The 2023-2024 NBA Season

Okay, so why would it be unacceptable to disregard defense for Luka?

He's not a big man. A big man that can't play defense is an embarrassment.

Jokic would avg 30 if he was the best player in the league and if the rest of his team sucks as you say.

He doesn’t need to average 30. We’ve seen this dude take 6 shots in a game because he wanted other players to get involved.

Aww he needs to pass it away.

 

[Duffman]

Aww he needs to pass it away.

He’s very good at passing it away, that’s why he’s 3rd in the league in assists/game.

Wild that MJ and LeBron have 13 of the top 20

Not really.

Co-GOATs.

So maybe VORP isn’t so bad after all?

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Not front running for anything. Let's discuss PER. Who do you think is # 1 all time? You probably don't wanna talk about that stat.

I'm going by what the actual numbers (stats) say. I know some people don't like what the stats really say. -->People can be biased but the numbers never are.<--

So in your world if I talk about any players that means I'm front running? My goodness what happened to you?

Honestly man I have no issue with you personally. It is very grating as someone who lives and dies by the browns when you chime in all aloof and then have an opinion on this while conveniently straddling a line as both a Nuggets and Celtics fan


I can't understand that at all.

Unless you have someone who breaks the wheel in the way Jokic has.

Everyone acknowledges he's at best medicore defensively. And yet he's top in the league on metrics.

 

[DJ]

The fuck did I miss today? 7pages?

 

[DJ]

Steve Fucking Nash has two MVPs Bwahahaha!

FUCK YOU!!!!

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Stats have outliers.

He is an outlier

 

[DJ]

Because he's white.

There is no other logical explanation.

Jemelle should be on this one

The Great White Hope!!!!

I'm a Nuggets fan? Wow that's news to me.

I'm a Jokic fan. So that makes me a Nuggets fan?

I also like watching Luka. You gonna call me a Mavs fan? I like watching Giannis, you gonna call me a Bucks fan? I like watching Jimmy Buckets, guess I'm a Heat fan too right?

I like watching all the great players in the game today no matter who they play for.

Your opinion of me is way off base. I'm only a true fan of one team.

"I can't understand that at all."

That's because what you choose to believe is 100% incorrect. Too bad you have no clue what you're talking about.

The Great White Hope!!!!

I thought that’s what you were

 

[fightinfunbags]

I thought that’s what you were

Not enough Vorp

Steve Nash lead the league 3 years in a row. Not very MVP to be merely 3rd.

You like watching Joel Embiid. You're a Sixers fan.

To be honest, if I was a Celtics fan, I'd want to pretend i'm a Nuggets fan too...

 

[trojanfan12]

And I sincerely hope that the precedent of voter fatigue can end for all times so that we can actually use MVPs for what it is intended to be.

The problem is...what is it intended to be?

People seem to have different definitions of what an MVP is.

Some think it's the leagues best player. Some think it's the best player on the best team. Some think it's the player who is most valuable to his team.

So, imo, the first thing that needs to happen is they need to come up with a consistent definition.
