AD getting runner up would still be huge for him and this franchise


Yeah, he's specifically mentioned how because the Pels didn't win the last 2 years everyone stopped talking about him. Being able to get MVP runner up probably makes him think he can be MVP in NOLA eventually. He also seems like the type of person that would take being runner up as reason to work even harder to win it all next time.

It’s unfortunate that you tend to always get the typical Brees vs Rogers/Manning/Brady scenario.


This...You could make a viable case for Brees winning an MVP and it's sad he has not. I don't think the Pelicans/Saints do a good enough job marketing their players. Understand we are in a small Market, but we need to do a better job. It will also allow them to want to buy into the city and STAY and make it an attractive place to come.

Sets up AD for MVP discussion next year


See yes, I like it but at the same time it should be on a 1 year basis..it shouldn't be a "carry over"...

Look at the Pels roster compared to these other teams. It's insane that they aren't one of the worse teams in the NBA. It just says how much AD means to this team and how good he is playing. He played hurt last night and went for 31 points (12/20 shooting) 4/6 from deeop, 9 rebs, 2 stls, and 3 blks in the 2nd half!! C'mon!! give the man the damn award!!

from marc stein's newsletter:

“I hear it,” Davis said. “It’s kind of fun to hear my name in the MVP talks. Of course it’s an achievement that every N.B.A. player wants, but that’s not the ultimate goal. I have plenty more time in this league for that. I want to make the playoffs. And not just make the playoffs — I want to make noise.”


quote:

“I take it personal because I should be able to carry my team to the playoffs every year,” Davis said. “It shouldn’t be, ‘They make the playoffs every two years, every three years.’ I put a lot of pressure on myself. That’s just how my mentality works.”
