Thomas is a GREAT OFFENSIVE player and he does well to compensate for his
height by "playing smart" on defense, and yes, the Pistons would be in real
trouble without him, but in my opinion he is simply not that good.

It's real tough for a guard to be the PLAYER OF THE YEAR.  For Thomas to
win that title, he'd certainly have to be the NBA's best guard.  Give
me Cheeks, DJ, and Magic over Thomas any day.
