    Good to see we are well represented. Coach Dantoni should be on that list though imo.

    I think you're going 6 for 6. i agree on all.

    Hoping Mitchell gets ROTY and Stevens COTY though (and obviously all our guys their awards).

    They sure are taking their time to announce the winners. Are they planning to reveal the winners on the actual awards night?

    Is Embiid that good defensively? No Boston players? No Hou/GSW players?

    I guess he won Coach of the Year voted by his peers.

    This one is voted by the Media. Different award.

    Yep, and actually, since the awards are for the regular season, it's probably a bit more fair to give it to Simmons, i should really change that even though i like Mitchell a lot, i'd say more than Simmons.
