Sportscity's Daily Hoops Awards - Feb. 8th
The Akeem Olajuwon Award: Chris Bosh --- 36 pts, 11 reb, 5 asst, 8 FTM, 0 stl, 1 blk, 0 threes, and 14-18 FG%...Unlike today's bozo winner, Bosh has made great use of his God-given talents and become an NBA star. At this point I would put him on the all-NBA 1st team over Dwight Howard for the 2009-10 season.

The George Zidek Award: Rasheed Wallace --- 2 pts, 1 reb, 3 asst, 0 FTM, 0 stl, 0 blk, 0 treys, and 1-6 shooting in 19 minutes...One of the biggest underachievers in NBA history, Wallace had a rare combination of size, explosive athleticism, and shooting ability coming out of North carolina in the 1995 draft. Despite that, he never once averaged 20 pts/gm in his career, topping out at 19.3 in 2001-02 with Portland, which was also his best rebounding season, only 8.1. Pathetic...he shoulda been 25 & 12 for 5 or 6 years in his prime.
