agree, the Lakers completely fall apart without him on the floor

[tontoz]

Very impressive for a guy in his 17th season. I don't know but i would bet nobody in their 17th season has ever done it once.

As he should, especially because of the Kobe situation.

I agree that LeBron should win the MVP. But there is no chance that he will. It would completely go against all convention and therefore be your classic narrative driven MVP.

Giannis has the best stats of any player. And his team has the best record in the league. Barring a 10+ game injury, or a completely unexpected form slump by him or the Bucks, he will get the MVP.

LeBron is better and more valuable than Giannis, for sure. But Giannis and the bucks just keep doing things that historically indicate an MVP is coming his way.

LeBron can't catch Giannis, it's his to lose.

If he can close the win gap, maybe. But as of now it's

52 wins to 46 wins

Lakers are closer than I thought but the season is closing

Giannis is a lock. Better numbers, better record, doesn't have another superstar like AD on the team. He's honestly the easiest pick for MVP since Curry in 2016

Even if you want to decontextualize the narrative-driven dynamic of the award, he still outqualifies LeBron.

Giannis is the more productive and efficient scorer, is his team's—and the league's, some would argue—best defender, and outachieves him in virtually every impact-oriented metric; LeBron's only clear one-uppance is in the playmaking department, and it's hard to argue he's his team's offensive mainstay overall when Anthony Davis is their leading scorer.

Obviously, the playoffs are a different animal, and Giannis still needs to prove he can tame it well. But he's demonstrably been the better and more impactful regular-season player so far, which is all that's relevant for the regular-season award.

That being said, I do feel LeBron deserves some token first-place votes for his incredible season—but not nearly enough to outvote Giannis by any frame of reference.

The NBA is still going on with the coronavirus? Who is stupid enough to go to a game?

You think Spike Lee is gonna stop going to games after investing $10 million in Knicks tickets over the years?

Giannis has a 31.8 PER (that's Wilt-level). Lebron is 25.6. Giannis has 96 defensive rating to Lebron's 106, and is leading the league in win shares. Giannis has a 11.5 BPM to 8.1 for Lebron.
