Add that with his video-game like play and the media suckfest and you will get a unanimous vote.

Just my opinion of course, but I'll be shocked if it's not unanimous.
No one is arguing that he shouldn't be. You're going full BR here, arguing with no one.

lol at "anonymous MVP"

Prepare to be shocked. It's never happened for a reason and this year there is too much other hype to cling too.

Also, do you think Jordan should have been unanimous MVP when his team won 72 wins?

Actually I am. I don't think he will be. He deserves the MVP though.

I'm elaborating on my opinion. It's a discussion, no argument found.

What record did Russ tie exactly?

And Steph won't be unanimous. There will never be one unless someone averages a triple double or is just flat out insane the entire season, IMO. There will always be a beat writer from somewhere this will vote for a hometown guy.

Do they not talk about Wilt or Robinson much because that's not considered the "modern era"? Were total games in a season different?
Yes.

Not really. In the year the Big O had 41(1961-1962), they had 80 regular season games. And he only played in 79.

Can't get this to copy right, but from Wikipedia. The 1961-62 season was just stupid good.



It's games played, minutes, points, rebounds, assists.

Both are better players to give a vote to than Melo.

Also recorded a triple double in 17 minutes.

Not top 5 but adjusted for pace of play he's probably #1.

Anyways, I'll stand by my point that RW will get a 1st place vote. He had a season worthy of that recognition.

Gotta love Wilt averaging 48.5 minutes a game. Might be my favorite stat ever.

I think LeBron gets a 1st place vote and wouldn't be surprised if Kawhi or RW get one

Livingston getting tossed means Curry will need to play big minutes this half.

Twitter blowing up with people saying curry better than Jordan. It's so asinine that I literally get pissed off having to argue it. The dude is 28.. has glass ankles and has 1 title. He can't even Guard his own position. Wtf

Wilt does have the greatest stat ever, but that is not it. It is his average of 1.5 per night over 40 years...
