'DJ' is the unanimous choice
Fury forward takes MVP in record-breaking season
There has never been a string of more exciting players come through FBNYC than the past two seasons.
Last season, Christian "Pogo" Stevens swept onto the scene with a dazzling array of dunks, dimes, boards and blocks, easily sweeping up the MVP.
This season, Darren "DJ" Jiang did what should have been impossible. He topped that. With his own array of alley-oop finishes, facials and finding the bucket prolifically from inside and out, DJ's production was unprecedented in FBNYC. His selection as FBNYC MVP was unanimous. Finally finding a offensive system in which he could do his thing, DJ responded night after night with huge numbers, leading his team to a 1st place finish and a Chivas Cup appearance. -- FBNYC Runner-Ups: Tony Hu (CHR), Jon Scheiman (BTR)
The Fluctuations' frontcourt was impenetrable when (C) Brandon Chock, (F) Varun Bhartiya and (F) Punit Menda were --unfortunately, that would only be for three games. All three were Def. MVP candidates, Chock was a cut above.

There was no guard more exciting than CHR's Phillip Moon this season. His explosive quickness made him a highlight reel regular, all while making solid contributions to the Royals ORC regular season championship run.

In a season full of career bests, BEL (G) Will Lee's numbers topped them all. Lee's 17.9 ppg topped his previous "A" league best by more than 8 ppg. His FG%, 3P% and FT% were all career highs.
A prolific scorer in the "B" league, BEL's svelt forward was instant offense for the B Elite squad this season off the bench. Zeng's .457 shooting from the field and 8.8 rebounds per game were both career highs.

2K7 SPR All-Star Game
FBNYC, 6.4.07
ORI's make All-Star Game no contest In a bit of role reversal from a season ago, the ORI's dominated the 2K7 SUM All-Star Game from tip-off
Occidental Conference ORIENTAL CONFERENCE
83 111
Chivas FBNYC "A" League All-Stars (L to R): Oriental Conference - Darren Jiang (FBK), Rathan Haran (TFS), Brandon Chock (TFS), Will Lee (BEL), Varun Bhartiya (TFS), Ren Hsieh (FBK); Occidental Conference - Tony Hu (CHR), Albert Chung (CHR), Phillip Moon (CHR), Jiang Yu (BTR) and Jon Scheiman (BTR).
It's not often a player verges on a quiet triple-double. Hu was just 3 assists from doing just that. He might not have made the spectacular plays his teammates did, but he had a hand in every one.
The game itself was no contest pretty much from beginning to end, but that didn't mean there was any shortage of highlights. Duke Hogwild works his magic with a little help from our friends in Central Asia.
