    Should have been unanimous. He's the only guy that even came close to being ROTY-worthy.

    Yeah, once Rubio went down, there couldn't even be some half-ass argument.

    Faried and Shumpert? Are you kidding me? Two role players? One of whom is on a team where he's the 5th offensive option?

    Don't think there was a doubt from the start he would win the award, even as good as Rubio was playing...
    Parsons should have finished higher than he did
