I went with Belly in part because his year was so disappointing last year. I really hope it's Wiggins though, in terms of efficiency, outside shooting, and defense, because then 50 wins would not be so crazy!

I voted Wiggins as I think his 3-point shooting is going to become more reliable while Thibs will get him to play up to his potential on defense!

For the future of the franchise... I'm pinning my hopes on Wiggins.
As the eternal optimist of the board, I have no other choice.

Dieng, if he gets the starting spot without being jerked to the bench back and forth. His bulk stats were rather poultry so far. But the guy showed that he can be a 20-10 guy on quite a few nights, plus he's got big defensive potential with proper coaching at last. He's got 9-3 standing reach and sneaky quick hands.

One of the reasons I started this thread was because I think anyone in the list could be MIP this year, and that's pretty exciting. My first choice is Belly because of the vast difference between his Euro play and his play most of last year, and because of the way Thibs has been fawning over him. I think his play at the end of the year is what we can expect, and that's very good. As much as I like Gorgui, I would not be stunned to see Belly starting at PF at some point this year.
My second choice is Tyus Jones, but only because I suspect he could be backing up Ricky at PG this season (at this point in time, I still prefer Dunn at SG). He looked great in SL in front of Thibs, has improved his body in the off season, and is a proven winner. If he is given enough minutes, I think he has a chance to be our MIP.
Honorable mention goes to Zach and Bazz.

Went with Belly primarily because he sucked for most of last year. He has a lot of room for improvement.
