If LA finishes as the #1 seed I think Lebron has a great chance of winning the MVP...I believe his main competition will be Embiid, Jokic, and Doncic.


* In the last 32 years, only 1 MVP winner was selected from a team that did not finish top 2 within their conference (Westbrook:6th)

* The voters will not give Giannis a 3rd consecutive MVP.

* Durant's going to finish with incredible numbers, but so will Harden. Harden just won the MVP in 2018. So that's going to work against KD.

* Tatum/Brown are going to cancel each other out.

* AD seems fine with being the #2 guy and will probably miss 10-12 gms. He's also never carried a team to 60+ wins like Harden.

* Embiid could win it, but Philly needs to finish top 2 within the conference and he needs to play no less than 64-66 gms.

* Doncic Could win it but Dallas needs to finish top 2 within the conference.

* I think Jokic could be the exception to the "Finish top 2 in the conference" unwritten rule...If he makes history and becomes the first center to avg a triple-double, I can see him winning the award even if Denver finishes 5th or 6th in the conference.

The defense is what's most impressive to me. I'm also pretty sure we're averaging the same amount of blocks that we did last year too.

Trez is slowly coming along defensively. Vogel is a damn good coach

Fantastic staff too. Gotta admit, I was one of the people shyttin on Jeanie for all the fukkery two years ago. Especially with hiring Vogel and surrounding him with former head coaches. shyt ended up being the best possible idea.
