Voter Who Put Kyrie Irving on All NBA 3rd Team Has Been Revealed

Kyrie Irving barely played this season, but yet somehow one voter decided that was enough.

The All-NBA voter ballots were revealed today. Jalen Rose’s ballots inexplicably contained a vote for Kyrie Irving on the All-NBA 3rd team. Kyrie literally only played in 29 games this year, that’s 29 out of 82 games. You can’t be one of the top players in the league, let alone one of the top 6 if you play less than 50% of games.

Twitter shared its thoughts:

Maybe Jalen Rose put Kyrie All-NBA Third team because he played a third of the games

Jalen Rose voting Kyrie Irving All NBA 3rd team might be the worst vote in NBA history.

Jalen Rose voted Kyrie 3rd team All-NBA. 29 games Kyrie. Part time player Kyrie. Ruined his team and alienated Harden Kyrie.

insane. https://t.co/PGvc9Kgr96

Kyrie played a total of 29 games. Giving him a 3rd Team All NBA vote is not just bad, it is inarguably one of the worst transgressions any voter has made in recent years and should be grounds for Jalen to lose his vote going forward.

Kevin Arnovitz of ESPN was the only voter who picked Fred VanVleet to his All-NBA Third-Team.

FYI Jalen Rose was that one guy who voted Kyrie Irving to Third Team

It’s hard to understand Jalen Rose’s vote, but he surely will have to explain himself.

The whole voting system is broken.
