I’ve never heard of Xavier Simpson, but he is 6’ tall and he just scored on a sky hook. I’m not kidding lmao

I mean that case is open and shut. MVP is a debate because of the nebulous nature of that award. There is absolutely no question that Embiid is a better player than Jokic. Zero. The conversation ends when we go to the defensive end of the court. There are tons of things Embiid can do on that end that Jokic will never be able to do. His game against the Sixers was eye opening. I was fucking embarrassed for him. Malone refused to allow him to cover Embiid. This is a guy who comes into the game with the world looking at an MVP race and his coach wouldn’t even let him attempt to cover Embiid. The conversation ends when we talk about defense.
You're being a homer. Jokic is the mvp this year. QQ.

Bulls need to win tonight at home to have any confidence going into the playoffs at all

The reason Embiid is so disliked is because he's got too much a "look at me" mindset and personality. He may or may not win MVP this year, but that doesn't change the fact that he's got the maturity level of a prima donna.

And…the Sixers gave up a 40 pt 3Q to garbage. This defense regularly disgusts me.

-7 in 7 minutes now.
Embiid is a +16.
-10 in 9 minutes to one of the worst 5 positions in the league?!?!? How is this dude this horrible? It’s not like he’s 37 or 38? He is walking trash.

Haha thank God! He was given a flagrant 2. That means I don’t have to see him the rest of the night.

It’s not over yet but I still have Embiid as well
Not that I give a crap about it....and I know it'll never happen, but wouldn't it be awesome if it ended in a 3, 4 or even a 5 way tie??

Joel,Giannis,Joker,Booker,Ja?
KD would be so pissed after he got named "honorable mention" that he'd go full looney tunes on twitter.....LOL


The entire thing has become a damn parody of itself anyway at this point.

Finished -11 in 9 minutes.

Just baffling why Doc won't give Reed/Bassey a shot.
Can they possibly be worse?

Morey has to cut him at this point. It’s literally the only way Doc won’t play him.
I'm convinced he would go right to Millsap.

At this point, I'm thinking Dawn Staley might be a better choice.
I'd even consider Duce Staley.....
