Considering we only played one game this week and the majority of Hardaway's points came in the 1st half. Nice to see the love our players are getting week in and week out.

But of the 11 weeks listed, we have at least one player winning one award in  eight of them with the longest streak being four weeks. Not only are we good, we're a headline act. It's nice to get that sort of attention again.
