So what happened here? Did Furkan and Paul vote for each other? Probably got a good laugh out of that. Maybe Troel Embiid voted for one of them. Wouldn’t put it past him.
Maybe we need to take the voting away from the fans, media, AND the players. Maybe we just let the coaches do all of the voting. Head coaches get three votes, assistant coaches get two votes, and developmental/video guys get one vote. Seems more logical than using the current system.
