But there are a couple of categories that the league missed so theBVX.com decided to lend the NBA a hand for some of the more… unconventional award categories.

1. All “Scrapping” Team

Kevin Garnett: He’s got the biggest mouth in the NBA and has gotten under the skin of the best players pushing them to scrap or at least throw them off their game.

Ron Artest: He admitted to drinking Hennessey at half time, was the biggest offender in the “Malice at the Palace” incident and even stepped to Kobe Bryant during the 2009 playoffs. Ron Ron is a defensive firecracker that everyone wants as a teammate but hates to play against.

Rasheed Wallace: Registering 14 during the 2009-10 regular season, Wallace is the NBA all-time leader in technical fouls at 304. Sheed’s crazy eyes and careless fouls at crucial points in the game show fans he’s not all there.

Kenyon Martin: He once stepped to Mavericks’ owner Mark Cuban for talking about his mama and this season he threatened to “put hands” on a teammate who played a practical joke on him– on April Fool’s Day.

2. All “Is that Yo Chick?” Team

Dwyane Wade: The Heat star is involved in a love triangle with Gabrielle Union and his ex-wife, Siohvaughn. Wade’s ex recently sued, claiming that Union and Wade partake in public foreplay in front of her kids causing them undue stress. Using your kids to sue the woman who took your man? Where they do that at?

Dwight Howard: He counts Royce Reed, former NBA dance team member who got low, low, low at a poolside party on YouTube for millions to see, as his baby mama.

Dirk Nowitzki: Fooled by a woman with a history of marrying men and leaving them with thousands of dollars in debt, Dirk reportedly gave his girl a $250,000 engagement ring before she was arrested. While behind bars she tried to trap the star by claiming she was pregnant, which was untrue.

Kobe Bryant: After Vanessa Bryant grabbed a $4 million, 8-carat apology ring from Kobe, her antics in the press and in private screamed “I run this man! Who want it with Nessa?” He cheated, he stayed and now he must deal with the monster he created.

Shaquille O’Neal: His ex-wife, Shaunie O’Neal, is the godmother of VH1′s new show “Basketball Wives,” which uncovers the secret, shallow lives of the women behind the game and their cheating men.

3. All “You Need Some Clippers” Team

Rasheed Wallace: Homeless people have neater hairlines. Rasheed seems to have given up on personal hygiene all together.

John Salmons: His beard is braiding length but has converted to the Rastafarian religion and become a dreadlock.

Marc Gasol: The Jesus look is old and Mark’s brother, Pau Gasol of the Lakers, lets us know that a dapper Gasol is possible.

Chris “The Birdman” Andersen: The Birdman Mohawk actually suits him very well. It’s when he forgets his gel and rocks the country trucker look that he scares the little children.

LeBron James: His hairline is moving further and further back and the natural he has going isn’t fit for The King.

4. All “He’s Still in The NBA?” Team

Juwan Howard: The 15 year NBA veteran had to step up for the Trail Blazers after several key players experienced injuries this season. The Blazers somehow found their way to the playoffs as Howard averaged 22 minutes per game in the regular season.

Theo Ratliff: Theo is comically referred to as “Theo Ratliff’s expiring contract” by ESPN’s Bill Simmons because that’s the only time his name was mentioned during trade talks.

Vince Carter: Once dubbed “Half-Man, Half-Amazing” for his high-flying dunks, the former All-Star weekend champ was grounded. But partnering with Superman Dwight Howard has renewed Carter’s career by giving him a legitimate shot at an NBA title.

Grant Hill: After numerous ankle surgeries and rehab, NBA fans had retired Grant. But Phoenix’s fresh air helped him start 81 of 82 games this season, and now folks can watch him blitz by on his journey to the Western Conference Finals.

Kurt Thomas: After 14 years and eight NBA teams, Kurt still hasn’t found a championship. But he’s found his fountain of youth in Milwaukee with rookie Brandon Jennings who has carried Thomas and the Bucks to the first round of the playoffs this season.
