    I probably missed it somewhere in an "Around the League" thread or something, and I don't know how I'm the one breaking this news, but Dame was 6th in MVP.

    For those who don't want to click the link or don't follow teh tweets, here's everyone that got a vote:
    1) Giannis - 941
    2) Harden - 776
    3) PG13 - 356
    4) Jokic - 212
    5) Steph - 176
    6) Dame - 68
    7) Embiid - 49
    8) Durant - 25
    9) Kawhi - 18
    10) Westbrook - 8
    11) Gobert - 1
    12) LeBron - 1

    Funnily enough, if you took a team of top 5 vs. next 5, I like Dame/RW/Durant/Kawhi/Embiid against Steph/Harden/Giannis/PG13/Jokic.

    Kawhi 9th....amusing. Perhaps the best 2-way player in the league.

    For regular season its fine - load management.

    That hurts his MVP changes but allowed Kawhi to dominate the playoffs and win a title.

    Hope Lillard/CJ can do some of that next season. I think CJ injury actually helped, he had stamina in game 7 at Denver I don't think he would have in prior seasons.

    Hopefully the NBA fixes this stupid schedule, guys play so much harder than in the 80's its impossible today to play big minutes for 82 games and still be in peak shape for the playoffs.
