If the voting was done after the POs Tony Allen would be first team and Ibaka would have won DPOY tbh...

Not gonna disagree.
We're all a little salty the trade for him didn't work out like ST expected..
Harden receiving votes.
How in the did Harden get votes? That has to be a troll job
James Harden got a vote
TP received more votes than Green
Edit: Beat me to it...we're all thinking the same thing then.
Durant, Westbrook and Parker all more votes that Green.
Green is seriously so underrated.
Well deserved Kawhi!!!
Good, the Spurs will sign him for a good value again next year.
lol at Anthony Davis being left off entirely.
Also, Noah is the most overrated super scrub possibly ever. Close to Udonis Haslem.
I think the first thing we ALL saw after seeing how many votes Duncan got was James Haren on that list.

From my Game Two breakdown:
Beli outplayed Durant on D. Let that sink in.Durant on Defense
Durant Post Screens Drives Pull-ups Break Threes
Amount 2 4 3 1 2 5
PPP 1 1.5 1.33 0 1 3
There’s no real way to sugarcoat this: Durant had an abysmal defensive game. As much as we rag on Beli for not being able to stop anyone, I’m not sure he could ever do this poor of a job. The Spurs attacked Durant in every way possible, and despite the headlines KD made about him stepping up on that end, he completely folded. What’s most sad is that Durant wasn’t even put in bad match-ups very often. The only big Durant guarded was Diaw, and Boris missed two free throws in two post-up attempts.
Durant was absolutely powerless to stop Parker’s penetration, not even being able to use his length to obstruct. I consider that sort of inexcusable, but I understand people wanting to give KD a break for that. The thing is, calling Parker and Diaw understandable mismatches only explains 5/16 possession, and 7/29 points Durant gave up. The rest came from players at his own position, Leonard and Ginobili and especially Green. It was kind of disturbing to see any player get picked on so much, actually. I know it was the team’s plan to make Durant work at both ends, but I doubt they’d ever imagine that KD would give up twice as many points as he scored.
