I think having won the AP Player of the Year award last year will end up hurting his chances of winning it again this year. Its not often that the player of the year comes back (last player was Superman himself, Shaquille O'Neal) but there are several players that are making a name for themselves and will give Tyler a run for his money. Blake Griffin and Stephen Curry are certainly two names that jump out at you. I also like what Luke Harangody is doing over at Notre Dame.
