I can't believe Durant is just handing MVP to Lebron.

[Connor B]

And I don't blame it on Westbrook either. If you remember back last fall/winter before the new year, the two were playing very well together and even then people were saying Durant had a good shot at winning it. I believe Brook getting injured gave him the opportunity to step up and play amazingly like he did, but I do not blame Brook for either the team's losses or the fact that Durant is losing his grip on MVP.

Durant needs to figure out a way to really take over. When people talk about his lack of killer instinct, this is why. I know Brook let Kyrie eat them tonight, but where was Durant to stop that 4th quarter serge with points of his own? Its not like Brook was chucking tonight anyway actually his offensive game was very good.

If Durant loses MVP this year it is 100% his fault and it is so embarrassing that he is taking this laying down. I guarantee Lebron is back in 100% mode to try to win 5th MVP and 3rd ring and at this rate he will.

[JohnFreeman]

Everybody who wasn't a Durant stan or OKC fan knew this was going to happen.

[Connor B]

Everybody who wasn't a Durant stan or OKC fan knew this was going to happen.

But it doesn't have to. Durant JUST showed us he has the ability to play out of his mind consistently and win. And now people wanna say oh no he can't do that anymore because his all-star teammate came back? it doesn't make any sense.

I think it was more of a consistency issue. He was obviously playing above his average and it's not easy to pull that shit off day in day out.

Durant should still be comfortably in the lead IMO, but yeah if OKC keep losing games and if LeBron keeps up this level of play like he did post-asg last year he'll probably win it again.

He's lost the "comfortable" part...he's still in the lead, but the gap is really small now

If you remember last year Durant was leading the league in scoring till the last 20 games of the season. Melo went on a solid tear but Durant just let it go and was trying to go for triple doubles. He even talked about how great Melo was playing and how he was prob gonna win. Durant layed down then too, 2 months later he was saying he was tired of being 2nd. It's about to happen again.

[JebronLames]

I had durant at 85% to win a couple weeks ago. Now, I have him at around 62-63%. I could see lebron stealing it at the end even tho durant deserves it because of how people were viewing durant during that stretch. Some voters were probably wondering if durant surpassed lebron, so if lebron proves them wrong that he hasn't then the voters will swing their votes toward lebron. Durant hurt his chances at MVP by being so good last year because it raised expectations and took away the surprise factor. If durant came out of nowhere like d rose in 2011, it would be a lock.

[Dr Hawk]

These losses is something we could expect to happen after the return of Westbrook. The teams needs to adapt once again to the presence of Westbrook on the floor. They will finish #1 in the West and Durant will win his first MVP.

[livingby3's]

Calling himself a servant n losing to LeBron right after screwed Durant.

Those are what you call no-impact stats. Durant has become the master at padding his stats for the first three quarters by stealing defensive rebounds from his teammates, cherry-picking shots, etc. But just like in yesterday's game, when the 4th quarter comes around , he starts airballing, bricking shots, and even choking at the free throw line.

[Trollsmasher]

Voter fatigue against LeBron is not happening.

People don't want to give it to Durant. You can see the reluctance in all the media members and even in most of the fans.

Nobody wants Durant to become the face of the league. He is an unlikable, passive aggressive flopping beta playing for a team nobody really cares about. People see it. Media members see it. Voters see it.

That's the reason why most of the basketball world (with an exception of OKC fans and Kobetards) jumped back onto the LeBron MVP bandwagon as soon as Durant faltered and the gap started to shrink somewhat.

[SilkkTheShocker]

LOL at the people that still think Durant's got this MVP in the bag.

It is, but the voters aren't going to be concerned with Durant's January run if Lebron finishes strong at the end, which is what is most important. The same thing that happened last year seems like it might be happening again - Thunder start to slip, Heat going on a run before playoffs. As things now, the Heat are taking off and the Thunder just lost to Cleveland by 10. I believe Durant is still in the lead and is more than capable of securing MVP, but the way Lebron is playing lately, the fact that they are about to take over Indiana, it is clear he is fighting for it and unless Durant plays VERY well the rest of the season, I would not be surprised if Lebron won.

Also teams being stacked are completely irrelevant since both the Thunder and Heat are quite stacked. And you also place too much emphasis on conferences.

End of the day, the deciding factor will be a combination of team record and individual stats, small stretches don't count for anything, its the season as a whole.

Miami and OKC are currently tied in win percentage at .741. A win tonight for Miami with LeBron putting up another 35 points, all around performance, will have him in the lead by a good margin.

The difference between Durant and Lebron is that Durant goes all out at the beginning of the season. He then begins to slow down after the ASG and ultimately tops it off by choking in the playoffs. Lebron, on the other hand, paces himself well. He plays hard after the ASG and primes himself as the playoffs come around.

Exactly. Durant tries super hard in the first 3-4 months (culminating in the All Star Game:lol ) and then generally falls of over the rest of the season:lol

This. LeBron was second in the MVP race from December until last month while he was coasting. Now LeBron has kicked it up a notch and playing lights out to take his MVP back and 3rd ring.

3-peat MVP and championship!

The thing is that I expect voters to have the mindset of "what did you do for me now." If the Heat have the better record at the end of the year, with maybe the #1 seed and LeBron playing consistently great, they are going to favor LeBron in the MVP race.

[J Shuttlesworth]

Wasn't he one assist from a triple double with great efficiency last night?


So you're saying he was efficient, but not dominant?

[JBrizzy]

He isn't handing the MVP to LeBron at all... I think he will probably still get it. If OKC keep losing and Miami keeps winning then who knows.

In my opinion and in the opinion of most sincere fans who don't stan, KD has had the better season and is the frontrunner for the moment. But we also know players get robbed of the MVP sometimes. Most recently Pooh Rose in '11.

Yes. The record will play a big part in it. Imagine Miami getting the #1 seed despite Indiana being the best team in the league for most of the season. If LeBron leads them to the #1 seed in the East, which may mean the best record in the NBA, people are going to start to favor LeBron. Durant is still in the lead, but the gap is getting very small.

Do the 42 points matter if you lose? I don't think so.
Besides, the Heat were on a 6 game road trip.
They won against Dallas, Clippers, GSW, Suns and OKC. Lost only to Utah and Lebron put um 35+ in all of those games except in Oklahoma (33, left early with broken nose) and including a 42 point game in Dallas.

The gap is closing and there's still 25 games left (give or take).

Miami, and LeBron, are getting hot at the right time while OKC has started to struggle. Miami was pacing itself throughout the season and they still had a top record in the league, and now their foot is on the pedal. Durant blew a chance to seal the MVP against Miami, but he was an irrelevant figure in that game and they got blown at home, and now he's lost 3 in a row at home (one team being Cleveland).

This.

The gap is closing but that was expected. It will be interesting no doubt. LBJ fans trying to ignore the significant stats advantage KD has. A couple wins with similar performances from KD and he will be a clear favourite again.

[Ca$H]

And I don't blame it on Westbrook either. If you remember back last fall/winter before the new year, the two were playing very well together and even then people were saying Durant had a good shot at winning it. I believe Brook getting injured gave him the opportunity to step up and play amazingly like he did, but I do not blame Brook for either the team's losses or the fact that Durant is losing his grip on MVP.

Durant needs to figure out a way to really take over. When people talk about his lack of killer instinct, this is why. I know Brook let Kyrie eat them tonight, but where was Durant to stop that 4th quarter serge with points of his own? Its not like Brook was chucking tonight anyway actually his offensive game was very good.

If Durant loses MVP this year it is 100% his fault and it is so embarrassing that he is taking this laying down. I guarantee Lebron is back in 100% mode to try to win 5th MVP and 3rd ring and at this rate he will.

no.

Hardly, as long OKC stays a top 2 seed in the west and Durant keeps producing the stats the way he is he will be top 2 MVP candidate atleast.

I don't why LBJ fans are so desperate to rule him out, just let it play out.

[BigMacAttack]

that is the key word. if durant had got those wins these last few games, maybe.


If he got those win he would still be the obvious MVP, he is certainly still in the race and probably still leading it.

[Duncan21formvp]

Durant is the MVP by a mile. Best stats all around. Heat are undefeated without Lebron and have a guy who won finals mvp. Durant leads in scoring, PER, WS and WS/PER 48 minutes while Lebron is 3rd in scoring, 2nd in PER, 3rd in WS and 4th in WS/PER 48 minutes. For Lebron to get it the Heat need to win as many games as last year and his stats need to be as good.

I know Brook let Kyrie eat them tonight, but where was Durant to stop that 4th quarter serge with points of his own? Its not like Brook was chucking tonight anyway actually his offensive game was very good.

If Durant loses MVP this year it is 100% his fault and it is so embarrassing that he is taking this laying down. I guarantee Lebron is back in 100% mode to try to win 5th MVP and 3rd ring and at this rate he will.

I bet your existence that KD wins it.

Durant is the MVP by a mile. Best stats all around. Heat are undefeated without Lebron and have a guy who won finals mvp. Durant leads in scoring, PER, WS and WS/PER 48 minutes while Lebron is 3rd in scoring, 2nd in PER, 3rd in WS and 4th in WS/PER 48 minutes. For Lebron to get it the Heat need to win as many games as last year and his stats need to be as good.

What a garbage post. Start watching the games instead of just regurgitating stats after reading the box score.

agree with op, this has nothing to do with westbrook, KD made sure HIMSELF he is regarded as second best, terrible competitor

[3LiftHeatCurse]

Jordan would have bitch slapped westbrook already.

LeBron owned the Servant's soul last match up. LeBron is clearly the MVP right now.

[SpecialQue]

Durant's a joke superstar. He'll die without ever winning a championship.

[KyleKong]

Same shit happened last year.

The fact that LeBron COASTED and still put up 25/7/7 on 56% shooting before the all star break just speaks volumes on how he is the greatest player in the game by a mile.
