YugoRocketsFan Posted November 12, 2009 Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 Kinda early to make this but someone from the Rocket is winning it, its either Ariza, Brooks or Landry.\ BTW, i just made this so you can agree with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trutrojan8 Posted November 12, 2009 Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 Goran Dragic is a beast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Posted November 12, 2009 Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 Q Rich for me. Seems like a completely different player. People knew about Ariza already as he was a major contributor on a championship team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poe Posted November 12, 2009 Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 Well, right now it's Ariza, easily. Gallo had a good start, too, though not nearly as good as Ariza's, and his team ain't winning, either. Chris Kaman is also looking to have a good year, but I think his numbers will go down when Griffin gets back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andreusito Posted November 12, 2009 Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 Will Bynum, Dragic, Oden.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riot Posted November 12, 2009 Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 Danilo Gallinari and Chris Douglas Roberts maybe, if they keep up their level of play. From the Magic.. Ryan Anderson and JJ Redick. :glasses: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smitty Posted November 12, 2009 Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 Lou Williams, easily. The strides he has made compared to last season is really awesome to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warren2ThaG Posted November 12, 2009 Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 Greg Oden / Joakim Noah / Russell Westbrook / Channing Frye / Marreese Speights Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smitty Posted November 12, 2009 Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 Yeah, Speights has made great improvements as well...can't believe I forgot about him. Call me biased, but both guys really have made big progress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good eye, a player that went from 10.2 ppg to 9 ppg is most improved. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

papertrail Posted November 12, 2009 Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 I like how Redick is playing so far this year, if he improves his shooting a bit he could easily be right up there for most improved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Bomba Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 How could I forget about MARC GASOLI know. Gasol has transformed himself into one of the best centers in the league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingfish Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 Gasol should win this award unanimously. If he keeps up his current play that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riot Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 Gasol's a guy who had a good rookie season so I knew he was going to get even better this year. He's playing great but it's not really a surprise, to me at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Bomba Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 He was 11 and 7 his rookie season and now he's about 19 and 10. I don't think he'll keep it up all season long, but as of now he seems like the most improved IMO. Not only his stats, but also the way he plays. Last season he depended too much on his 10 foot jumper. This year he has been a monster in the paint, has showed great footwork, runs the floor much better, and gets to the line a lot.

Poe Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 Good eye, a player that went from 10.2 ppg to 9 ppg is most improved.Q-Rich actually has made surprisingly good improvements this year with losing weight, much better intensity (probably coming from playing with his best friend), better overall defensive play, and perhaps even a better shooter than before. I wouldn't say he's the most improved player in the whole league, but definitely the most improved on the Heat team so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diesel Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 (edited) Trevor Ariza as of now. You could make a case for a bunch of guys on that Houston team stepping it up big time. We saw these guy's step up in the LA series when Yao went down and now we're going to see it for an entire season. And Chuck Hayes is a beast on defense. One of the best defensive players in the league. Brooks is keeping up his play from the LA series too up this year which is another good sign. You could also make a case for Bynum at this point, but he will get hurt again like he does every year and his production will go back to typical Andrew Bynum mode when Gasol comes back.

Celtics3420 Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 There are alot of guys that have improved ALOT. Off the top, Ariza, Will Bynum, Carl Landry, Marc Gasol, Channing Frye, Andrew Bynum. Front Runners on my list would be A.Bynum, Ariza, Gasol granted all 3 keep up their levels of play. Bynum is prving he deserves his money thus far ad is establishing himself as atop notchbig. Ariza is doing much better than i expected as a lead man, but he def. needs to raise his FG %. Gasol hasn't raised his PPG as much as the other 2, but it's clear he is a presence on both ends for that team and if Zbo wasn't there dominating the ball half the time in the post, Gasol would have more touches, thus more points. I'd give it to Bynum based of of his efficiency(55% from the field, 76% FT's)and production(20/10 1 stl and blk) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legacy Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 Marc Gasol. Dude is a monster. He's been amazing so far this season. He worked his [expletive] off during the off-season, and you could see the results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
