Steph Curry Wins Inaugural Western Conference Finals MVP

[RealGM Wiretap]

Steph Curry was named as the first ever Magic Johnson Western Conference finals Most Valuable Player following the Golden State Warriors series-clinching win over the Dallas Mavericks.

The award was voted on by nine members of the media after Game 5. The league introduced MVP awards for the conference finals earlier this season. 

Curry averaged 23.8 points, 7.4 assists, and 6.6 rebounds in the series.

I think we can all agree that this is a fake award given out for not winning the title. It may as well be the lebron James award, rather than magic johnson

Oh is that why Steph Curry’s +/- stats are so poor? Oh wait, they aren’t, they are great. lol. I hate plus/minus stats but it speaks perfectly to the point you are trying to make.

Umm, it's not an award for who flops the most, so no.

Who are these nine media members that didn't even consider the great Kevon Looney?

Why? This is so pointless! I give it three season before they sell the naming rights. It's going to be:
