Beat writers for the Raps, C’s and Wizards have a quick roundtable on the division. Some notable portions:
– Biggest division surprises – >!Knicks swept all 3 writers, with Brunson + Quickley getting the most recognition as individuals and one writer noting that in this year’s NBA GM survey the Knicks weren’t in the top 6!<
– “All-Atlantic” team – >!Brunson made all 3’s list, Randle and Quick got nods for a potential second team; Randle was most difficult omission for 2 out of 3!<
– Division MVP – >!Brunson finished 3rd for all 3 behind Embiid and Tatum!<
– Division Coach of the Year – >!Thibs 2 out of 3 !<

I doubt Thibs get coach of the year again but I think Randle 2nd team all nba. Name 4 forwards better then him. Besides Giannis and Tatum. I can’t see anyone else. Even if you want to legacy vote Lebron and KD. Still can’t name two more forwards having a better season.
Brunson should win MiP will he I don’t know. Depends on what the media spin is. But he has defied all expectations. Can he make all nba I doubt it. Curry Luka Ja Fox Kyrie Spida seem like the ones who will get the nods.
Iq is gaining steam as 6MoY and rightly so. He’s so impactful off the bench and then he’s always ready to step up when needed because of injury.
The turn around for Thibs and Randle and the franchise from last year to this year is nothing short of amazing
