2019-2020 Official Regular Season Thread

Outside of the year when Rose won MVP, when else do you think Lebron was robbed of MVP?

Problem for Lebron, during his most recent Cavs stint is that the club wasn't good enough in the regular season to really give it to Lebron. They only had one great regular season and that was the year the Warriors won 73 games so no way could they give it to Lebron.

Probably Curry's first one

Lebron final year in Cleveland was great (27,9, & 9) but you're rarely going to give the MVP to a player on a 50-32 when Harden put up the numbers he did on a 65 win team.

Hard to give the MVP to a guy on a 53 win over the guy on a 67 win team....also at that time, I think most would have said LBJ, KYRIE, and LOVE> Steph, Klay, and Draymond.

Cavs were the favorites entering the season and O/U was about 59 wins.

Warriors O/U entering that year was 50 or 51.

People also forget the massive chemistry issues that Cleveland team was facing.

Point is, everyone knew he was the best player. He didn’t win because the Cavs sleepwalked through the regular season. Now he is on a team that is “good enough” and he still won’t win.

Just saying, just like MJ should have won every year, so should LeBron have in his prime. I think he should have won finals MVP in 2015 in a losing effort too. Would anyone really rather have Curry in 2014-2015 than LeBron?

Sucks but Giannis and the Bucks been out of this world......except for when they face the Heat

Reality is Lebron's team sleepwalking/chemistry issues through the year cost him at least 2 MVP's.

The biggest robbery of him not getting the MVP will always be that 2011 season when they gave it to Rose over him. Miami finished close enough to Chicago and Rose numbers wasn't anything special. He was just the best player on the best regular season team

Heat 2-0 vs the Bucks this season.

And Miami was missing key players in both games

 

[bksballer89]

If the Heat compete with the Bucks two weeks from now in Milwaukee, I may actually look forward to a possible 2nd round match up with this team

Heat gaining a little breathing room on Philly/Indy for HCA.

2 game edge in the loss column.

Lakers should beat Philly tomorrow to extend that to 3 which is really more like 4 because Philly can't end up with the same record as Miami due to the H2H record

Hey, I totally would vote for Giannis if I had a vote, and I don’t think it is that close.

Just trying to read between the lines of Gentry’s comment.

The standings right now is what I want the first round in the East to look like. I don't care about the 1/8 & 2/7 match ups because Brooklyn and Orlando are bad teams but Miami/Indy and Boston/Philly is what I want to see in the 3/6 and 4/5 match ups.
