    NEW YORK (AP)—LeBron James(notes) and Dwight Howard(notes) were unanimous choices for the All-NBA Team, while Kobe Bryant(notes) received 119 of 122 votes from writers and broadcasters.

    James was a unanimous pick for the second straight season and made his fourth all-NBA Team. The Cleveland star won the MVP award for the second year in a row.

    Kevin Durant(notes) and Dwyane Wade(notes) completed the first team Thursday. Durant led the NBA in scoring for Oklahoma City with a 30.1 average, and James was second at 29.7. Howard led the league in rebounding with a 13.2 average and also averaged 18.3 points.

    Carmelo Anthony(notes), Dirk Nowitzki(notes) of Germany, Amare Stoudemire, Steve Nash(notes) and Deron Williams(notes) were selected to the second team. Tim Duncan(notes), Spain’s Pau Gasol(notes), Andrew Bogut(notes) of Australia, Joe Johnson(notes) and Brandon Roy(notes) were third-team picks.


    Congratulations to Andrew Bogut for becoming the first Australian to be voted in the All NBA Team.

      Andrew Bogut's rise ...

      It was the breakout year of "The Thunder from Down Under", which nobody saw coming. He uplifted his game both offensively and defensively, guided the young squad and most importantly played on a consistent level. Though he was not selected to the Eastern Conference All Star team, the Bucks came out on top as they reached the playoffs.
      Two major factors that contributed to the Aussie's rise to All NBA selection has to be credited to Coach Skiles in shifting the offense to focus on Bogut and then to the perimeter. Secondly, the oustanding play of Brandon Jennings and his vision to always try and find the Big Fella down low for the high percentage shot, something that former point guards of the Bucks: Mo Williams and Ramon Session failed to do, thus, not only hampering the efficiency and effectiveness of Bogut but a huge reason why the Bucks never got out of the Eastern Conference cellar - too much focus on the perimeter.

          Deron is not better than Wade. If Deron's going to replace anyone, it would be Kobe, who's pretty overrated at this point.

            Uhmmm, both Wade and Bryant deserved it. If we are talking about point guards, yes Deron is arguably numero uno in that position. BUT the All-NBA team doesn't differentiate the SG from the PG and just fill it in with the best in the G position. So yeah, Bryant and Wade it is.
            If there is no basketball in heaven, i am NOT going.

              Kobe is definitely past his prime. LeBron has taken over as the best player in the NBA. This season has definitely demonstrated that LeBron is "The King".
