requirements to be nominated for 6th man:
the player is at least no. 6 in MPG of the team and the player is not playing more than 30 MPG.
In the NBA, the only requirement for eligibility is to play more games coming off the bench than starting. In theory, a player could average 47 minutes per game coming into the lineup off the bench and be eligible.
So if the game engine and calculate Games Played, and Games Started, then the game engine should be able to determine eligibility. At that point, it's probably then a matter of just running the same MVP calculations for the eligible players.
It seems there's a general opinion that most posters here like the idea of the award, or at least nobody's against it. So if the computer folks can bang out the code, I think this should be a slam dunk. (Not that I mean to spark more discussion on the Slam Dunk Contest here...)
Don't ask what sort of Chunks they are, you probably don't want to know. Blowing Chunks since Season 4!
