--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We know David Aldridge from nba.com will give Tony Parker 1st team All-NBA vote.

I knew Parker would get All-NBA 3rd team, but it looks like he has a very good chance at All-NBA 2nd team.

Pop seems like he's a lock for COTY.

R.C. is in a tight race for Executive Of The Year.

Nice to see Leonard get a very well deserved All-Rookie 1st team.

Again, this isn't the final tally, but it represents a healthy chunk of the vote.

Kawhi with a 3rd place vote for DPOY! You go young gun!

**T Park** · 04-28-2012

Danny Green not getting more recognition for
Most improved is ridiculous...

**Rapper** · 04-28-2012

Timmy should be on All NBA & All-Defensive Third teams and Tony deserves 1st team

**TDMVPDPOY** · 04-28-2012

lol cp3 ahead of tp, wahhat fkn joke, his been outplayed by tp this season h2h matches, parker has exposed the top5 pg this season, still no recognition

fck that shit, the flopper

**jestersmash** · 04-28-2012

Unfortunately Kobe's only 8 points behind Tony Parker for All-NBA 2nd team right now. There's a good chance he'll bump TP down to All-NBA 3rd once all the votes are in.

**Halberto** · 04-28-2012

K2 getting recongition for defense already. I am so excited for this kid.

I'd say there's more chance TP keeps 2nd and Westbrook gets bumped to 3rd. Look at the MVP race, Westbrook was top 5 most of the year and barely got any votes.
