How can you care enough to complain about this thread? If it offends you, think of it as a "who's playing best" thread for now, or are we not allowed to talk about that either?

Change my #1 to MCW for now.

I can see the headline now: MCW gets a dub over the Dubs. MVP?

That's when the mainstream bandwagoning would REALLY begin

It's a discussion board where the things said have no real world implications, it isn't difficult to understand why people would speculate on something like this unless you're incredibly dumb.

No, no, I have no problem with people talking about it, I'm just saying I can't do it because it makes no sense to me due to the sample size, I can't make any conclusions and haven't watched enough teams. Also some guys have like one really good game and their production just looks so good with so few games.

Kevin Love wins MVP after 3 games: (there is an award for that right?)

29.6 pts
14.6 rebs
3.6 ast

Wolves 3-0

Paying a hefty $27 over here too - so might be worth putting a bit of cash on!

I like CP3's chances this year. Even more so than Love's, because Clippers is a better team than Wolves and Paul actually plays defense.

So far Paul is averaging 27.7 PTS, 12 AST, 4 REB, 3.7 STL and Clips are 2-1.

No love for Davis as 3 game MVP? 23.7pts, 12.3rebs, 4blks and 2.7stls.

If his team starts winning and he doesn't have too many inefficient games like the first two he'll definitely be a candidate.

If Wolves stay healthy, they'll be a better team than the Clips. Maybe Clips will have a better record, but healthy Wolves team with Budinger and Turiaf back will beat them in a 7 game series.

Those two scrubs aren't gonna be what makes the Wolves better than the Clippers.

CP3 > Rubio (Rubio could guard CP3 better than any PG other than maybe Rondo or Conley), KMart> Redick, Corey Brewer> Dudley, Love > Griffin, Pek> DJ, Barea=Crawford (Crawford is better scorer, Barea better creator), Barnes > Derrick Williams, Dante Cunningham> Antawn Jamison, Chase Budinger?Reggie Bullock, Dieng?Mullens

Bottom line, Love and Pek will outplay Griffin and DJ as they always do and wear the Clipper frontline down in a series. Clippers will miss a lot of fts.

Bottom line, Love and Pek will outplay Griffin and DJ thoroughly and wear the Clipper frontline down in a series. Clippers will miss a lot of fts. Clips

I didn't say one team was better than the other, but that those two players you mentioned isn't what's going to separate the two teams.

You said Clips were better team than the Wolves so CP3 would have a better shot. Yeah I didn't mean to say Budinger and Turiaf were the difference, but they still are far from scrubs. Putting a Kmart/Budinger/Love combination out there, for example, really spreads the defense out. And as we know matchups and mismatches are very important in the playoffs. Of course this is all my biased opinion as a wolves fan, so we'll have to see lol

Match ups are important, Budinger and Turiaf are not.

You're rounding down when you should be rounding up. Its 29.7/14.7/3.7

Oh, and he's getting those 29.7 points per game on just 16.7 shots per game. That's damn efficient!

Howard

K Love

Cp3

I expect bron and durant to be in the mix soon.
