Adam Morrison, J.J. Redick Win Co-Players of the Year




Posted by Jeff Chan Categories: Athletes, Kudos, NCAA, College Basketball,

I guess both teams getting knocked out in the third round Sweet 16 of the NCAA tournament made the United States Basketball Writers Association unable to decide who deserved the award, as Adam Morrison and J.J. Redick both walked away with the Player of the Year honors.  The last time this happened was in 1979 when Larry Bird and Magic Johnson were both named co-player of the year as well.  Most fans shouldn’t be up in arms about this, despite the fact Redick fans will argue that Redick and Duke played under tougher competition in the ACC rather than the WCC conference.  It won’t be a bad thing that their names will be linked together in history especially in the same sentence as Bird and Magic.
