Payton Pritchard will win sixth Man of the Yr (and different NBA Reacts predictions)

Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of followers throughout the NBA. All year long we ask questions of essentially the most plugged-in Boston Celtics followers and followers throughout the nation. Enroll right here to take part within the weekly emailed surveys. Outcomes courtesy of FanDuel.

Followers had been polled on the NBA Awards and you’ll find the outcomes under (together with my completely neutral, unbiased opinions).

Shai leads the league in factors and is the driving drive behind the Thunder competing for the league’s finest file. Jokic is, effectively, Jokic. And a few would argue that he deserves the MVP once more, however Shai is the brand new, shiny object of individuals’s affection so he’ll in all probability find yourself getting it.

I feel Tatum is correctly slotted at #3 although I feel a few of what he does is undervalued (protection, playmaking, typically letting different gamers prepare dinner when that results in successful). He in all probability would have had a stronger case if the Celtics had been main the East.

I assume he’ll simply must set his sights on the Finals MVP, if he can beat out his teammate for it this time.

The longer term is shiny in San Antonio, although Wemby’s blood-clot situation is horrifying.

This ballot was carried out earlier than information broke about Wemby’s situation. Now he received’t hit the minimal video games threshold, so I’d think about this award goes to JJJ.

Luke Kornet was robbed.

Amen has had an awesome season and looks as if an affordable contender for this award. That stated, I feel this has been Payton’s award for the reason that first week of the season. Give that man his {hardware}.
