Posters like you are so predictable. Don’t like a certain player or team so just throw a claim out there with no evidence to support it & then as soon as someone asks you to provide that evidence you immediately deflect which then usually turns into some form of gaslighting.

Homers like you are so predictable. You like a certain player or team so you get asked a simple question then immediately deflect which then usually turns into some form of gaslighting.

- You said the players were begging for Tatum to be MVP.
- I asked you how it can be considered begging when it’s the players that are being asked about Tatum being MVP.
- You said they were creating a false narrative to get the media to start talking about it.
- I said provide me the evidence of the players creating a false narrative.
- You immediately deflected the question by asking if I think Tatum should win MVP which is not what we’re arguing.
- I asked you to answer the my question by providing evidence of players creating a false narrative to get the media to start talking about Tatum being MVP.
- You again avoided that question by telling me to answer your question or stop wasting your time.

So exactly who’s deflecting again ?

I’m going to be the bigger person & move on because it’s clear your ego won’t allow you to admit that you just made up that Tatum’s teammates were creating a false narrative to start talking about Tatum in the MVP discussions.

Move on with your Homer self because clearly you can’t answer a simple question.
Tatum isn’t an MVP unless he plays a media game.

Why isn’t Giannis getting more media pop in the mvp race?

Because Jokic and SGA have been better and there's a perception the Bucks have underachieved so far.

Jokic is not letting up I don’t see him losing MVP. Denver looks like they want the one seed

It's all Jokic now. The guy is playing at a level that's just on another planet.
Thank you Nico!

Race is between Jokic and Shai

Jokic is running away with it though.

Jokic came back from the All Star game on a mission to crush, it looks like.

SGA is playing extremely well, and even today went 36/7/5/3/1 in a big comeback victory. But Jokic is just playing half a level better. OKC probably needs to open up a 4 game gap on Denver to really make this hard for the voters.
