I've changed my mind
Going with Luka for MVP
He's having a historic season and the team has really been on fire since they actually got some competent frontcourt players
He's somehow become weirdly underrated. I don't know how that's possible for a guy averaging 33.9/9.2/9.8 on great shooting but it's true. That's a 2K stat line. :mindblown:

I've got Shae. It's actually blowing my mind that he's not close to being the favorite. In most years a player putting up the stats he is, leading a team to a top 3record when no one expected the team to be anything but average while also having no other all-star players would be a lock. He has the stats, the team success and the narrative.

How can anyone watch this trash? It’s WWE status at this point.

I mentioned it before, there’s so many great players who are top-20 all timers talent-wise (a number of them top 10) squeezed in the same era that they start cannabalizing each other’s greatness. Only so many mvps and all-NBAs that can be rewarded.

Remember, great as Luka, SGA, and Jokic have been… at one point Embiid was the hands down mvp ish’ing on all of them.

I like what Orlando's doing, they got a shot to be the 2 seed in the East this year.... I agree they need shooters but a 35 year old Klay making max money(you're gonna have to give him the max) is not it

If Orlando needs a shooter they should go for kispert in a trade with wizards. Klay will probably prioritize being somewhere near water that's warm. I can see him being a laker, a heat player, magic player

I noticed it a while ago. Media had zero interest in giving it to Shai. Once Embiid got injured it’s always been Jokic/Luka/Giannis

The media has been trying to gift wrap it to Luka for a few years now but the team record hasn’t been good enough.
