We had a total of 3 foulers crack the 2000 point mark this season: Karl-Anthony Towns,  Russell Westbrook, and Jae-Sean Tate. Also, KAT's 2515 is up there for single-season record. Patrick Beverley scored 2525 in 2018-19, while DeMarcus Cousins scored 2730 in 2016-17. Cousins also scored 2865 in 2012-13 season. Also, Cousins scored 3120 points in 2010-11

MVF Scoring Records:

1. DeMarcus Cousins: 3120 Points (2010-11)

2. DeMarcus Cousins: 2865 Points (2012-13)

3. DeMarcus Cousins: 2730 Points (2016-17)

4. Patrick Beverley: 2525 Points (2018-19)

5. Karl-Anthony Towns: 2515 Points: (2021-22)

6. Markieff Morris: 2505 Points (2014-15)

7. DeMarcus Cousins: 2380 Points (2015-16)

8. DeMarcus Cousins: 2345 Points (2011-12)

9. DeMarcus Cousins: 2330 Points (2013-14)

10. Dwight Howard: 2265 Points (2017-18) 

11. Dillon Brooks: 2270 Points (2019-20)

12. Dwight Howard: 2220 Points (2020-21)

Those are all the scoring record for each year of the NFA going back to Season 2 in 2010-11 when I started the awards. You can clearly see Cousins' dominance in the league owning the top 3 records plus 7,8, and 9. Also of note, even in the pandemic shortened season (2019-20 and 2020-21) the MVF scored a respectable amount of points cracking the 2200 mark. I would doubt we will ever see someone crack 3000 points again, but you never know.

So that wraps up another season of the National Foul Association, Season 13 to be exact. I hope you had fun reading the blog this year and can't wait to start it up again in like 6 months. 

Well that's it for now.

Keep Foulin' Y'all!

Arlington Assaulters actually finished in 2nd in this metric, while PFC finished 3rd.  Oww Ming came in 4th with Baltimore coming in 5th. Gamblor finished in 6th with Rodman finished in 7th. 

NFA Titles:

Pgastan FC (Formerly Donkey Engine and Steam Donkey FC) 4 - 2009-2010, 2012-2013, 2018-2019, 2019-2020

GG Foulin' 3 - 2016-2017 and 2020-2021, 2021-2022

Rodman'sWeddingDress 3 -  2010-2011, 2011-2012, 2014-2015

Arlington Assaulters 2 - 2013-2014 and 2015-2016

Oww Ming's Flagrants 1 - 2017-2018

 

GG Foulin' gets their 3rd title, finally tying Rodman'sWeddingDress who did have the most titles for a few years after their title in 2014-15. This is the 4th straight year that the top 3 consisted Pgastan FC, GG Foulin' and Oww Ming's Flagrants. We have to go back to 2017-18 to see a different top 3 in which it was Oww Ming, PFC, and AA (GG Foulin' did not play that year). GG Foulin's first year of 2016-17 saw him win it followed by AA and Oww Ming. Can another team breakup the Big 3? We'll see what next year has in store. 

Final Points Graph:

 

Tier 5: F'N FLOPPERS

Tier 4: Ohsnappers!!!

Tier 3: Baltimore Hitsquad, Gamblor

Tier 2: Oww Ming's Flagrants, Arlington Assaulters, Rodman'sWeddingDress

Tier 1: GG Foulin', Pgastan FC

 

Tiers stayed the same as last week and there were some bigger gaps within a few tiers of around 500 points but I decided to keep them the same as oppose to splitting them up. The tiers were pretty well established in the final weeks of the season and really since like at least week 12 by the graph. 

Check back in the next few days for the End of the Season Donkies.

 

Well that's it for now.

 

Keep Foulin' Y'all!
