    @DanteKobayashi_ Před měsícem +16

    Shaq and Kenny are just either hating or clinically insane. How on Gods great earth do you have SGA over Luka and Luka as 2nd team?? 💀 SGA does more volume? Bro, without Luka that Mavs team never even is able to sniff or say the words “play in” cause they’d be that bad; especially before the trade deadline. You’re telling me, since acquiring Gafford and PJ, Luka has led the Mavs to a 21-7 record, got them OUT of the play in, and secured a either 5th or 4th seed and somehow he doesn’t contribute more “volume” than SGA?
    The only real MVP options are Luka and Jokić with both being correct answers but, I’d give it to Luka because he’s done more with less. If Luka had this squad to start the year off I PROMISE you he’s a top 3 seed with damn near being the 1 seed hands down no question. Injuries and lack of team size killed Lukas “team success” for the first half of the year and the second they filled the holes needed and stayed healthy they’ve been balling. Man about to get snubbed harder than Hero Boys ticket from Polar Express for a guy who just scores in SGA and THATS it.
    Luka:
    50 30PT games
    13 40PT games
    21 TRPL DBL games
    10 of those games were 30PT TRPL DBLs…
    So Shaq repeating that dumb point about SGAs 30PT games holds no meaning…Luka for MVP.

    All-NBA Teams should not be postionless imo, but if it was still the traditional 2 guards, 2 forwards, & a Center, I would choose Doncic & Shai as the 2 guards. Ant really has potential to be the next great SG under MJ, Kobe, & Wade, but I feel like he still has lots to improve on. He definitely took a step up this year, but there's still a lot of room for improvement. He still has a lot of nights where he struggles badly, scoring single digits only, inconsistencies, & shooting terribly. I'd like to see him take another step up next season, put himself in the MVP discussions, top player discussions, & become more efficient. Exactly like how Shai took a step this year from last year. Ant has all the tools though.

    3:17 Kenny is wrong.
    There are stats which can answer those queries.
    Individual success - Points Assists, rebounds, blocks etc.
    Value to the team - PIE(Player Impact Estimate).
    If you're talking individual success, then Luka is above SGA on points, assists and rebounds, hell, his average is close to a 30 pt triple double(33.9 ppg, 9.2 rpg, 9.8 apg).
    And if you're talking about PIE for these 3 players, both Jokic and Luka are above SGA.
    Which is to say, both Luka and Jokic have more of an impact on their team than SGA. Both Denver and Dallas' fall way down when Jokic and Luka are absent, compared to Shai in OKC.
    Without the 3 star players in any of these 3 teams, OKC is a much more op and balanced team than Denver and Dallas.

    People need to stop the narrative that Joker isn't playing with any Allstars. Just because you aren't selected to the actual team, doesn't mean your aren't an Allstar caliber player. Jamal Murray balls out like a superstar every playoffs, better than some actual superstars do. If the Nuggets were the East, he'd be selected as an Allstar just like all them years Khris Middleton was selected mostly due to the Bucks having a top record. Not being selected to the Allstar game, does not mean you aren't an Allstar level player. I remember debating with someone on here, they were saying Luka doesn't have any Allstar teammates because none of them made the Allstar game this year. 😑 Bro, Kyrie is a freakin Allstar, he's a superstar! Don't claim he isn't an Allstar just to make a narrative that "Luka has no Allstar teammates." Lol

      @@dukec2255 The point is, Kyrie's an Allstar caliber player, & he didn't make it because he was injured earlier in the year, missed 22 games prior to the Allstar break. If he wasn't injured, he definitely would've made it probably over Paul George or AD since the Lakers weren't winning at that time. Only 12 players can make the Allstar team, that doesn't mean other players aren't deserving. A guy like Sabonis was definitely deserving.
      And since you brought up Curry, Kyrie's stats are actually better than his this year, that's crazy right? A 2nd option having better stats than a 1st option player. Lol

    There was literally a time you had to be top four (home court advantage) in your conference to get an MVP. I don't know exactly when that changed but I remember clearly that the reason KG got his only MVP was because he finally managed that feat.
    New NBA fans don't know that your team's standing actually matters in the MVP conversation and think it really is just a straight forward "Who is the most valuable for their team".
    If that was the case then it wouldn't matter if your team was in the playoffs either.
    So that's why SGA has a stronger case than Luka.
    Team record has always and will always matter.

  • @DonKey496
    @DonKey496 Před měsícem +1

    People really forgot or just choosing to ignore the biggest factor on Jokic winning his 2nd MVP. He had 2k points, 1k rebs and 500 assists that season. The first and only to ever to that! Russ won his for averaging a triple double, first since Big O. Both also lead the league in advanced stats. It made sense why the voters gave them a pass despite being 6th seed.
    My point is Luka doesn't have anything like those this season. He may have great stats, but nothing really historic or record breaking. If they were too 3 seed, he'd definitely deserve to get it but not as a 5th seed.

We need to stay yapping about all-nba like that matters half of it is popularity otherwise Jamal Murry would be considered more. And speaking of all NBA who outside of Kyrie has been on Luka's team - and tbh half of his team can't even make over 10pts half the time. Luka and Kyrie have to drop 25+ each a game to even be competitive

    SGA carried his team on his back. It ain't even close. Without him that team might not even qualify. Joker is great but the way they all judged it last year and the years before. Giannis lost out a few times because they said that he hadn't improved a lot over the previous years. Joker is right up there but if that was one of the criteria he dint improve by much either and when you talk about the 3rd mvp well they expected a lot of giannis. Need to keep the same energy. Cannot be changing the rules. Moreover, SGA as a pg, scoring, defence and overall leadership has been right up there with the elites. Atleast for this regular season and amongst all the MVPs his usage rate and leadership due to the young cast plays a much bigger role. Most Valuable to his team has to be SGA. It isnt just 30 point games its the sum of everything.

    Honestly I don’t think Jokic should’ve won his first 2 MVPs. I think he should’ve got the next 2 but that’s not what happened so it holds me back tbh because he already has those 2 and by the same logic he got them which I didn’t think he should get, Luka should blow this one out of the water. He’s averaging by far better numbers, does more heavy lifting and has lost a lot of surrounding players due to injury while the Nuggets are an amazing team that just mesh so well together. But the narrative shifts and changes every year so whatever. Every time I lose more faith in the MVP debate and care less and less for it. There have always been and will always be absolute robberies with players not getting more when they deserve or getting them when they don’t as much as someone else especially when the people voting don’t even know what they’re voting for and change it up all the damn time.
