lol nikkas that actually believe Draymond is anywhere near GOAT defender talks. Reminds me of when Richard Sherman was getting those talks in NFL by some

this nikka lucky he wasnt in the 90s to mid 2000s era and had to go up against Duncan, DRob, Hakeem, KG, Sheed, Zo, Deke, Ewing, Shaq, Buck, Big Ben, Cliff, Ho Grant, Rodman, Oakley, Mason etc. basically every other night. Breh would be praying to play as a wing and be out the league not having the skillset for it

Myles Turner erased him when it mattered down the stretch and was the dominant defender this game

At the end of the season, I think the top 6 MVP candidates will be (in no order)

* Embiid
* Jokic
* Curry
* Doncic
* Durant
* LeBron

* Voters will not give Giannis the award a 3rd consecutive season, so I excluded him from my list.

* I think Tatum/Brown are going to cancel one another out.

* AD will miss enough games to put Lebron in the running (He's already missed 2 gms)

* Durant, Jokic, and Doncic will more than likely put up better overall numbers than LeBron, but if the Lakers get the #1 seed and win 8-10 more gms than the Nets/Nuggets/Mavs, I can see the voters giving the award to Lebron or Embiid if Philly finishes top 2 in the East.

Sidenote: In the last 32 years every MVP winner's team finished with a top 2 record within the conference...The only exception is R.Westbrook (finished 6th in the west, 10th overall)

This is bad offense more than good defense. Overpassing in close quarters (and late on the timing), and the best scorer didn’t even touch the ball. If the pass goes to Sabonis it’s an and-1
