There is no way on Earth Chris Paul makes a team whose second best player is Andrew Wiggins second in the conference, and if you traded Steph for Paul I'm not even sure Curry would be the best player on the Suns.

klay averaged as many turnovers as assists basically. dude made so many stupid to's and could never drive the ball as well as curry. he's also practically a foot bigger and somehow less of a rebounder

if in one minute of a game for example if you hit a crazy three, turn the ball Over , and then give up 4 points then you are not as valuable as other players

I like Steph, he came to a league a mediocre player and now has 3 rings as a slightly better mediocre player.

Nikola Jokic is the MVP because he has "The Look" Players with "The Look" can overcome many things to dominate the game of basketball, but not all things Players without "The Look" can dominate the game of basketball and have success, but don't do so as a winner - they are passive passengers Joel Embiid does not have "The Look" and he had it in fact removed by Karl-Anthony Towns, who dominated him in the post and the perimeter and probably also in Fortnite Steph Curry had one of the greatest shooting seasons of all time and then later had another, he consistently "Scores The Ball" which allows for his team to win games. However, he does not have "The Look" which would have allowed him to freeze pudgy white man Kevin Love in place, instead he has "The Not Look" which allowed Kevin Love to perform the greatest defensive sequence recorded by man LeBron James has "The Look" and will occasionally funnel it into "Winning Championships" but also likes to take time off (though not enough! he does not work hard like Jimmy and he is not lazy like Klay!) to make Space Jam 2 a financial and critical success as well as launch his podcast network with Barack Obama. Keep your EYES OPEN as he submits name change paperwork to become LeJon Jons If you see Nikola Jokic NOT winning championships, you should think about the things that he is trying to overcome? What is his real vision? What is his plan? You may notice Michael "Maga" Porter, Jr. is his co-pilot to greatness this year. Nikola is a sage individual and knows that MPJ winning an NBA championship this early in the Biden admin guarantees a Kamala victory in 2024 and stops the ascendancy of Full Communism Now - a thing he can know a priori due to being Serbian - which is essentially the Earth version of being a Saiyan QED - MVP Go Bucks - Midwest Solidarity

Some say it was CP3 coming on that propelled them to the top of the league, others - more intelligent - say that it was D.Book finally being allowed to get "The Look" uninterrupted

shooting by itself is overrated especially now in the league when lots of teams shoot well I understand that old grand parents who watch a lot of espn and have fantasy teams would be easily impressed by Steph’s box score numbers. when you grow up watching people play in the 90s and 00s it must look impressive to see such box score numbers but shooting efficiency numbers by themself are an abstraction . you have to look at the whole player and how their team performs . us younger thinkers know to not take stats in I solation but look at what actually happened . along with shooting percentage we also bravely look at who won the game . we are not afraid to consider this the real world for example last night the Washington wizards shot excellently . they were 56%/40%/80% . the old Steph fans would think wow that is great shooting they are a finals team full of mvps and ball of famers !!!! no. the wizards lost. there is more to basketball than shooting euphronius fucked around with this message at 11:33 on May 24, 2021 |

Who is the more valuable player ? Player A: 100% 3p% Player B : 0% 3p% It’s a truck question you can’t tell from those numbers who is valuable
