Blake had 13.7 PPG and 8.1 RBS in his first NBA preseason 2009. Funny that his first season in college he averaged 14.7 PPG and 9.1 RBS. Even funnier that in his second season in college he averaged 22.7 PPG and 14.4 RBS; and his "first" season in the NBA he averaged 22.5 PPG and 12.1 RBS. My point is that Blake obviously matured a lot as a player in the year he sat out his rookie season. I think John Wall would have deserved the RotY if he played against Blake in his ACTUAL rookie season. IMHO.
Rip Norm Macdonald, true legend.
whoever said JW deserve Roy over Blake you now can never talk about basketball again

lasoogneypubes That's hilarious. I can't stop laughing.
Can someone please tell me why he was rookie of the year? cause he was the #1 pick in the 09?
They should've made them Co-rookie of the year, it really isnt fair to John Wall imo who outshined all the other rookies from his draft class.
blacktee31 it wasn't his fault he was hurt don't penalize playa for being hurt
I was surprised when griffin won it, don't get me wrong he's a great player but... john wall played so well for the wizards
It should have been John Wall.
is it?...yup...the first thing donald sterling has did right in 30 years
should've been curry or harden
he got drafted the same year as those guys but he missed his whole first year so this was for the next year.
shouldnt even be getting this award. John wall got robbed!!!
arrowkidd It was synonymous. I mean ananymous. I mean he got all the 1st place votes.
Should've been John Wall....Blake # 2.
Blake averaged 22 and 12, while Wall averaged 16 and 7 with a horrible 3pt FG%, plus his team sucked.
North Virginian huh 22 12 & 4 ast has was jw better?
