Point is, Sewell did the same thing ALL YEAR against the best in the state. Justice had a good sweet 16 against the less competitive bottom bracket and wins the award.

I'm willing to bet that had the voting been done before the sweet 16, Sewell gets the award. Look at how many sweet 16 tourney mvp's (seniors) have won Mr. Basketball over the years and then compare it to how many votes they received for first team all state. You'll be surprised...which goes in to my whole theory that politics are a major factor of who wins Mr. Basketball.

But what did that do for him come state tournament time? Zero because he wasn't there.
