How was that close? All but 2 voted that Luka should be the rookie of the year. And all but 3 voted that Trae Young should be the first runner up... How is that close? Luka was almost unanimous Rookie of the Year. The writing is so out of wack here to give you the image that this was a close one... It was not. And it is like you get 10 points for 1st place vote and 7 for second or something like that... 98x10 + 2x7 = 994 for Luka... 3x10 + 97x7 = 709 for Trae...
Not a close one... I calculated so that they were 1 and 2 on every ballot. There is little room to maneuver here, but those are good ball park numbers... The unknown 2 and 3 votes don't change anything.
