This is awesome!

Who cares about Rookie of the Year?

Tatum is going to be SPECIAL!

I actually think the title of this award is much more significant than the Rookie of the Year award which can go to empty stat guys on bad teams.  Don't you think Michael Carter Williams would rather have been most likely to succeed than Rookie of the Year?

I agree moiso. When Tatum gets used to the Association...he's going to be dynamite for a LONG time.

I guess Most Likely To Succeed is sort of like "highest floor"?
