			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Kevin Durant was named to the 2011-12 All-NBA First Team today along with LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, Chris Paul and Dwight Howard.</p>
<p>Durant has now been on the All-NBA First Team for the past three seasons. Durant led the league averaging 28.0 points per game this season to go with 8.0 rebounds. He also had a career-high .610 true shooting percentage this year as well as tying his career-high with a 26.2 PER.</p>
<p>Durant received 117 First Team votes, just one less than LeBron who had more than anyone. There were a possible 120 votes so a few people who voted don&#8217;t watch basketball and didn&#8217;t think LeBron or Durant deserved to be on the First Team.</p>
<p>Russell Westbrook made the Second Team with Tony Parker, Kevin Love, Blake Griffin and Andrew Bynum.</p>
<p>Westbrook makes the Second Team for the second straight season. Westbrook would have been available for the &#8220;Rose Rule&#8221; salary bump because he made an All-NBA team but he waived it in his extension.</p>
<p>Westbrook averaged a career-high 23.6 points per game this season but his assists per game dropped to 5.5 from 8.2 a season ago. He did shoot a career-high .457 percent from the field this year.</p>
<p>Westbrook finished the voting with just one more point than Wade who made the Third Team. Westbrook also had five First Team votes while wade had just one.</p>
<p>The All-NBA Third Team consists of Dwyane Wade, Carmelo Anthony, Dirk Nowitzki, Rajon Rondo and Tyson Chandler.</p>
<p>Here is how the voting went:</p>
