[QUOTE=Full Court;14563224]I'd be down for Jenkins getting coach of the year.
Along with Morant getting MVP. :roll:[/QUOTE]
Similar to how Thibs won it in 2011 for installing a killer defensive mentality in a group of solid players led by Rose on offense. I think this similarity is what might trigger the stains so much. They always hated Rose because he took Lebron's MVP at the same time Lebron humilated himself with the decision.

At least there's a decent case for rose getting mvp that year. His team finished with the best record in the league, at 62 wins. That was probably influential to him winning his lone mvp award bt.
Morant's team, otoh, is only 2nd in their conference and they're more than five games behind phoenix. A team that's already winning 60 games this season. What's more, with the presence of embiid and jokic alongside the impacts they give to their respective teams, he doesn't have that much of a compelling case to garner said mvp award outside of "his team is so successful and has exceeded expectations this year" plus what i stated itt about him earlier.

You're really gonna die on this hill? Just give it up.
FOH! His team has been winning without him playing.

Here are some facts:
- The first seeded team is loaded with stars (Booker, CP, Ayton). Memphis has only one star - Morant. Twist it however you want about coaches, tactics, players improving... nobody can deny the fact that Morant is the only star on that team in a league loaded with colluded star teams.
- Jokic and Embiid for all their impact still have led their teams to worse seeds. They may be better players than Morant, they may have more impact, but if their teams are mid tier teams, it doesn't mean shit. You put prime MJ on a kindergarten team in the league, if he wins one game against all odds showing how impactful he is to his team, it still doesn't make him MVP.
- finally, you sir, are a dingus. :lol

Hey, I'm pulling for Morant to win MVP. I really couldn't care less who disagrees and who doesn't like it.

Obliteration without their best player playing.
Don't think we've seen a team play so much better without their only star on the court compared to this one. They have a 70+ win record without Ja, heading towards 20% of the season sample size territory soon enough.

It's truly incredible how much Morant elevates his team, even when he's not on the court!

Poooooor casual. 💩
What's so hard to acknowledge about the fact that memphis has an excellent record (15-2 so far and still counting) without their best player playing in this season? They also lost the last time morant played, which was that game against the hawks without trae young earlier.
Oh, and just because he's the only 'star' in his team doesn't instantly mean that he already deserves it. Like i said, that one also depends on the player's outputs per game. Jokic and embiid are able to put up double/triple doubles on a regular basis in several games and their respective teams have paltry records in games they didn't play. Sad for you and your fellow casuals tho because the same thing can't be said for jajaja morant.
Lastly, for yall gay fans of using that homosexual word 'dingus', you can just lick my balls everytime you do for all i care.

Axe is definitely a dingus, but he's also right for once in his life.
