Month honors? In NBA 2K11 I created a player called Nick Cannon and he's a 6'2 point guard for the Rockets and earned Rookie of the Month for the Western Conference in November but got injured in December and now it's January. John Wall has earned Rookie of the Month Honors in the Eastern Conference for November and December. Just wondering how many times players are usually named Rookie of the Month before being awarded Rookie of the Year. Like I wonder how many times Michael Jordan, Allen Iverson, LeBron James, or Vince Carter earned Rookie of the Month honors on their way to being named Rookie of the Year. That would be cool to find out.
