I voted for Joe for many of the reasons others said above, but think a lot of folks had great performances this year and want to shout them out.

Jesse went from a lotto team to nearly winning our division, with a collection of some of the most random guys you've ever seen. Thought Jesse did great with almost all of his deals, especially the Boban acquisition.

Nick I guess overpayed for Lou Williams based on what he was on the market for a year ago, but who cares, he was a great fit and still really awesome, and well worth the cost. Similarly to the Kings, this was not a roster that I thought would be playoff bound, but Nick made it work with some creative DCs and the largest collection of PG eligible guys in the league.

GX made a ton of win now moves that again almost universally worked out, and he clearly deserves credit for coaxing Kyrie into behaving like a good teammate for the first time in his career.

Heimer has built an absolute wagon. Kevin Durant is so far and away the best player in the league, this team rocks.

Tong deserve some more recognition for making Jahlil Okafor a useful player, and snagging Bridges / Herro / Fox. This is a fun and weird team and Tong adds a ton of value year after year.

I think Jeremy did great trading for LeBron and trading away Boogie. He picked up a ton of interesting useful young guys I hope to see poached in FA.

Otto was expensive but a really nice fit for Derek - think the Bucks are primed to have a great year next season.

Merv did a nice job building around his core, filling out a front court rotation, and spotting and drafting Jordan Poole - already a positive player - in the second round.

I voted for Joe because he’s a handsome bastard (and also liked his moves)

GX had all in all a great and surely exciting season. the kyrie acquisition was amazing to see and a huge splash that changed the course of the franchise. love to see it. after their tough start kyries stip lifted the franchise to dominance (would love to know what that was ashes). the big head scratcher was tyler herro getting kicked out of town like he just banged an executives wife Udoka style which is a big negative for me.

Joe acquired some FAs this year and had a decision to make. his team was literal ass. they smelled as if a possum died in their locker room/ backyard and rot for several days. he gave up a lot but he gave it up for the right guys. was truly the best team in the league not named the atlanta hawks ;). that’s an incredible feat from the stink sack of shit they were a season prior. hit the nail on the head with bledsoe / whiteside and good ole DD. developed taurean prince and has Ja morant waiting in the wings. this team is set up for sustained success so long as their contracts are in order. my vote goes to joe
Welcome to Atlanta where the playas play
And we ride on dem thangs like ev-ery day
Big beats, hit streets, see gangstahs roamin'
And parties don't stop 'til eight in the Monin
