Melbourne United hand an award out to one of their employees.

Josh Giddey Rookie of the Year like duh obviously.

Melbourne invent an award and give it to themselves.

Fan's MVP is Bryce Cotton.

Just earning up before we sweep the Coach of the Year and MVP award.

Just warming up before we sweep the Coach of the Year and MVP award.*

About bloody time they gave COTY to Gleeson.

Gleeson wins Coach of the Year predictably.

Sam Froling Most Improved Player.

Cotton wins MVP, naturally.

Just here to read all the salty reactions to Wild Cats missing out on awards. So far so good, please keep it up.

Hungry Jack's rep confirms free burgers will continue next season. Happy days.

Melbourne invent an award and give it to themselves.

MVP: Bryce Cotton

Semi final MVP: Jock Landale

Grand Final MVP: ???

'Semi final MVP: Jock Landale'

Highly debatable. Blanchfield, Mooney and Hopson were better across 3 games, your bias is out of this world.

If Chris Reid is the best official we have, the league is in trouble. He is dreadful. I understand the pickings are slim but how he walked away with this award is baffling.

[Highly debatable. Blanchfield, Mooney and Hopson were better across 3 games, your bias is out of this world.]

Hopson had like a -22 or something in game 2! He was scoring but also being scored on

Landale ridiculously efficient and was MVP of his series by a magnitude of Landale then daylight, then more daylight, then more daylight, then whoever else

Blanchfield very good on the other side too, I'll admit

The case for Landale thought is based on him dragging United back from the dead by hitting 11 shots in a row in Game 3, after being unstoppable in game 1 also.

Game 2 be struggled even notwithstanding foul trouble but he was absolutely most influential in both United wins

Cotton has tied Loggins with 3 MVP's, equal 2nd after Gaze

Rose, Fisher, Anstey, Lisch won it twice

Thinking about Landale and Mooney, what stands out is their incredible shooting efficiency, both inside and outside.

That we have a pair of 5 men shooting the 3 ball that efficiently is a good example of the evolution of basketball.

They're genuine bigs who can post up too, both of them. They aren't guys who's preferred scoring method is 3's- like Barlow or Kickert.

They're legit big men who just have a 3 point shot in their arsenal and can hit at an efficient clip. Historically there haven't been players that efficient in the NBL.

I like these results, top to bottom.
Congrats to all the winners.










* except the dirty blind ref. Booooooooooooooooo!!!!!

How do the voting systems all work again?

Congrats to all award winners
Good to see Gleeson finally recognised.

All NBL first team, really picked itself. I'm sure most of us had that 5.

Second team is a bit iffy. Not sure how macaron makes it ahead of Machado??

I don't mind Simon getting the Damo ahead of Norton, but the voting seems out of whack.

semi final MVP - Landale - and it was no contest

Congratulations Giddey on rookie win.
Something for Adelaide to be happy about.

Why are the total votes so wildly different for each award?

There were more than three nominees for each award, and they're only releasing the top three vote-winners. There will be different distributions of votes for nominees four and down.

Surely Mooney was 4th in MVP voting then.

Who cares neither won

Yes, seems to be 3 voters per team.
That would give a total of 405 votes for MVP, with a maximum of 145 for one player.

The voting for All-NBL has me intrigued. Would seem to be only 2 Voters for that.
