Even if Donovan Mitchell wins this year, Ben Simmons is a shoo-in for ROTY next year.

He might not. Guarantee he got a nice bonus from Adidas for showing up in that.

Still my favorite at this point. Van is great though.

We need a camera on Donovan when Ben wins. Also, does Ben shout out Donovan in the acceptance speech?

I personally think this is such a weak troll that makes Mitchell look like the fool

It is Mitchell essentially admitting in a troll he isn’t as good as Simmons

How is this trolling? It just makes him look petty and it’s basically him admitting he didn’t have as good of a season as BS but should get it on a technicality. But I guess a word written on a car is EPIC trolling

If you were up for a first-year performance bonus right out of college at work, but some dude who got to sit out for a year and shadow another employee won it over you, you wouldn’t be a bit irked by it?

I find that hard to believe.

Simmons is not a rookie. He had a year to adapt to the every day life of being a pro.

It is a lame troll in that sense, but I'm willing to overlook that just to appreciate the lengths he's going to entertain me and keep it light and fun.

I would definitely show up to the annual company banquet in a van with "First year performance bonus" on it.

Did his rookie deal start last year after he was drafted or this year?

Not sure how someone can argue this fact.

You're not sure how I can argue the fact that the guy that is going to win Rookie of the Year is, in FACT, a rookie?

In every single sport besides the nfl he is eligible for rookie
