I'm hoping getting 2nd team and not 1st motivates him even more this summer! Need that young core to come back with a vengeance.

| Congrats D'lo I always thought that he was more first team but whatever. I mean to me he had good stats and apparently was close to Devin Booker. |

Can't wait to see what this kid is capable of with some real coaching.

| If Byron hadn't been farting around with the lineup, I have little doubt that Russell would've made 1st team. |

I'm just happy he didn't get completely snubbed. Kobe also made all rookie 2nd team, so that's something he can use as inspiration to get better.

| Not hating on Kobe but if it was t for the farewell tour and Kobe being the number 1 option I think DLO would've made first team. BS screwed him over as well. Next year we'll get a better idea of what DLO will be. |

I agree, he can use it towards motivation, but Kobe didn't really get any playing time when he was a rookie in comparison to D Russ. That's not a good look for d'angelo if you wanna compare him to Kobe, from that standpoint. |

So Jokic is this year's Clarkson, then.

Even coaching wasn't as bad as not playing. 26 minutes a game is for Tim Duncan in year 19, not a 19 year old PG who you picked 2nd overall who can distribute and score regularly. Then not starting him when your option was Lou (bleep) Williams or Huertas? Just stupid.

LOL I had a feeling a comment like this was imminent.

Would have had 40+ against the Pelicans if Byron gave him Devin Booker minutes. |

| He got the 4th most overall votes. If it wasn't for the incident, I think some of those 2nd votes turn into 1st votes and he makes first team. |
