Nice DPOY choice there @Hornso

and I was trying hard to find reasons to not give Banchero ROY cause I’m not a fan but his case is too strong

Funny how Giannis has 75% of the vote on here but from what I’ve been listening to seems to be 3rd in the running.

agree! I’ve listened to 4 or 5 podcasts where he is put 3rd and then they only debate between Embiid and Jokic but I’m like nah - this guy has his team at almost 60 wins and is dominating I’ll take him

Couldn’t agree more. Was missing his 2nd/3rd guy in Middleton for much of it too.

I could easily go SGA too, just Markkanen seemed to come from nowhere. Thought his career was going to be forgettable.

Of course always a chance to put up empty stats on a poor team but then they were surprisingly in playoff contention nearly all season.

The latter applies to SGA also. Both teams had surprisingly good seasons, perhaps great in OKC’s case, but it always seemed like SGA had this leap in him.

I think you's might be right with JJJ DPOY but they're gonna try and say he didn't play enough games/minutes.

I think Lopez was the leader for DPOY but maybe got overtaken at the end of the season. Possibly by Evan Mobley.
