Flagg is the better player and SHOULD win ROY

The majority of Knueppel‘s points come from uncontested three pointers
Flagg still averaging more pts, ren, assists, steals

But everything I see and read it seems voters are hell-bent on giving the award to Kon

I dunno maybe the majority has a vendetta against Dallas & Cooper for landing that number one lottery pick after the Luka trade

Looks & sounds like Knueppel is going to win this

Some voters going with Kon saying whatever happens in last 2 games doesn't even matter to them

Kon has been really good but he's a spot up shooter with lots of help around him, while Flagg is a one man army doing it all

Team record has never mattered in the past not sure why this is a new thing amongst voters...

The odds have flip flopped again after Cooper flagg went toe to toe with Wemby last night for 3qtrs before the Spurs pulled away

Meanwhil Knueppel had another rough night

Never seen a race & odds like this flip back & forth so much

Going into last couple of games knueppel was heavy Fave

Then he stunk it up last game & Flagg was suddenly the leader

But cooper got hurt in final game & odds flipped again Live and Kon was the big favorite after regular season finale

Awards ballots were supposed to have been submitted

But Luka challenged the league on his status so it held up the voting process

That meant everyone would get to see knueppel perform against Miami in the Play-In game

Although that matchup should have been meaningless & never have been seen, how do voters unsee & not get swayed by Kon’s horrible performance & even getting benched end of game??

That totally flip-flopped the odds yet again even though that game shouldn’t have ever mattered….

It was the worst case scenario for knueppel…
