When a team goes 40-6 in the regular season, its players deserve recognition for their success.
The Hamamatsu Higashimikawa Phoenix are getting that publicity, including the following: Forward Jeffrey Parmer was named the bj-league's regular season MVP on Tuesday.
Joining Parmer on the Best Five team are Phoenix guard Wayne Arnold, Shimane Susanoo Magic guard Takumi Ishizaki and forwards Michael Parker of the Rizing Fukuoka and Anthony McHenry of the Ryukyu Golden Kings. A true center was not selected for this year's squad in voting done by league personnel, including players and coaches.
