin arrived. Randolph did miss his last game.Still, a look at the stats would’ve been enough to crown Randolph the winner: Randolph: 26.8 points, 60.9 FG%, 8.5 rebounds and 3.0 blocks.Griffin: 19.2 points, 50.0 FG%, 10.8 rebounds and 0.4 blocks.Read More...
