MCW (reportedly) is the Rookie of the Year!

(Reportedly)

Guys. GUYS!

It's all going to be okay. Today it was announced that Michael Carter-Williams will (reportedly) win the Rookie of the Year.

OMG! Right!?

I've written on the Sixers a couple of times in the past few months. Back at the beginning of the season when they were 3-0 and everything was awesome! And more recently, when things were noticeably less awesome. And even when Bynum was on the team (at least we're not at that point anymore amiright?!)

But NOW, MCW is (reportedly) rookie of the year. And that means everything is great!

Sure it doesn't change anything about the season. And MCW would have his great season whether he was recognized for it or not. But still. This is the best thing ever!

Until the Sixers win the lottery on May 20th and have the first over all pick! That'll be the best thing ever!

No Matter What! Exciting Points of the Sixers Season

This has been a very confusing season for fans of the Philadelphia 76ers.

All logic pointed to the Sixers tanking this season. Their team did not appear very good. Their new executives seemed interested in starting over from scratch. The teams #TogetherWeBuild campaign shows their commitment to a new look team.

But they aren't tanking. They're not even losing. Like, at all. And they're playing good teams. And it is super exciting! And I don't have it in me to cheer against them. I'm excited and there are three things that I will be excited about if they win every game for the rest of the season or if they go 3-79. These things will keep my blood flowing no matter what.

The Rookie - So now you're thinking: "Well, duh! He's great!" But no one was so sure about Michael Carter-Williams just a week ago. My man is killing it! And he has the perfect Philly demeanor. He sinks his shot and runs back to defense with an ear to ear grin. Then you ask him about it and he's so chill! "Yeah, it's pretty cool. We're just having some fun out there." Like he's playing with some buddies down at the playground! I will agree, 3 games is a small sample set. He could start against Golden State and fall flat on his smiling face! But he's looking really good and getting really good results and playing against really good defenses. Instead of playing third banana behind Andrew Wiggins and Nerlens Noel in a few seasons, I see "The Hyphen" being the backbone of this team for years to come!
