Rookie Challenge

I saw this tweet from Brandon Jennings today,"And Im not hating on tryeke because he got MVP! he played great. i just thought blair should have got it to." I don't think the game was marred by the decision to give the MVP to Tyreke Evans alone. Brandon Jennings is right though because of the way that DeJaun Blair closed the game. He went after the ball with such tenacity, throwing his body on the floor for a few more rebounds, and getting that last put back as time expired. With that kind of effort, I thought he deserved co-MVP. I think even Tyreke agreed; it seemed like he wanted to share it with Blair when they introduced him as MVP.
