It's Shai vs Luka. No it's Shai v Jokic. No it's Shai v Cade. V Jaylen. Now it's Shai v Wemby…. Maybe it's the common denominator lol
For me, wemby is the mvp but if sga or any other candidates win i won't be mad
Also it’s worth noting that sometimes on-off numbers can get skewed when a player is playing like, 38 minutes a game, cause there’s just so little data for what the team looks like when they’re off the floor. This ain’t the case with Wemby. His minutes are so low we actually have a good idea of how his team performs without him
If Shai wins it it's all good. Just don't make it seem like he's the clear runaway favorite. It's way closer between him and Wemby.
For the 1st half of the season it was shai vs jokic. Then jokic got hurt so it became shai vs cade or shai vs jaylen brown. Then luka went off and it was shai vs luka. Now wemby is talking about his case and its now shai vs wemby. At what point do you realize oh wait the same guy keeps showing up its his by a land slide???
Shai > the field ⚡️
MVP conversations this whole yr:
Joker vs SGA
Cade vs SGA
Brown vs SGA
Luka vs SGA
Wemby vs SGA
At this point they just wanna make it interesting coz there's 1 person constant in all this MVP talks all yr.
This is just another Embiid propaganda year. They picked who would win before the season even started.
The Spurs offense needs to be addressed, it’s been humming of late.
Shai is the mvp. But it’s fun seeing who else is biting at his heels. It gives us a snapshot at who will potentially get it next year.
I'm a warrior fan and I've completely soured on Giannis. I hope the warriors don't give up a haul for him.
Wemby needs to play in 7, not 8 games.
Why was no one talking about the 65-game rule when Wembanyama missed the Defensive Player of they year last year?
(It was a no-brainer that he should have won that title.)
Wemby's not sitting out, he wants that DPOY
The mvp essentially coming down to a 3 week stretch is a disservice to how amazing these top guys have been.
🤡
No Jason Wemby for the most part was playing part time in the nba, and Shai has played a substantial more amount of minutes than him, I don’t think Wemby should be second Luka is deserving of second.
