NBA Fans = We need a more competitive All Star Game. Also NBA Fans = Vote all the same players that don’t compete during ASG. They need to vote the young and hungry all star players if you want a good ASG and if they want a change.
KD represents the 10th seed (22-21) and Steph 11th with a negative record, whereas Houston (29-14) and Memphis (29-15) are entirely snubbed. Those two starter nominations are just retirement gifts, ridiculous. I would prefer to see Sengün, Morant or Wemby over both. The new generation has taken over the game, the old guard still claims the fame.
Why are you bringing up KD and Steph team records to say they don't belong, but then bring up Wemby? His team has a worse record than both. Sengun and JA have a case, but Wemby has none at all.
It hasn’t always been that way, Vince Carter was voted the starter of Wizards MJ, and rightfully so. This popularity contest only started over the last 10 or so years
Chuck spilled the beans, you better hear the way he said it, not just what he said, they will give the MVP to Shai if he stays healthy and plays the required 65 games.
I remember people were saying Wemby wouldn’t make the All-Star game at the beginning of the season because he was struggling a few games. Once again he proved y’all wrong and now we are here. 👽
Im canadian and I love SGA. But imo, if the season ended now, how in the world would Joker not be the Mvp. Joker is having an absolute historical season and hos efficiency is off the charts. And tonights masterpiece of 35+ 20+ & 15+ stat line hasnt been done in nearly 60 years. Joker is undoubtedly the most valuable player
Jalen Green Western Conference Player of the Week. The Houston Rockets are 2nd in the West. Against Memphis on Jan. 9, Jalen Green joined Damian Lillard(1/23-2/1/20) as the only players in NBA History to have scored at least 25 points and hit 4 - plus 3 - pointers while shooting at least 50.0% from the floor and 50.0% from 3- point range in 5 straight games.
This is kinda the problem with the NBA. Is this all the same guys as last year? Can we get some new blood? Game is so soft players can play until late 30s without issue and hog the spotlight.
I love that Western Conference lineup. Curry over Brunson SGA over Mitchell KD over Tatum Joker and Greek Freak / Toss up Bron and KAT / probably KAT due to age difference.
Fox and dbook probably deserve more than steph imo. Also i’m not sure about brunson as a starter. And wemby and ad should also start instead of bron and kd
Rockets Jalen Green and Alperen Sengun getting snubbed will be Great for the Rockets Motivation, just wreck the League in the Playoffs. Make the Fans, Media remember.
Steph is a starter because the game is in San Francisco. Lauri Markannen started in Utah since he was playing well & Haliburton was a starter in Indiana last year. Having a starter from the host galvanizes the fans, and it will probably be Steph’s last shot at being an all star starter anyway. Shai and Luka might dominate this for the next few years and Luka only played half their games, ain’t no sweat off his sack
I can't front jokic season stats being top 5 in at least 4 categories is tough....even with Denver being the 4th seed I'm not sure SGA is a lock for mvp cuz jokic is making it hard right now. And I'm not even a stat guy but he's doing too much for his team to go unnoticed and they are s top 4 team in the west
How is Ja Marant not at the very top in votes??? The most exciting player who technically imo should be considered as an MVP contender. Look at Memphis last year vs this year and its evident theyre where they are because of JA.
I like how Ernie read those Jokic's stats after Chuck's SGA comment.
He knew what he was doing
If the Nuggets play like this through the end of the season Jokic has a chance for that MVP
Wembanyama will soon be on this list.
