I know Butler is the best player for Bulls but I feel like Rondo is the biggest reason why they're up 2-0 going home.

My vote is Rondo.
Sometimes I'll start a sentence and I don't even know where it's going. I just hope I find it along the way.

Kawhi, LeBron, and Wall have been great so far, irrespective of their team. I'd nudge Green near there too, but mostly for Game 1.

Definitely a big and unexpected surprise by everyone including I imagine his own team.

Gobert has easily been the MVP. Not even up for discussion.

too early to tell...but in the East... John Wall stands out for me. Playoff Rondo is doin his thing too. Giannis had an impressive Game 1...Game 2 not so much.

In the West i like what Kawhi is doing.

Lance Stephenson for his defensive work in the post. Also a head nod to McMillian for that bit of strategic coaching.

He has as good of an argument as anyone. It's certainly nothing to laugh at. Who do you think is? Butler? You think it's laughable if someone thinks that Wall is better than Butler?

Ya trust me for all that missed it, you didn't want to blink once during Gobert's great game. The impact he had on the court when he was on it was unbelievable. You didn't want to take your eyes off the screen because you didn't want to miss it. MVP for sure.

I was laughing about him being 2nd best player in the east because well he's not

But with that said Butler is better than Wall. As is Paul George, Giannis and me personally I would still take Irving over him at PG

I love how LBJ has not one vote on this thread. I get that people hate him but come on.

Well most/many people would disagree, so clearly it's not laughable.

And among anyone who knows NBA you're on an island by yourself taking Irving over Wall brosef, that's like a "13yos commenting on youtube videos" type of opinion

Check LBJ's numbers over the first two games and get back to me.

That is your opinion. Alot of people wouldn't. It's certainly nothing to laugh about, especially considering he's a former all nba defender and I haven't seen one list yet that doesn't have him as an all nba player this year. Maybe we will see next round if him and Butler advance
