Here is a look at it from an analytics point of view:

That Dillon Jones is second team all BSC is a bit of a stunner. Seemed to reward Bishop because of his role in MSU's rise to the top and John Knight for his continued success.

I agree Bishop got a championship bump. As the analytics point out, he is a little overrated.
He was basically 15p/3r/4a in conference on 43%FG. His stats look much better because he basically plays the entire game (conference leading 36mpg).
