2021-2022 NBA Season

There is no doubt you are biased against Embiid.

DeRozan over Jokic is a bit of a head scratcher though for you. DeRozan has a lot more help than Jokic or Embiid. Really not close. At least until Harden arrives in Philly.

I just think Jokic set his precedent last year. And knowing how fans today frown upon Nash’s back-to-back MVP’s from back in the day (large market frontrunners as those people are), I think it will ultimately be enough to sway voters away from Jokic this year.

DeMar DeRozan is my MVP pick. There, I said it.

The only other guy that has a case is Ja Morant IMO.

Embiid laughs at your nonsense

Not gonna lie, Sixers have looked bad since the trade. They miss Curry and Drummond.

Depth matters

TBH I didn’t realize he even played the other night given the Celtics beat them by 48.

Maybe I’m biased with Chicago being my nearest NBA city, but I’m just not in favor of rewarding perpetual whiners like Embiid, no matter how talented or successful.

You call him a whiner because ever since he has come into the league he’s run a train on your squad’s Bigs who need to hack him to handle him.

They are up, 69-61.

Hope Millsap is able to stick with them the rest of the season.

They are up, 69-61.

When I posted that they were struggling. Then they ran everything through Embiid and Maxey and had a huge run.

I know those guys can play! Still concerned about the depth though. I don't think Millsap is it at backup C. If it is not Paul Reed they may want to try Charles Bassey who is a pretty talented rookie, but more of an old school defensive center.

Perhaps more importantly, this team needs to run the offense through Embiid, Harden and Maxey, in that order. Tobias Harris is trash and they need to treat him as a nonfactor after the break in terms of the called plays, even if he has a large contract.

That is why I think Embiid will get it.

If it is close, benefit of the doubt goes to the player who hasn’t won it.

It is very close between Embiid and Jokic.

DeRozan just not on that level as a candidate.

Spo continuing to force feed jimmy at the end of game is so stupid. Give lowry or tyler a chance

Double OT in the Queen City.

Heat 97
Hornets 97

Jokic is getting plenty of respect. He is right there in the thick of the race. What more do you want? Bs excuses, if he wins it he earns it. If he doesn’t Embiid or another player just played better

 

[bksballer89]

Yep no surprise and i doubt he is back in 4 weeks. We are looking at late March if you ask me

 

[bksballer89]

Double OT in the Queen City.

Heat 97
Hornets 97

Horrible basketball game. 3 hours i wish i had back

Double OT in the Queen City.

I thought Cincinnati claimed to be the Queen City.

Oy...

Need to start talking Luka more in the MVP race.

My top 5 if the season end today is the following:

1) Embiid
2) Jokic
3) Giannis
4) Luka
5) DeRozan/Ja

 

[bksballer89]

45 or more in 3 of his last 4 games

If Luka gets that Mavs team a top 4 seed then he is a top 3 candidate

 

[bksballer89]

I have no idea how the Heat won that game but they did it. Top 5 win of the season.

Had no business winning that game
