Reaves has had a great season, and according to ESPN's Dave McMenamin, Lakers head coach JJ Redick doesn't think Reaves has any chance of winning the award. "I hate this award, they don't define it," Redick said. "Its spirit has been distorted. It's just called a high-pick pick, with a max salary contract, and an All-Star player award. That's what you call it. Who is that person? This is what it has become. ”
