I think the games played criteria makes the award favor a guy like Tatum, who basically never misses games

I must be missing something cause I feel like Anthony Edwards is the most overhyped player in some time.
His 5 game playoff thooooo
/s
If he's even half as good as the media(and r/nba) says he is there's zero excuse if the Wolves aren't at minimum a top 6 seed
This sub will just blame KAT or Gobert if they aren’t lol
That’s starting lineup is atrocious, but Ant should get them there (but not much further)
I mean this is a list of 15 players, it’s not like they’ve done a top 5 and he’s there.
it's a marketing thing. we are sore lacking in young american stars who arent injured all the time or waving guns in social media
what is Sabonis' name doing on this list lol
tell me you didnt watch a kings game last year outside of the playoffs without actually saying it lol
he was 7th in the voting last year for a reason and he probably isnt playing 2/3rds of the season with a broken thumb this year
15?? lmao
If the Mavs are a top 4 seed, it will probably be Luka. Especially considering a lot of NBA analysts barely see the Mavs as a play-in team, let alone playoff team and a lot of people don’t think the Luka/Kyrie duo will pan out either.
But I would say Jokic, Tatum, or Giannis have the best chance as of now.
The toxicity the MVP ladder creates is the real MVP.
It’s jokic’s award to lose tbh, insane counting stats and the nuggets are a lock to finish top 2 in the west doesn’t anybody else matching that
As we've seen last year you can have worse counting stats, worse advanced stats, worse record than Jokic and still win so....
Worse counting stats?
I always forget that 99% of discourse about the NBA regular season is this goddamn award
No Jimbo , every year the same shit lol
Emo Jimbo for JiMVP
AD and Lebron got as much a chance of winning MVP as I have of making the NBA
