    There is no logical way you can make this choice. It is simply a matter of an emotional decision (I like Robinson better. ) It’s O.K. Robinson isn’t a bad choice just the wrong choice, but the award isn’t important anyway. The real truth will be known in 3 years. Robinson is as good as he will ever be and will have little or no impact at the next level, like most POY selections.

    TRob = Thug Anybody who has played the game of basketball knows when you stand over a player intentionally, stare down at him, and walk completely over his head is the biggest DISRESPECT one player can do to another player. Its a T-Bag move!!! I would love to know how many times TRob has done this during the year. Have to admit, TRob has a patent on this move – just notice how he raises his hands over his head every time he walks over the defender’s head. While looking for more evidence, a K-State fan stated TRob intentionally stood over a player 3 times during their game alone! Here are just 3 videos to prove my point. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zhip_Pdj4Uw http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zwsg6wBuX0k http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MwtqYm0LdXA There is no excuse for this what so ever…I don’t recall anyone EVER doing this so many times – especially from a POY finalist. I conclude from this day forward: TRob = TBag

    POY = year long award. Robinson can live up to that. Davis can’t. Pretty sure Robinson does it on both ends of the floor too, just because Robinson is not a shot blocker doesn’t mean he doesn’t play a significant role on the defensive end. Withey is the shot blocker so give up on that argument, please.

    Davis hands down. MVP of your team doesn’t mean POY

    Really like Thomas Robinson, but Anthony Davis is the best player in the country in my opinion with his ability on both ends of the floor.

      No doubt, Davis is a monster.
