He's in the MVP conversation..but he should have MIP locked imo.
Better than Paul George level.
More dominant AND more efficient

Re: Jimmy Butler is the MIP...but is he also the MVP?
He has MIP on lock.
MVP should go to someone in the West.

Man I loved Butler coming out but never saw him becoming this caliber of scorer.
I'm not sure that he's MVP, but its certainly not ridiculous to talk about him being in the picture.

Then again you can't give Harden the MVP after being cucked by Lillard last year.

Just wait a year or two and you 'll add McDermott's name to that list.

How often does the best player on the best team in a conference not receive MVP consideration? If the Bulls finish with the best record in the East, as they should, and a top 1-3 record in the NBA (Chicago is 3 games behind Golden State for the best record and only 2 games behind Toronto for 3rd place) Butler will finish no worse than 5th in MVP voting. Granted, last year Paul George was the best player on the top seed--but both he and his team closed the final third of the season so poorly it eliminated him as a contender. Prior to that he was receiving legitimate consideration and was in most people's top 5 MVP candidates during the first half of the season. 15' Butler>14' George. 15' Chicago>14' Indiana.

Re: Jimmy Butler is the MIP...but is he also the MVP?
I can see him getting MIP but definitely not MVP. MVP also takes into consideration impact and I don't think he has the same kind of impact as Rose or Noah. Harden, Curry, and Westbrook (if OKC makes it in the top 5) are much better candidates more important to their team. Butler as MVP is a ridiculous notion that does not take into account how the voting system works.

Yeah. You win MVP on reputation you have earned the previous 2 seasons, plus how well you were a media darling the year you got it. Like Rose, Like Nash, to a degree Lebron as well.
outside of hardcore bball fans, most casuals would be like "who the **** is jimmy butler?"
