Seeing Kuzma in the first team is a little weird

I’m fairly certain the game looks at totals, whereas we often look at per-game averages when accounting for awards. So if you rested guys at any point or if they got some minor injuries and sat out a few games, it’s going to hurt them in the awards.

I wouldn’t take the game generated awards to heart. It’s just fun to look at and chat about.

Lol yeah, no way Kuzma should be all league first team lol.

This possibly explains Bagley in all-league 2nd team as he played in all 82

Weird that they would do it for end of year awards but not for the all star game. Kevin Knox was voted into the game having played 2 games

Well a lot about DDS3 is weird, so that's not saying much

Honestly, it's just an educated guess on my part, based on what I've observed over the years. I'm not saying that is definitively how it is. But some of these awards would be pretty odd if that weren't the case.

I know, but even then it’s weird haha

The end finally came for Blake. John Collins is the only Cav on any list but we still coulda easily pulled off 50 wins without missing Dipo for 2 months. They nailed MVP though. Simmons or Fox imo

Congrats to Deyonta Davis

Hey, we'll take Dozier on the All-League 2nd team

Jackson and fultz made the rookie teams
