    I mean this guy is 7 foot tall, dribbles like a guard, is an elite mid-range shooter, elite 3 point shooter, automatic from the line... He looks like he's developed a better understanding of how to deal with smaller defenders and would probably shit all over Tony Allen today if those matchups happened again.
    For sure, he could be. Let's see what happens. This is just Durant's prime now. These next 5 years will dictate his legacy amongst the greats.

    What happened in game 6? He was missing wide open jumpers. It's a complete mystery.

    Green is such a great real time player but he won't win mvp. The award is gonna go to highest scorer just like Chauncey Billups won it by default with the Pistons even though sheed and ben Wallace were more integral

    Green does so much more than a box score indicates. He's as integral to the team as curry or durant, arguably more so bc no one else can do what he does on the team whereas curry and durant overlap each other with scoring.

    Any coach, scout or player will attest to that

    We'll never know. He was pressing all game but they still had a good lead. Thompson made crazy shots and Curry made some too.

    Was he even trying? Seems that he wanted to lose cause a win would have ensured he stayed in OKC

    Blessing in disguise. Now he gets wide open dunks and threes. It's like playing on an Olympics team.

    Only thing you have to worry about is Irving. It's either going to be Durant or Irving winning MVP.

    curry triple double
    still learning durant last 2 games because the blocks and defense...
    need curry to cool off a bit though if he has one huge 40-50 point game he could sway votes

    Durant is the clearcut MVP over curry so far. Steph has been great but it's not even a question who deserves MVP.

    curry has been playing great as well id lean 70/30 KD 2 games in but with one huge curry game it could tilt the scales

    Durant so far easily. If you watched the Warriors all year he's stepping it up now in the finals..Like he was waiting for it

    I put my money on KD as well and so far so good. He's had the most complete performance so far.

    solid basketball minds in the thread.. check this out lets discuss some NBA award prop values
    since we should cash out KD MVP , always need a new bet to use our winnings on

    Went on a personal 7-0 run with his team down 4 with a minute to go

    Irving outplayed Curry tonight. I was starting to wonder after the first 2 games if we were finally seeing the real Irving vs Curry matchup with both guys healthy and Steph was running away with it but like you said, both are gonna have their moments I guess.

    I think this shit ends in 2 days. When a team is down 2-0 and loses a close game 3, it's typically curtains in game 4. Cavs/Hawks 2015, Mavs/Lakers 2011, Wizards/Raptors 2015, etc. Although all those had the team playing to avoid the sweep on the road.

    Well....this bet is a winner. He could score 9 points next game and still be NBA. Nice call.

    Thanks guys. Kinda annoying that Steph has such great rebounding numbers. It's not a lock but Durant should win it.

    I still remember Iguodala getting MVP in 2015 when I had the perfect middle all but sealed, Warriors to win it all and LeBron to be Finals MVP. Honestly I wanted to bet Durant here but I always seem to get fukked on these type of bets so I just laid off.

    It should win though. Expect it to come up in the -500 to -700 range before game 4.

    Bro, Durant has led his team in scoring every game and they give it to him in critical moments over curry. Durant isn't losing finals MVP, he wants to prove he's th best player on the team and didn't just come along for the ride, me and u broke down this matchup to a t. Warriors to win it all preseason is the easiest bet I've ever made in my gambling career, yeah it was only even odds and yeah it's a long time to tie up money, but they're 15-0 in ththe playoffs, anyone that wanted to get cute and bet against them doesn't really understand Bball imo
