    You think a guy whose team is 10th in the weakest conference ever should win MVP? That has never happened and will never happen.

    Actually, make that 12th in East. Bucks fell to 12th tonight. If at the end of the season he had those stats and his team was 12th in East, would you really hand him the MVP award?

    It's 1/8th of the season. Record doesn't matter yet.

    Nice video. Really well done.

    Agree with your top three, but personally I'd put Cousins at four and drop Steph down a spot. Cuz is averaging 29, 13, 6 with 2 blocks and 1.5 steals. His advanced stats are incredible, too. And I know you're not tracking records, but Pelicans are 6-5, which is pretty good with their dearth of talent surrounding AD and Cuz.

    Still, really enjoyed the video. Nice job, man!

    Thanks man! Cousins is hard to place, but if he keeps those numbers up he'll be borderline top 5. Hard to put two players from the same team in the top 10 and it's hard to pick between Davis and Cousins.
    We talkin' campus TV?! That could be taken as an insult!!!

    All seriousness, thanks man! Appreciate it!

    So record doesn't matter but small sample stats do? I think it all matters. Right now, all we have is what we have. I think my list makes the most sense for RIGHT NOW. Which is all you're doing, right? MVP right now. And if your team has a crappy record, you're not a CURRENT top candidate for MVP.

    Every team is within about 4 games of each other. At the end of the season, a 4-game difference doesn't really make a difference in the MVP race. Two games are the difference between 4-5 and 6-3. That can boil down to two plays, and make a huge difference, so why should we dock players for that? That's a lot more variable within a small sample size than stats.

    Yes a 4 game difference does matter. Most of the time, MVP goes to best player on best team. Last year was an anomaly. Also- 4 games in 10 games means they will be 24 game difference over season. 29-53. MVP won't go to player with losing record.
