Stephen Curry says 'the series isn't over', but it sure is close
He's given up - doesn't deserve the MVP!
He played really bad last night.

Many think Westbrook should've win before the season was over
He did more for his team

Lebron is the true MVP every year
Only player in the NBA that could go to any team in the league and make them an instant contender
Steph is battling a bone bruise on his shooting elbow so I'm not sure why everyone is surprised his shot is off Anyone who's had a joint swell up instantly like that elbow did knows he is still feeling it.

Exactly and every year since its awarded in the post season it appears one or two geniuses lump current play into it.

Granted, Curry playing like shit as of lately. Is he hurt? choking? But, you cannot deny his reg season play. Guy was otherworldly.

not really.. it is a actually called the 'humerus' bone
the term "funny bone" was coined due to the fact that 'humerus' is a homophone (same sound) for 'humorous'
Barkely made good point that he cannot guard Westbrook
It takes too much out of him and Westbrook just way to big and strong for him

Curry hasn't been the same since coming off the injury. If he never got injured I think this would be a different series...
With that being said - GO OKC!!!! Love to see the upset happen.. Westbrook is a beast by the way..

Best two way player in the game, we all saw how old Spurs looked against Thunder. LMA disappears in big spots and the rest of the squad past their prime. Team wouldn't have come close to only 1 home loss without him.

According to Value Over Replacement Player (VORP), one of the best metrics for actually measuring the true value a player provides to his team, the top ten in 2016 were
1. Curry
2. Westbrook
3. Lebron
4. Harden
5. Durant
6. Lowry
7. Kahwi
8. Chris Paul
9. Draymond
10. Millsap
With that in mind its not all that surprising to see the leagues only team with 2 top five guys beating the team with two top ten guys.

Harden is way too high on this list
kills credibility entirely. Paul George needs to be on this list.

Harden is on the list because of his 837 free throw attempts. Guy is not dominant from the field but you take into account that he gets to the line more than anyone and hits at 86%, he provides a ton of value to his team.
Russell shouldn't be as high on the list in my opinion. Not that he isn't good, just takes too many 3s and mid range jump shots. Not his game. His fg% is abysmal from outside 8 feet.
If it is any consolation, Paul George is #11 on that list lol.

That does seem like something I would do.
Lowry has been one of the most "valuable" (not best) players this season. I know most here have only seen his playoff struggles but he was unreal during the regular season. I think if they did MVP MLB style- an MVP in each conference, Lowry would have been second behind Lebron.
List goes to show you that most of the league's best players play in the West.

I dont know what the term entails. I mean does it mean the player's value over the backup on his team or the average position player that the player plays at. I dont like stats and terms like that, seems like these nerds who never played just make stuff up.

Replacement player refers to the player that would be brought up to replace the player in question. It is generally someone who is slightly below average. The idea being it is the average backup at that position in the league.
It is sort of arbitrary, I will admit. I think it is a good metric in the absence of anything better.

To me where would the teams be with out these guys? ..
Houston would not have made the playoffs without James Harden, but conceivably both OKC and GSW would have more then likely still made the playoffs without their superstars.. OKC still has KD, and GSW has Thompson and a deep bench to fall back on..
Lebron went down Cavs still get in with Irving and Love going off all year long in that weak Eastern Conference..
Too me Harden should get the MVP..

LeBron should be MVP every year obviously, the same with Jordan. That just doesn't seem to happen though.

i was rooting for golden state to repeat but okc is just too big and athletic. if curry was 100% and draymond stopped kicking adams in the nuts, they might've had a good chance to repeat.
but sorry pal, put a fork in em cause they're done...

So it's the ball kicking green's fault? Cause I always thought MVP didn't need excuses.
