Preseason MVP
Robert Gorodetsky: As much as you hate to say it, Gorodetsky is the most valuable player to his team in the league. His team is top 5 in the polls right now, and are legitimate title contenders. You have to wonder where his team would be without him.
Tyler Sugiyama Best "Hustle" Player
Ben Morton: I know he's not the most liked kid in the league, but you can't deny that Morton "never takes a play off" (Dicky V). It rubs some people the wrong way, and they call him a flopper, but when Morton hits the lane he somehow finds a way to put points on the board, whether its making the lay-up, or hitting the charity stripe. Morton, being on a weak team where he can pad stats, has the ability and opportunity to end up a First Team All-America Selection by the end of the year.
Best Shooter
John Haller: For all you skeptics out there, John Haller makes more shots when he's on than anybody. I have a little bias as he's on my team, but this award is legit. I play basketbally almost every day at lunch with John, and he goes on streaks where he swishes, not just makes but swishes, absolutely everything he throws up. His shooting is going to be key if the Globo Gym Purple Cobras want to make a run come February.
Best Rebounder
Willy Moore: Moore would've had a solid chance at making the Varsity squad this year, but he declined to try out in order to pursue the Shoe. He plays center on Men, who came out of the gate quick with a win over Theo (defending champions), and Moore played a key role in their victory.
Best Ball-Handler
Ryan Murningham: Many people will be upset that Gorodetsky is MVP, and will say Murningham is the best player in the league. I completely agree with that statement, but I think that Gorodetsky's team would be nothing without him, while Bari Finkel could still be pretty good without Murningham. Murningham carries the point for the top team in the league, Barifinkel/Team Sit on My Face. He's got a lot of skill at point guard, and is going to have an instrumental role in Barifinkel's run towards the Golden Shoe.

Really?? Taking morton over Furse and healy. I've seen Morton play and all though he is pretty good, he does not match up with Furse's athleticism or healy's shooting. I don't think he is second team material. As far as Robert G goes, I think he has MVP potential. He is his entire team so he is going to score 20 points a game, my pick is either him or that weird skater kid Ryan murnigham.
Another player to watch, the sister of Bari Finkel, Sit on My Face bench warmer Walt Lyon, Maggie Lyon. Maggie is currently a starting PF on the girls varsity team. Shes averaging like 12 points a game as a freshman. Though recent reports are saying she may leave the varsity team to take Walt's place on Bari Finkel, Sit on My Face. Only time will tell
not too mention murnighans skate boarding ability, but he is currently growing some insane flow..
I like most of the all-american.s My boys, sweitzer and murny well deserved of the first team. I wanna make a concession for Big Stu Voit and Charlie Gilvarg. Both should be second team, integral parts of sit on my face. Despite Gillyweed's lack of any endurance whatsoever, he provides big shots and a "billyweed" presence. As for John Haller, great shooter Ive seen him light it up, but I wanna face him in a shooting contest. Not saying I would win, I just wanna have one.
haha gutty's comments are funny
