Great result for Anthony Davis I knew he wouldn't win but he has definitely took his game to another level this year.

I found it amusing that Lebron received a 2nd placed vote...

Patty just beat Delly in the Beastmode Hoops.com.au forum award.

My 1st place vote for Bogut was mocked by other posters.

One guy mixed up his MIP & MVP votes, explaining the LBJ vote!

I love that the votes aren't anonymous anymore.

The Warriors guy going Bogut 1st Iggy 2nd in DPOY was good (although I thought Bogut should have got more votes).

The Suns guy who gave PJ Tucker a 1st place vote was even better.

Dragic is a deserved winner.

Whilst browsing nba.com, I found some surprising info. Have a look at this page:

http://www.basketball-reference.com/leagues/NBA_2014_leaders.html

Some surprising stats for pattyfans:

Mills is 9th in 3pt percentage (equal with Curry)
Mills is 10th in effective field goal percentage (equal with Curry)
Mills is 20th in win shares per 48mins

I found this surprising and impressive.

Lance seemed to be a lock for this early on, but then obviously he and the Pacers started stinking so he was out.

Anthony Davis was a first overall pick. You expect him to take a big leap each of his first few years. That loses lots of votes.

Dragic was the only pick left for me. He had such an amazing year and has become pretty much the most fearless guard at attacking the rim in the entire league.
