    The NBA knows Westbrook is nothing special. When he had four triple doubles, LILLARD won player of the week.

    Also- Durant played very well this year. He shot 51/49/85.

    Oh definitely. He should be top 5 but he's missed too many games and Curry has won too many games for him to win it.

    Yep, if you consider both team success and individual stats Curry should be a unanimous MVP, but there's always one Chuck Swirsky in every crowd who will blindly vote for "his guy" no matter what.

    Nope, that was me. I'll say it again, Curry sucks compared to Lillard.

    I don't see how Harden isn't close and shouldn't get some first place votes. The Rockets are third in the west (flirting with second) despite not having their #2 guy most of the year; he's 2nd in the league in scoring, and has comparable advanced stats to Curry.

    I tend to agree that a 28 PER with (almost) 50/40/90 on a 65+ win team should probably earn MVP, but I can acknowledge that there is a valid counter-argument.

    He looks like a fainting goat at times because he flops so much. You don't give a fainting goat the MVP.
