He’s averaging 34ppg, he has to keep that scoring up to be league leader in points, which plays a big factor in determining MVP.

And if he tweaked his back, then it wouldn’t matter too much if he can’t reach the minimum number of games for MVP. MVP is nice but it shouldn’t be the priority right now. It should be staying healthy enough to go deeper in the playoffs.

Nobody cares about Joel Embiid's MVP campaign. He won't win it so go back to schitting on him please.

The only MVP trophy he should be aiming for the rest of his career is the Finals MVP

He’s played in like 2 4th quarters this month it’s fine guys lol

I feel bad for Pistons fans, been there before with a team that feels like it’s never gonna win. Will say though all that “Restoration” talk Weaver was doing when he first got hired seemed like a not so subtle dig at the Process. Not so easy, is it?
