Why?

Why not?

AAAhhh... They wouldn't give to Egidijus Mockevicius for the 5th time this early in the season? he is off to an unbelievable start to MVC play averaging 21.5 points and an 18.5 rebounds per game

Fair enough. I didn't think about the recent Player of Week.

Carry on

Also, Fred became the second player in MVC history to record 1000 points, 500 assists, and 400 rebounds. The first was Jake Odum.

These two are a once-in-a-generation combination, like Pippen and Jordan, but are better friends than Michael and Scottie were. Maybe an equal comparison is Antoine Carr and Cliff Levingston or Xavier McDaniel and Aubrey Sherrod.

Fred was on last night's post game show. I wish everybody could have heard the mini-interview.

Fred is just a special person. The right stuff.

Here's a tweet from Todd Golden, the Indiana State beat writer. In his opinion VanVleet is a better player than Mcdermott.

there's an interesting followup quote from Jim Crews, "Everyone else on the court is playing checkers. VanVleet is playing chess."

Give the weekly individual honors to those in second place or lower in the standings. Fred wants another championship and he's well on his way to getting it.
