Congrats Jalen! I think he should've made the first team but this is great for him and the future!

Kind of wack they put all the guards on the 2nd team. Not a fan of the position less voting.

Congrats Jalen!!!
All the forwards and Centers are on the first team and all the guards on the second. Lol. I’m getting the feeling that this will be dominated by centers and forwards in the near future.

Yeah, thats pretty stupid.
Bigs and Guards are vastly different kinds of players on defense. Not that I think Jalen would make the first team either way, but my god is it lame.
Anyway... This was expected! Congrats Suggs. You're a beast.

Well deserved Jalen, except he should be first team. A joke that Wemby made it in first team, even second team.

He's a top 10 defender in the NBA and being recognized as such. It's a huge honor/accomplishment.

First team next year for sure. Just putting the league on notice this year (small market, limited buzz). I've never seen anyone glide through picks the way he does.
My only complaint...I'd rather he didn't lay on the ground and wince after every foul call and limp right until the play resumes - at which point he makes a miraculous recovery. I'm not saying he's not tough - God knows, he is! I just saw TJ McConnell take a shot and bounce back up like an NFL WR trying to laugh off a big hit by an opposing safety. "You Can't Hurt Me Punk"
He's the football guy - act like it.

Congratulations to Jalen, maybe should be first, but competition is very stiff.
About Victor.
Victor had most games with 5 or more blocks by a rookie in past 30 years, he is first rookie to block 200 shots since TIm Duncan, he has more blocks after one year than 85% of a a league for career
Victor is one man defense, you see plays when 3 players refuse to dive into a rim in 1 on 3 transition to avoid him. Hopefully Spurs can put actually nba level talent around him on court in future year(s)...
it was just matter of will nba penalize him for having trash team for this or not, they figured guy can become one of most dominant players in history of a sport, so they pushed him to 1# team. I can't blame them.

So Magic has Jalen a load of cash this summer? Or next?

We can extend him this summer so it will kick in next year ( I think )
But as to that "kicker" do defensive teams awards also raise your salary %???

if the rules havent changed, he would have made it - he and caruso are the guards with most points.

I think the question now is who we do pair up with Jalen. He already locked that guard spot up whether it is 1 or 2. I am interested to this offseason. Gonna be fun

I get that, still wish they did a medium ground and allowed 3 frontcourt players at any position and 2 backcourt players at any position instead of positionless
