1. Steph Curry
2. Russell Westbrook
3. LeBron James
4. Kyle Lowry
5. Paul George
6. Kawhi Leonard


I think the top 3 are somewhat self explanitory. Savage Sab is a beast but he makes some boneheaded plays and having KD on the team hurts his chances somewhat.
LeBron still killing it as usual probably not gettin the respect he deserves somewhat. I contemplated putting him at 2 actually.
Kyle Lowry is in the best shape of his life and in his prime. No one reads the opposing offense from the Point like Kyle right now. He is also improved his 3 point shooting and shot selection. His floaters havent been dropping so that will even out somewhat as the season progresses. The raptors are -11 with him off the floor and +9 when he is playing. That's a 20 point swing.
He is taking CP3s spot as the best high IQ waterbug.
Paul George vs Kawhi seems to be set to become a great comparison for many years to come. Arguably the 2 best perimeter defenders who can do everything on offense. This ranking Isn necessarily a list of the best players in the NBA or even the best players this year. These are my choices for a hypothetical MVP ballot, so because PG13 is doing more with less I gave him the edge. Spurs would still be very very good w/o Kawhi. W/o George the Pacers didnt make the playoffs last year and that was before they lost Hibbert and West.

told nikkas bout Lowry during da offseason son ballin out and PG good to see fam back shyt better than what he was....
Im more of a Kawhi fan than a Geoge fan but PGs game is undeniable. Especially impressed with his jumper. Soo wet right now. Not to mention, he is a rare perimeter Defender that's so good that he makes guys like Jordan Hill seem competent on d. Hats of to Vogel as well though

Kyle's been great so far. Best PG in the conference like I figured he could be with the weight loss

Unless he gets injured, really think the MVP is Curry's to lose. About to get a b2b winner.

lebron is STILL the best all-around player in the NBA...but it will be difficult for him to get the mvp this year over steph and westbrook....

the warriors will cool off eventually and we'll see then
