2022-2023 NBA Season Thread

Yep. Your answer is telling. It confirms exactly what I said. It’s the whim of no talent ass clowns with floating criteria that morphs from season to season.

That's not changing, so don't act surprised or put upon when they vote as they do.

Where?

ON MY BALLOT

 

[bksballer89]

Cool. How does that make you MVP of an entire league?

serious question, when do you plan on stop crying about this? We are approaching a year now

 

[fightinfunbags]

west isn't that bad. They just had a shitty run of injuries when you actually look at it instead of basing everything on standings.

Pels were a top 3 team before zion and ingram injuries.
Kawhi missed several games
AD and Bron missed several weeks
Curry missed several weeks

You look at the east and none of the top 5 had any real significant injuries

HEALTH MATTERS

Every single guy you mentioned is old or has a long injury history. That’s what happens in sports. It isn’t some Gordon Hayward bad luck anomaly all over the place. Broke Down Palace living in reputation.

You called them the best team in the league for being the tallest midget in a broke ass conference.

I said perhaps, as in they may end up with the best record. Man, when it comes to talking philly teams, your reading comprehension just goes flying out the door at the speed of light.

You don’t get one. You’re not a middle aged fat ass that maxed out on the JV soccer team in life.

Even “perhaps” doesn’t apply.

 

[Picklerick 2.0]

Even “perhaps” doesn’t apply.

Because you say so, but I didn't make up the English language and you flat out stated what I said incorrectly.

 

[shopson67]

Where?

Does he not fit the media's criteria that you loathe? He's a second tier Jokic, has his team up to the 2 seed in his first full season with the team after the Kings' playoff drought dating back to 2006.

I don’t even know what the media’s criteria is and neither do you. Nobody does. It’s floating criteria from year to year.

Here’s the MVP Ladder for whatever this is worth. This doesn’t have him top 5.

Never.

But also, safe flight, my guy.

 

[bksballer89]

Never.

How will you celebrate when embiid finally get one?

Randle over sabonis and SGA is a joke. I would still put Embiid over Tatum, but that's a personal opinion.

I agree. Kd over Sabonis is bad too due to the games he missed

He’s never getting one. They hate the dude. MVP? Bwahahaha. Fuck that. Let me see them put the man on 1st team NBA before we can even get to that next level.


I’ll repost what I posted last night when I couldn’t sleep because I was drunk and high.

Who do you have as best player to never win an MVP? Did a little work but not much. Came up with Jerry West, Alonzo Mourning, Pat Ewing, Vince Carter, Tracy McGrady all in the running.

Like when Philly made the SB....he was giving all reasons why they would beat KC....LOL

People are slaves to the moment. When Embiid shit on Joker head to head for 47 and 18 showing the world what we’ve all been saying about Joker can’t defend, Embiid was a top this list…until the Sixers next loss and he dropped back to third.

I like Sabonis a bunch and think he deserves mention. Here’s my top 5:
Giannis
Embiid
Tatum
Jokic (he’s not a 3 time back to back to back MVP for me)
Mitchell

Agree.
