Leonard 2016 DPOY

[Spurtacular]

All's Gaymond does is put an f'ing elbow into the post player's back while the refs pretend not to see it. that .

[Spurtacular]

One voter left KL off his ballot. Nine left Gaymond off their ballots.

Bill Worrell: who is this hater and how come such a person get a vote?

[Raven]

easiest DPOY of the last decade.

[GSH]

Also, Leonard got 84+41+4 = 129 votes. Looks like there were 130 voters in total (Draymond 121). Who was the lone voter who didn't have Kawhi 1-2-3?

Yeah, that's just a hater. It's bad enough ranking Draymond above Kawhi. But three other players? There must be a #neverKawhi movement out there.

The Rocket's play by play guy for the past 30+ years.

I think he's becoming a bit senile..

That's one ugly ass trophy tho

Why did they make a trophy that looks like a little bald white guy?

Kevin Johnson played for the Suns not the Bulls. You are mixing him up with BJ Armstrong.

Ahh yeah sorry! Got mixed up with the Sirius hosts.

Kawhi = 84 first place votes, 547 points
Green = 44 first place votes, 421 points
Whiteside = 2 first place votes, 83 points

out of 130 voters.

So one voter didn't have Kawhi in his top 3

Do Sherwood-Strauss or El Hassan get votes? Those would be my suspects

[BatManu20]

Yea idk what's up with the trophy. The head is also disproportionately big compared to the body.

[spursistan]

Kawhi best argument >> Draymond best argument

Kawhi is like those countries who have a "nuclear bomb".. they have a deterrence weapon that you won't dare to go to war against them....

[sasaint]

Raymond must be pissed.

Not to mention his mom.

Warriors voters and Clippers voters put their guy first and the other guy third just to try to cheat the voting process, which is how Kawhi got it last year. Not a surprise that a Warriors voter got even more bold about it this year. Media members that do that should be stripped of their vote. Clearly Green and Leonard are in the top three, no matter what team you root for.

It's in preparation for Kyle Anderson winning it.

It's not that disproportionate..

Kawhi's had a unique Nintendo like shirt.

Same shirt that he wore when the Spurs went to see Hamilton on Broadway.

I think its dope tbh

[sasaint]

It's ridiculous some of the bs Kawhi gets called for when guarding these guys. I think in the home loss against the Warriors there was one play where Kawhi had a clean block on Curry but was called for a foul. I have seen Kawhi get legit steals or blocks against superstar players and still get called for phantom bs.

Don't remember the clean block, but I definitely remember the clean open court steal of the pass out of Curry's hands! Totally outrageous call against DPOY, Kawhi.

[mudyez]

Whoooohoooo...anything from Greens fat mum via twitter yet?

[GSH]

Aw man... Kawhi is doing something very cool with the car he got with the award, and I can't tell the story. He's a really good guy, though, in addition to being a great defender.
