SOUNDBITE: (English) Michael Carter-Williams, NBA Rookie of the Year:

"You know, this award is great, it's greatly appreciated. But I'd definitely trade this award in for a second to be in the play-offs. And watching what I'm seeing now, event the coach is still telling me now 'watch the play-offs, look at how different the game is'. You know, I do see it, it's a whole different season. You know, this game is about winning, you know, it's not about individual awards. They're great. I worked hard for it, I appreciate it. But like I said before, I would trade this in for a minute. And last but not least, again, I want to thank the Philadelphia fans. When we got rolling a little bit, and we started playing well in game here and there, the crowd was ridiculous. They show a great amount of love even when we were at our worst point."
