[Smook A.]

Its pretty obvious Kevin Durant will win the MVP. We all knew it a month ago

[Budadiiii]

I don't understand why it's not 100%.

KD is winning it. How do people get a prediction like that wrong?

KD is ahead generally, but its a bit closer than you think, some voters will vote for Lebron because they look at the whole thing more objectively.... you see if Lebron was another player (who never won the MVP) who did the things he did this season he would have got much higher attention and/or even have a chance of robbing that MVP from Durant, there is a bit of voter fatigue, each time you win MVP you have to do even better than the previous MVP run to raise eyebrows yet again because by now everybody know what to expect from you.... so when somebody like KD bursts out, its just fresh, its alot more eyebrow raising, like the "Yea Lebron, but you didnt have 41 straight 25 point games, breaking Jordans record!"... at the end of the day KD deserves to win the MVP and he should win it.

What exactly has LeBron done this season?

Been worse than Durant statistically? Led his team to a worse record than Durant? Played no defense? Disappeared in the clutch all season?

LeBron simply has no case over Durant for MVP. None whatsoever. Has nothing to do with "voter fatigue".

Yup. KD has just been better this year. But Lebron is definitely gonna turn it up in the playoffs.

how about durant has just been better this year?

[BigTicket]

Durant is obviously winning, which means that at age 25 he'll have an MVP, four scoring titles and five All NBA first team selections. At this pace he has a good chance of passing both Kobe and Lebron on the all time great rankings, he just needs to start winning some rings.

Take your Bron glasses off. It's not even close. Anyone who thinks Bron deserves the MVP over KD is either a Bron stan or retarded.

bran is an old ass lion bro



that should help to give you some perspective

[KyrieTheFuture]

MVP will never ever be unanimous

[Trollsmasher]

RAPM >>>

Bran = MVP

If Durant wins = Derrick Rose

[Marlo_Stanfield]

durants mvp is worthless.
infalted stats because of weak western conferences and crazy reffing.
not impressed
