NEW YORK (Jan 16, 1995 - 14:46 EST) -- David Robinson of the San Antonio Spurs won the NBA Player of the Week award on Tuesday. Robinson, last season's MVP, averaged 22.5 points, 16 rebounds, four assists and 3.75 blocked shots per game as the Spurs won all four of their games last week. For the season, he leads the NBA in rebounding with 12.4 per game, is second in blocked shots with 3.73 and third in scoring at 25.8. Other candidates for the award were Boston's Dino Radja, Chicago's Michael Jordan, Denver's Dale Ellis, Detroit's Grant Hill, Golden State's Latrell Sprewell, Indiana's Dale Davis, Milwaukee's Vin Baker, Orlando's Anfernee Hardaway, Phoenix's A.C. Green and Seattle's Shawn Kemp. SAN ANTONIO (Apr 25, 1996 - 16:42 EST) -- David Robinson added the fifth IBM award to his collection on Thursday, getting the prize determined by a computerized rating measuring a player's overall contribution to his team. Robinson led the San Antonio Spurs to a 59-23 record and the Midwest Division title this season, averaging 25 points, 12.2 rebounds, 3.3 blocks, 3 assists and 1.35 steals per game. He ranked second in the league in rebounding, third in shot blocking and fifth in scoring. Robinson finished with 106.78 points, beating Grant Hill of Detroit, who had 105.86 point; Karl Malone of Utah, 95.70 points; Michael Jordan of Chicago, 94.27 points; and Alonzo Mourning of Miami, 94.01 points. Robinson also received the award in 1990, 1991, 1994 and 1995. He has won it more than any other player. Charles Barkley of Phoenix, who Robinson and the Spurs face in the playoffs starting Friday, has won the award three times. The IBM Award was created before the 1983-84 season. It is calculated using key offensive and defensive individual statistics and team victories. "To be honest with you, this is my favorite award out of all of them because I am a mathematician and the numbers just don't lie," Robinson said with a grin. |
