Not looking at per minute averages. Outside of his rebounding percentage/steals (which remained status quo) his advanced stats are up across the board. Literally. Dragic dipped in some areas way more than Davis did.
Yes, Davis improved (almost) across the board SLIGHTLY.
Dragic improved in most areas, but did dip in a couple SLIGHTLY.
But Dragic had the most drastic IMPROVEMENTS. Davis didn't improve drastically anywhere.
Dragic's dips were extremely small to the point where it's really not even a dip. Davis' improvements were either due to increased minutes and expected improvement from one year to the next at his age. They weren't drastic night and day differences like with Dragic.
Davis was good last year, he just didn't get enough minutes. While Davis did better than almost everybody thought he would, it wasn't particularly surprising that Davis would be a beast.

It really would have been a slap in the face if a #1 overall pick would have won this award in his 2nd year in the league....

I thought Dragic deserved to win, but lets not say his dips were "slight"
35.7 ast% to 28.1 is a huge drop, considering his average is 29.4% as well.
His ast#s went down from 7.4->5.9 while playing 1.5 more minutes. per 36, thats going from 7.9apg to 6.0apg while keeping the same TO#s
His drastic improvement in shooting % 44.3 to 50.5 is a big jump and so is his 3pt% of 31.9 to 40.8.
His usage rate also went up.
He rightfully deserved it, but to act as if the part where he dipped isn't important is being narrow minded.
