Clutch player of the year award seems so forced. Last year Fox kind of stood out, but this year no one does.

This is pretty much the last year Jokic will be winning MVP. SGA, Luka, Brunson will be my candidates next season.

Is Jokic planning on retiring after this year or something? Idk how anyone can say so confidently it’s the last time he wins it.

I saw it during Jordan's career. His standard of excellence is so high, he's not just competing against the other players, he's competing against his best seasons. I'm not saying it's right or wrong, that's just my perception.

Demar has been pretty ridiculous in the clutch this year. But he's on the Bulls so no one is watching lol

I've actually watched dozens of minutes of Bulls games.

No but this is the only year sga had a shot...it's to bad embiid won last year cuz he kinda screwed everything up...Jokic should have last year and SGA should have won this year...

I still think SGA should have won this year regardless...

But unless something happens to Jokic or Doncic and others...SGA doesn't stand a chance...He won't have a better narrative than this year...

And then Greg Anthony confirms that with his reasoning for selecting Shai as MVP.

I don't think anybody predicted the Thunder to be a top 3 team in the West. I had them as a play in team before the season. For a team that young to be the #2 seed in a tough Western conference is impressive.

SGA is my MVP.

I was ready to make his case half way through the season but Shai tailed off after all star. Think he finishes 3rd but that's still one hell of an achievement.

6th man is the only award with any drama.

Embiid, I don't see him playing 65. And Giannis, I think his MVP regular seasons are behind him, still an elite player though.

I agree with all except I believe it will be Coby White who ultimately wins MIP in a close one. Derozan wins Clutch Player.

Not saying that he should have been a lock for MIP finalist but if Cam Thomas wasn’t very close to being one then something is very wrong
