ג'ון שומן מה-NBA.COM ערך שוב את השאלון שלו בקרב הרוקיס.

שלושת הרוקיס שבאים עם הרפיוטציה הגדולה ביותר הם בן סימונס, ג'ואל אמביד, ודריו סאריץ' החיוור שבא לליגה עם נסיון אירופאי.

אבל הרוקי'ס עצמם לא בחרו אף אחד מהם בשאלון השנתי שעורך ג'ון שומן, וזאת השנה הששית שאני מכניס אותו כאן. בשנה שעברה הרוקיס  בחרו בקרל-אנטוני טאונס להיות 'רוקי השנה' והם טעו. שנה לפני כן הם בחרו באנדרו וויגינס, והם צדקו. השנה הם בחרו דווקא את החמישי בדראפט, כריס דאן ממינסוטה.

מי שמעוניין בתוצאות השאלונים משנים עברו  – הנה הן:

אז יאללה, לשאלון (שניתן לכל הרוקיס של העונה ללא יוצא מין הכלל)

Who will be the 2016-17 Kia Rookie of the Year?

1. Kris Dunn, Minnesota — 29.0%

2. Brandon Ingram, L.A. Lakers — 25.8%

3. Ben Simmons, Philadelphia — 19.4%

Others receiving votes: DeAndre Bembry, Atlanta; Joel Embiid, Philadelphia; Damian Jones, Golden State; Skal Labissiere, Sacramento;Taurean Prince, Atlanta; Malachi Richardson, Sacramento; Dario Saric, Philadelphia; Pascal Siakam, Toronto

Last year: Jahlil Okafor — 41.9%

Worth noting: This makes four straight years where the No. 1 pick was not selected by his fellow rookies to win the Kia Rookie of the Year award. Of course, the No. 1 pick has been the Kia Rookie of the Year each of the last two seasons.

Which rookie will have the best career?

1. Brandon Ingram, L.A. Lakers — 26.7%

2. Kris Dunn, Minnesota — 16.7%

3. Buddy Hield, New Orleans — 13.3%

T-4. Dragan Bender, Phoenix — 6.7%

Jaylen Brown, Boston — 6.7%

Jamal Murray, Denver — 6.7%

Ben Simmons, Philadelphia — 6.7%

Others receiving votes: Dejounte Murray, San Antonio; Dario Saric, Philadelphia; Pascal Siakam, Toronto; Tyler Ulis, Phoenix; Denzel Valentine, Chicago

Last year: Jahlil Okafor — 24.1%

Worth noting: Following Jabari Parker in 2014 and Jahlil Okafor in 2015, Ingram is the fourth straight Duke Blue Devil to receive the most votes on this question. There was a time when Dukies were thought to have consistently underwhelming NBA careers.

Which rookie was the biggest steal at where he was selected in the Draft?

1. Dejounte Murray (29), San Antonio — 16.1%

2. Tyler Ulis (34), Phoenix — 12.9%

T-3. Malcolm Brogdon (36), Milwaukee — 6.5%

Jaylen Brown (3), Boston — 6.5%

Kay Felder (54), Cleveland — 6.5%

Skal Labissiere (28), Sacramento — 6.5%

Thon Maker (10), Milwaukee — 6.5%

Isaiah Whitehead (42), Brooklyn — 6.5%

Others receiving votes: DeAndre Bembry (21), Atlanta; Marquese Chriss (8), Phoenix; Cheick Diallo (33), New Orleans; Kris Dunn (5), Minnesota; Brice Johnson (25), L.A. Clippers; Damian Jones (30), Golden State; Jake Layman(47), Portland; Timothe Luwawu (24), Philadelphia; Ben Simmons (1), Philadelphia; Stephen Zimmerman (41), Orlando

Last year: Joe Young — 12.1%

Worth noting: It wouldn't be the first time the Spurs got a quality player outside the Lottery. In fact, Murray is the third Spur — following DeJuan Blairin 2009 and Kyle Anderson in 2014 — to receive the most votes here, though the question was phrased as "Which rookie is being most overlooked?" until last year.

Which rookie is the most athletic?

1. Jaylen Brown, Boston — 38.7%

2. Brice Johnson, L.A. Clippers — 16.1%

3. Marquese Chriss, Phoenix — 9.7%

T-4. Malik Beasley, Denver — 6.5%

Kay Felder, Cleveland — 6.5%

Gary Payton II, Houston — 6.5%

Others receiving votes: Wade Baldwin, Memphis; Cheick Diallo, New Orleans; Jake Layman, Portland; Ben Simmons, Philadelphia; Tyler Ulis, Phoenix

Last year: Justin Anderson — 27.8%

Worth noting: Brown didn't take part in speed and agility testing at the Draft Combine, where the highest max vertical leap belonged to Felder and the fastest lane agility time belonged to Utah's Joel Bolomboy. Previous top vote-getters for this question include Al Thornton, Terrico White and Tony Mitchell. The No. 3 pick will probably have a longer NBA career than those guys did.

Which rookie is the best shooter?

1. Buddy Hield, New Orleans — 65.7%

2. Jamal Murray, Denver — 20.0%

Others receiving votes: Kris Dunn, Minnesota; Brandon Ingram, L.A. Lakers; Brice Johnson, L.A. Clippers; Timothe Luwawu, Philadelphia; Malachi Richardson, Sacramento

Last year: Devin Booker — 58.8%

Worth noting: These rooks respect the guys (Dunn and Hield) who played four years in college. Hield, who shot 46 percent from 3-point range as a senior at Oklahoma, received the most votes for any single question this year and the most votes for this question since Stephen Curry received 79 percent in 2009.

Which rookie is the best defender?

1. Kris Dunn, Minnesota — 23.5%

2. Gary Payton II, Houston — 20.6%

3. Malcolm Brogdon, Milwaukee — 17.6%

4. Tyler Ulis, Phoenix — 8.8%

T-5. Jaylen Brown, Boston — 5.9%

Kay Felder, Cleveland — 5.9%

Others receiving votes: Cheick Diallo, New Orleans; Brandon Ingram, L.A. Lakers; Demetrius Jackson, Boston; Brice Johnson, L.A. Clippers; Jakob Poeltl, Toronto; Taurean Prince, Atlanta

Last year: Rondae Hollis-Jefferson — 23.5%

Worth noting: Dunn was the top vote-getter for five different questions. In the previous seven editions of the survey, the only other players to be the sole top vote-getter for more than two questions were Blake Griffin (3 in 2009) andJohn Wall (3 in 2010). The guy who finished second here has a legacy to live up to. His dad earned one of the best nicknames in NBA history — "The Glove" — for his defense.

Which rookie is the best playmaker?

1. Kris Dunn, Minnesota — 29.4%

2. Ben Simmons, Philadelphia — 26.5%

3. Tyler Ulis, Phoenix — 20.6%

4. Denzel Valentine, Chicago — 8.8%

5. Kay Felder, Cleveland — 5.9%

Others receiving votes: Thon Maker, Milwaukee; Dejounte Murray, San Antonio; Dario Saric, Philadelphia; Brandon Ingram, L.A. Lakers

Last year: D'Angelo Russell — 40.0%

Worth noting: In total, Dunn received 39 votes (on seven different questions), 11 more than any other rookie. Simmons and Ulis received votes for six of the first eight questions, tying for second for the "Mr. Versatility" award.

Which rookie is the funniest?

1. Kris Dunn, Minnesota — 15.2%

T-2. Diamond Stone, L.A. Clippers — 12.1%

Denzel Valentine, Chicago — 12.1%

T-4. Brice Johnson, L.A. Clippers — 6.1%

Taurean Prince, Atlanta — 6.1%

Ivica Zubac, L.A. Lakers — 6.1%

Others receiving votes: Malik Beasley, Denver; Jaylen Brown, Boston; Cheick Diallo, New Orleans; Henry Ellenson, Detroit; Kay Felder, Cleveland; Buddy Hield, New Orleans; Brandon Ingram, L.A. Lakers; Damian Jones, Golden State; Timothe Luwawu, Philadelphia; Thon Maker, Milwaukee;Chinanu Onuaku, Houston; Ben Simmons, Philadelphia; Tyler Ulis, Phoenix; Stephen Zimmerman, Orlando

Last year: Rondae Hollis-Jefferson — 44.3%

Worth noting: There are a lot of funny guys in this rookie class and that's with no votes for Embiid, who was the top vote-getter in 2014. Nobody has dominated this question more than DeMarcus Cousins, who received 45 percent of the votes in 2010.

What will be the biggest adjustment for you, playing in the NBA?

1. Speed or pace of the game — 40.9%

2. Physicality (size and strength of opponents) — 21.2%

3. Lifestyle & time management — 18.2%

4. Length of season — 6.1%

Also receiving votes: 3-point distance, Defense, Playing time, Mental focus, Travel

Last year: Speed or pace of the game — 38.6%

Worth noting: A couple of guys answered "the down time" and "being on my own," both filed under "Lifestyle and time management." Make smart decisions, fellas.

Who is your favorite player in the league?

1. Kevin Durant, Golden State — 29.7%

T-2. Carmelo Anthony, New York — 9.4%

LeBron James, Cleveland — 9.4%

Chris Paul, L.A. Clippers — 6.3%

T-9. Kevin Garnett, Minnesota — 4.7%

Others receiving votes: Vince Carter, Memphis; Stephen Curry, Golden State; Marc Gasol, Memphis; Kyrie Irving, Cleveland

Last year: Kevin Durant — 21.2%

Worth noting: KD joining the Warriors apparently didn't turn off the rookies. In fact, this is the third straight year that he was named the new guys' favorite player and he received a greater percentage of the vote this year than he did in 2014 (25.0 percent) or 2015 (21.2 percent).
