    Oh, no, I agree. I'm just saying that, in the LAL game, Giannis' team is fantastic and can win, even if he doesn't produce a monster game.

    And in the Utah game, even though Giannis had a bonkers statline, he couldn't do enough down the stretch.

    Looking at it on a micro-level, both instances should actually hurt his MVP chances. But you can bet the media won't be talking about MIL.

    The East is so weak. The West is insanely competitive.

    Alot of homerism there, bud. This the real list,
    2. Durant
    3. Harden
    4. Antetokounmpo
    5. Curry
    I like Harden alot but he isn't the second best player in the league. Durant is.

    That is just NASTY on the MVP by Al. I’ve always thought Horford is a surprisingly good smart defender. He’s defended Harden well in the past also.

    You need to take off your homer glasses if you think Harden was anything but a steaming pile of garbage yesterday.

    After these playsoffs the new world order is clearly
    Kawhi 1, Durant 2, Curry 3

    The the rest.... Gianni's, Harden, LeBron, George, etc ...

    Durant is the best player in the league even though he has become an arrogant jerk. A seven-foot guard that has a killer shot!? Forget about it. I have been really impressed with Leonard because he elevated his game in the playoffs. The great ones have also done that; Dream, Jordan, Magic, etc. There are many great players in the NBA, and in a sense, anybody in the NBA is better than most players in the world.
