JaVale McGee thinks it would be "a crime" if his Wizards teammate Andray Blatche doesn't win the NBA's Most Improved Player award. Strong language, sure. But McGee -- and Blatche -- have a strong case.
In his fifth season, Blatche's statistical leap spans the box score; he's averaging career-high numbers in points (14.1 per game), rebounds (6.3), assists (2.1) and field goal percentage (47.9).
But circumstances will likely prevent Blatche from winning Most Improved Player, an award he admittedly covets. His improvement has only manifested itself in a 32-game post-All-Star break stat party.
