Also picked Iggy for 6th man. But that really isn't against the grain. I've seen more people voters pick Iggy for 6th man than anybody else.

It's the "smart" pick. The only people choosing someone like Gordon are people who just look at stats and don't watch games. Gordon is basically the same player he was last season, and has been shite these past few months.

What does all of this tell us with about 20% of the 1st/2nd place votes known? Harden - 60% to win, obviously!!!

From page 2. I pegged his first second and third place votes. Obvi 4th too. Tough to find someone more plugged in than B TBH

---------

Tbt I had to guess lowed ballot it would be

Leonard
Harden
Westbrook

He's has been pretty upfront with his stance that triple double average isn't MVP worthy on its own.

There is no reason why Westbrook shouldn't win the award. Dude averaged a triple-double for the season. That is amazing and something that has only been done one time. There is no doubt that he deserves the award.

the more respected the writer is, to a man, the less weight they give to triple doubles. You will see the guys who are the respected national guys favouring harden. While the more casual voters. Your Wilbon's. And guys that aren't hoops only will favour Westbrook.

Boom talks up Lowe all the time about being respected, rightfully so.

He chose Kawhi, which Boom has mocked time and time again when posters put Kawhi over Harden.

The one you talk up as being sooooooo respected all the time, no?

But when other posters have Kawhi over Harden, you mock them.

Hmm...

Lots of voters are respected. And my favourite saying of all time is 'reasonable minds may differ'. Lowe is free to pick who he wants. He made a good argument. Oh and I don't remember mocking anyone for picking Leonard either.

See lots of Russell, guess the voters will get it right after all after some questions a few weeks ago.

Except when you mock posters who had Kawhi over Harden.

But you also said this in that very same post.

Lowe is a harden lean going off clues
So he's leaning towards a vote for Harden, but he's not actually going to vote for hard, he's going vote for Leonard instead? That makes no sense.

You can sense the desperation in his posts. It is past denial. He wanted this MVP so bad. It has consumed him.

And just like that, Russ took it away.

Lol this may be true but there's no way of knowing that bud. I personally don't care that much about triple doubles. If Westbrook went 30/10/9 it would still be an amazing season. One extra rebound or assist a game isn't a big deal IMO.
