looks like kawhi is getting first team accolades...

Durant getting cucked by Westbrook :lol

I thought KD has easily been the third most valuable player behind kawhi and Curry, imo. Paul and James tied at 4th.

First Spur to get first team honours since TD.

:claw

Where'd you hear that? I really hope he makes it

90% of the ballots ive seen and heard so far has durant as a second team. It makes sense because they didnt want to award two okc guys for first team with 54 wins.

source? or general impression from published sample votes..

I actually think LeBron has clearly been the #2 guy this year, and Kawhi/KD is a toss-up for the 3rd/4th best players. Then CP3/Westbrook are the next 2 guys.

Regardless, hopefully you're right. Would be great to see Kawhi get All-NBA 1st team along with DPOY

I haven't seen many people giving Kawhi the DPOY. Bill Simmons and Zach Lowe are two that come to mind. They are "rewarding" the Warriors for a great season. Which will look pretty sad if the Warriors don't ring.

General impressions from guys with official ballots.

Hes got a better shot at first team than dpoy this year...seems like it. Still a decent shot of getting both.

Lebron is getting 2nd in MVP.

That's awesome, he deserves it. What is the format for All-NBA these days anyway? 1 x Centre, 2 x Forwards, 2 x Guards? Or just 3 frontcourt and 2 backcourt? With the way the game has changed I think they should take away the C and just have it has 3 frontcourt guys and 2 backcourt guys. Maybe it already is, I dunno.

Yep. 2G, 2F, 1C. But the league has said that Draymond Green is eligible at F and C, so he'll get a few votes at C. Although most ballots I've seen have Cousins.

I wonder if green c votes will affect his forward spot for 2nd team..

[apalisoc_9]

I know Kawhi had Guard votes last year and got a total of 155 12th most...i dont know if those guatd votes ruined his all nba third team.

The Washington Post even makes a big deal about Kawhi and LeBron pushing Durant to 2nd team.
