Here are mine:
Individual Renegadies:
THE MOST FLAMBOYANT HAIR AWARD Sponsored by The Weeknd: Elfrid Payton, Orlando.
I am not sure how Payton is immune to the dead animal that resides on the top of his head but he overcame it all season to average 8.9 PPG, 6.5 APG, and 4.3 RPG, not a bad rookie season.THE
MOST DRAMATIC AWARD Sponsored by the movie Max: Lebron James, Cleveland.
It's sad, but, to me, it seems like Lebron James is slowly losing who he is. He is still the best player in the game and this award has nothing to do with him on the court, but off the court, however, everything seems staged like he's trying to write his own 30 for 30. Post-game interviews just seem really fake to me. I don't know what he can do to change it but, for me, it has been tough to watch from that perspective.
THE MOST OVERRATED AWARD Sponsored by Tim Tebow: JR Smith, Cleveland.
JR was once a feared scorer from all levels. In this year's Finals he was supposed to help LeBron out as he was the only real scoring threat on the team that hadn't gotten injured. If you take away the first half of game 5 and the last two minutes of game 6 (the only two times he got hot), Smith averaged 7.6 points for the series. I like JR but he shot terribly in the Finals when LBJ really needed him and there was a lot of hype surrounding him as a great scorer going in.
THE MOMENT OF SILENCE AWARD Sponsored by this YouTube guy: Brandon Knight, Detroit.
Knight has been on the bad end of many highlights in his career, here's a look at a few of the past. This year, he topped them all with a missed game-winning layup.
All-Renegade Sports Teams
MY ALL-DISGUSTING TEAM (Basically just a team of players that are disturbing in appearance)
G Mike Miller, Cleveland.
Miller has the appearance of what Jim Croce's roller derby queen would look like and was a complete waste of a contract for the Cavs this year. His poorly-placed tattoos, atrocious hairstyles and "beard" would not work for anyone. It's time to retire.
G Matthew Dellavedova, Cleveland.
If you're cool, you've read this and know how I feel about Mr. Dellavedova. His game reminds me of that one teacher's pet you had to deal with all throughout grade school that tried way to hard for no reason. I admire his effort but his playoff beard was not a good look and he constantly looks like he is drooling.
F Chris Andersen, Miami.
Come on man. The "Birdman" is someone who, if you're son came home looking like, you would feel like you have failed as a parent. I would bet money that one day (or over the course of a few months) Anderson went to the tattoo shop and said, "surprise me", or, "do your worst". During last year he tried to get the biker gang beard and mohawk look going? He lives up to what is now his own "image" that people know him for, an image I can't imagine anyone would want unless they enjoy meth.
F Joakim Noah, Chicago.

F Joakim Noah, Chicago.
Man buns are never a good idea but Mr. Noah takes it to another level. There are many people, characters, and things that Noah looks like, none of them are remotely normal. When I see him, I see an Asian Britney Griner. Also his shot never developed after the 2nd grade and is easily one of the ugliest in the league.
F Pau Gasol, Chicago.
Gasol is as sloppy as the come. He looks like an overgrown mountain man who thinks showering is for sissies. The copious amounts of sweat that fill up his beard and long hair can only be described as disturbing.
Honorable mention: Anthony Davis (New Orleans), Shaun Livingston (Golden State), Derrick Rose (Chicago).
ALL-FAVORITE TEAM (My favorite players.)
G Stephen Curry, Golden State.
The baby-faced assassin is one of the best shooters of all time but he showed this year that he can do more that just shoot.
G John Wall, Washington.
Wall is my favorite player since coming out of high school after I watched his high school hoopmixtape. His game is smooth and effortless, much like Curry's, but he is athletic and let's his game do the talking. I think he's the fastest player in the league and, bottom line, Wall is the definition of trill.
F Rudy Gay, Memphis.
I really only like Rudy for three reasons. His game is smooth, his last name is funny, and Sean has no answer for him on 2k.
F Jay Crowder, Boston.
The Celtics are my favorite team and it was a joy to watch this guy play. He doesn't take people's crap and was the epitome of Brad Steven's team which did all the little things necessary to overcome an extreme lack of talent across the board.
C DeAndre Jordan, Los Angeles.
Jordan is a freak athlete who plays extremely hard. He is a human highlight reel and he and his teammates also know how to have fun and not take it too seriously.
Well that wraps up my awards for the NBA Season, and what a season it was. Stay tuned for Sean's awards which won't be as good.
