Good for him.

Still extremely perplexing that we just can't get a winning team with that good of a player. And the GM that orchestrated the roster is still here.

Demarcus Cousins should have gotten 3rd team over Towns.

The fact that Gobert had more 1st place votes is an absolute joke.



AD was double the production offensively, literally. He was also much better efficiency wise. Gobert is the better rebounder/defender, but AD is no slouch there. Where as Gobert is average at best offensively and AD is elite. It shouldn't even be close for 1st team. KAT should be 2nd. I'd put Gobert 3rd, though you could actually make a case for Cousins.

Cousins should be over Green and Gobert at a minimum. It is some bull shite. He should probably be over the Greek Freak and Towns also.

Davis should be a no brainer First Team player.

AD was probably looked at as a forward by some of the voters. Next season, he'll probably be looked at as a forward by a lot of people, and will be in a battle to make second team All-NBA.

Butler over PG13. PG just lost a lot of money.

You may be homer. But at least have respect for other players.

Gobert, Green and Giannis had a WAAAY better season than DMC.
And also their teams had a much better records.

No brainer for me.

Cousins had 27 ppg/11 rpg/5 apg

He also shot good percentages across the board and got absolutely no slack from the refs.

He had a phenomenal season and that is not being a homer. I don't think you can hold it against him that the Kings suck as an organization. The Pels played well after a small adjustment period eventhough they made their roster unbalanced after the trade.

Green is by far the most overrated player in the league.

Hyperbole much?

Cousins is twice the player Gobert is offensively, Green as well.

Gobert made a big jump offensively this year. DMC is better than him in offense. Heck. He is better than any other big man in offense. When engaged...

This honors are for the season. Not for the potential. I was talking about it.
Gobert was a monster in defense. And thanks to him Utah had a great defense.

He played whole season. Lead his team to the PO.
It is hard to give great grades for a player who played for two bad franchises.

Wait and see how many All Nba votes he will get.

Green is little overrated. But if You think that Green and Gobert played worse then:
1. Start to watch other teams
2. Stop using your drugs
3. Maybe start using glasses?

Nothing personal but sometimes it is good to use advanced stats. Not only boxscore...

TBH. DMC is a victim of new NBA. Where AD and Green may be C at All Nba Voting.

If AD and Dray were counted as a PF only - he might be in 3rd All Nba race.

All this is about his last season.
With at least little defense he is the best pure center.

Hopefully we will see it next year

Cousins had a better PER than both Green and Gobert.

Cousins is absolutely a better player than both of them.

It is sick Green is even being mentioned. He plays as a role player with Durant, Curry, and Thompson. The dude is beyond overrated. He doesn't suck, but he has not done anything to deserve All-NBA.

Gobert is a great player too, but Cousins is definitely better and had a better individual season.

NBA awarded national writes a vote for All NBA. There are no longer local writers to vote.

Wait and see how many votes DMC will get. I agree that he is seen as a technical-foul machine etc
But still...

I am not debating who is the better player, but who has a better season. Better season means not only individual statistics, but also ADVANCED stats and TEAM success.

With all respect - PER is not a great statistics to say who is better and who is not. Jokic and Towns had better PER.

I don't agree with Green. He is a real player. Without him this team won't be as good as it is.

Let's leave it. You have Your point of view, I have mine.
Don't wanna put there advanced stats.
I see Your point - Boogie has a talent and potential. But first he has to show ability to play for a winning team. And have a winning team.

wow

this is YAYPOINTS disease to the extreme.

I would swap Cousins for Draymond instantly. I'd throw in an unprotected 1st whenever they want with Cousins to put Green next to Davis

DeMarcus Cousins has no business on All NBA this year. If anyone is a role player on that team, it is Thompson. He is great, great, great, but really a deluxe D and 3 guy.

I would veto that Cuz for Green trade. Green is clear front runner for Most Overrated. Every announcer worships the dude because he can make two dribbles and pass to one of three dudes that are top 15 player in the league for open shot. Put Green on any other team and he will be exposed.

I don't completely hate Green and think he has improved. Seems like someone I would like to have a cold beer with.... as long as he doesn't send me any snapchats.

I would do Boogie plus 1st rounder for Green

especially now when he has 3 years left (18,5 millions in 2020/21). DMC will get around 30 millions after next year.

AD-Green combo on defense.

Jesus Christ.

Science fiction. GSW will never do this.
