Kolek planning to go pro
No. A good case can be made for any of the 3 guys.They are all so good that no one talks about Booker, Curry, or LeBron - who is having a career year at 37 years old. I think the last time MJ averaged 30 pts. was when he was 32.
Curry? Hes now hurt and his season while still really good is nowhere near the others, his team is nowhere near the others and its a season that isnt even top of the line for Curry himself.
I know MVP has turned into "best player on one of the top teams" but in terms of value, Curry's impact is kind of amazing. They were 47-22, tied with Memphis for 2nd in the West. Curry gets hurt, they lose 6 of 7, and to some bad teams. Meanwhile, the Grizz lose Morant for awhile and win 5 straight including over the Bucks and Nets.
Are you implying they aren't vaccinated and thus can't get into Canada?
I like my source
The absolute only argument Embiid has for MVP over either Giannis or Jokic is “He hasn’t won one yet.” It should be a two horse race, and in my opinion Jokic should win it if he can keep the Nuggets from the play in game.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sg-aPCp9me8&t=39sDear God talk about a guy with a lack of self awareness. Embiid telling KD (or anyone, for that matter) not to flop and to stay up if he draws contact is absolutely absurd.
Give him credit for quickly calling out JJ not having Giannis top 3.
If JJ had a teammate as good as Giannis, he could have ridden his coattails to actually win something
Come on now. We can mock a bad take, but no need to disparage a really good career. He's top 15 all time in 3P makes. A career 41.5% shooter from deep, if you take out the weird years in Orlando where he wasn't really 3P shooter (less than 3 attempts per game), it bumps up to 43% and he's top 10 all time. Thats on nearly 5000 atttempts. The only other player to shoot 4000+ 3s and shoot a higher percentage is Steph. The only one with 3500+ to best him is Nash. Dude is an all time shooting great. He didn't need to ride coattails. He just got unlucky with those Clippers teams that Blake and CP3 couldn't get over the hump and then Brett Brown not getting it done in Philly.
100%. A lot of people like to hate on JJ, mainly because of his Duke ties. He really was an elite shooter.
He had 2 elite skills - shooting and intensity. He was nowhere near good enough to help a team win a title if he was the 2nd or 3rd best player on the team, though.
