Well deserved, fuck the doubters. The dude was unreal a lot of times during the season and had crazy numbers all around a bunch of times.
Missed the Playoffs? Yes.
Does he deserve it? very big YES.
Just FFS – get some better players to surround him with, Kyrie or not, this summer is pivotal.
we won
Really happy he wasn’t punished for the FO fucking up this past summer.
Lol I can’t wait for r/nba to freak out
yeah idk what people say about team record. Look at what jalen brunson is doing in NY. We lost that guy for NOTHING and tried to replace his production with christian wood.
The streak is still alive for our Pillsbury doughboy. Hehe!
I really thought it was a lock for SGA and Mitchell for the guards position after seeing those partial votes results.
THE STREAK CONTINUES BITCHES!!
ITS A HUGE W IN MY CITY YEAHH!
i agree the team record should count but he was by far so much better than the other players he still had to be first team, glad he got picked.
No one in their right mind thinks Mitchell is ever even close to Luka for example.
LFG. GOT SCARED THEY WERE GOING TO SCAM HIM
Feel bad for Donovan Mitchel. Everyone I saw was just assuming he’d be first team and then Luka v SGA would fight for the second spot. Turns out Luka and SGA make first.
Can’t complain, I think this year you had 4-5 gurads that were really good and any combination could have made first team. Luka and Steph had the highest peaks but both missed about 25 games. SGA and Luka put up great stats but both missed the playoffs. Fox and Mitchell had the healthiest seasons and best team success but weren’t quite on Luka/Steph’s level.
I gotta be honest, I’m not sure about that. Congrats tho lol
Good to see Luka still 1st team despite J Midd disaster class season, hopefully we get back on track and have Kyrie back on all nba next year
Good. Luka still had the best stats(ppg/apg/rpg) last season even though our team sucked. 32/8/8 needs to be rewarded with something
Luka down year is still 1st team all nba lol dude is certified baller
wait where is Jokic? they’re still going for positions so if Embiid is there, Jokic can’t? that’s stupid
4 in a row for the future GOAT
He deserves it
Dang I’m actually surprised. Thought he’d be punished for mavs season.
Yes thank god he had an unbelievable season. And we had so many fans disrespecting on this sub and keep disrespecting on this sub. We all need to really appreciate him seriously. Start holding the real folks that need to step up to be more accountable.
33 9 8 on 49% shooting is unreal and absurd. Proud of him 🙏 some great news from this subpar season
I’m surprised tbh. Especially after the discussion around whether Bron should make a team last year
