You would think brooks and Jalen would be on these teams the way clutchfans talk about them. Congrats to him
Yeah, Avdija and Scottie Barnes deserve it way more than those two. Both are two-way players who were the offensive engines of their playoff teams. Could also see Harden, he had a very nice bounceback season with his scoring efficiency and AST:TO.
I think people overlook his defense a bit--when he locks in he's actually very good. Although he did expend a lot more energy on offense this season, so he wasn't as consistent with it. I don't know how highly I rank Avdija moving forward in terms of expected value, but just thinking about his production this season, I feel like it was good enough to get on the 3rd team. IDK, I do feel like his best role is more of a #2 option, but it was a nice season from him.
