NBL Most Improved Candidates

Some of the following players might just take their games up a notch in 18/19..
Drmic ( more minutes without Creek)
DKD ( big chance to improve on weak Cairns team.)
Hodgson ( will probably start, from Joey's doghouse to Anderj's penthouse.)
Ogilvy ( due to bounce back)
Steindl ( Perth need more from him)

Other suggestions?
Norton
Blanchfield
Cadee

Thoughts ....

Don't know about most improved, but DKD has the most potential in terms of output.

Could be Deng as well since he will share the minutes with Drmic from Creek.

Tom Jervis is now in the running.

He's game is made for Perth Bball. Completely different player at Perth!

"He's game"

The amount of people here that don’t understand the difference between his and he’s is astounding.

A lot of people don't have time for punctuation, that's all it was.

There are some more established players who could be a chance- or is their base too high?

Shea Ili

Blanchfield- can you win it twice?

After last season and everyone suggesting that Lucas Walker was at best in the conversation need to remember the league told us it was an up and coming player that took a step forward in his career to establish themselves as a star.

So yeah Dexter, Delaney, Moller, Drmic and Hodgson seem the obvious choices right now but are there any others that we can imagine will get unexpected court time and become stars?

I think Majok Majok could surprise us how good he really is, if he can stay healthy and being that there is a matchup for him in every team and he was leading rebounder in the Comp for a good portion of the season not that many years ago I think he has a chance.

I'd love to see a huge season from Mitch Young but unless there are injuries he is probably too far down in the pecking order.

Adam Doyle, I say this not as a joke but this guy signed a 3 year deal and has given and shown absolutely nothing so 36ers must have seen something in him, it's his time to step up and fight Deleon for his minutes

"Get over yourselves. You got the idea"

So everyone who reads it has to make the effort to work out what you meant because you didn't make the effort to get it right first time. If you feel your time and effort are so much more valuable than anyone else's, I'm not sure we're the ones who need to get over ourselves.

All good candidates, but I think DKD will be the MIP this upcoming NBL season.

Norton is the answer. Bevo will UNLOCK the potential in his game. He's been playing hard, now his game will be all about playing SMART.

Norton playing for Gleeson now.
If Martin gets injured then Norton will see a spike in playing time which makes him a chance for MIP.

Walker - A Champion sad to see him leave Perth

DKD - like Santa will bring joy once a year ;) - A Crab!

Drmic - Ditto ^^^^^


Steindl - I am not a fan - I can't even clap him at the games :(

Sunday Dech or Lochlan Cummings better options in my opinion.


My Picks
--------

Delaney
Ogilvy
Walker
