Media around the nation took notice of Chris Paul’s impact on the Oklahoma City Thunder.
The point guard finished seventh in MVP voting, was named to the All-NBA Second Team and received some All-Defensive votes.
After the NBA released its ballots, we’ve put together a list of those who included Paul on the MVP and All-Defensive ballots.
He had 87 All-NBA votes; it would be more notable to add the voters who did not have him on the ballot than those who did, so we excluded that award column. The full list can be found here, for those who are interested.
Here’s the list of voters who put Paul on their MVP list:
- Greg Antony, Turner: 3rd place
