1970-71 NBA & ABA Awards Voting

1955-56 through 1979-1980: Voting was done by players. Players were not permitted to vote for their teammates, so it was impossible to be a unanimous winner.
1980-81 to present: Voting conducted by media.

Voting tallies for seasons 1965-66, 1966-67, 1967-68, 1968-69, 1970-71, and 1978-79 are incomplete.
