Jokes aside, unlike the last 3 seasons I'm fine with somebody other than Harden winning. It's a regular season award and I think he deserved it.
The Bucks are 116-39 over the last two seasons. The Bucks have been the #1 seed the last two seasons. The Bucks have not gone to the Finals. The Bucks lost in the first round this season. Giannis has now won two MVP awards and has received minimal criticism.
Well deserved. He's been the most dominant player in the nba in the past two regular seasons... Leading the bucks to the best record in the nba by a wide margin. The playoffs however have been a different story... Nonetheless, the mvp award is a regular season award and Gianni's at 25 has time to improve , a scary proposition.
Its a hype award. At the time of voting, Milwaukee looked to be very good going into the playoffs. He won't win it next year no matter how good his team is... because he will have the stench of playoff failure still on him which will drive his narrative.
The worst MVP winner ever. His go-to move is to barrel into the player in the paint between him and the rim and then stretch his Plastic Man arm for a dunk. Lame!
Maybe this will change the whole thing once and for all, ridiculous how a glorified bulldozer can win back-to-back MVPs. It might be worse than Nash winning.
