He has a worse PER and TS Than harden who is supposedly washed.
Booker is the most overrated player in years.

His game is pleasing to eye test bc it looks pretty but the numbers tell the story.

Nah, but monte should be coach of the year

Because his shooting splits are above average, not elite. His scoring overall isn't elite.
He's a very good combo guard, but he's not elite.
He's a good passer, but he's not elite.
He's a good defender, but he's not elite.
So while he may be on the best team, he's not an elite individual player.
Embiid is elite in multiple aspects.
Giannis is elite in multiple aspects.
Jokic is elite in multiple aspects.

He’s a volume scorer. Not efficient. Not a playmaker.

Best player on the best team shouldn’t always be the MVP
Embiid will win. Jokic and Giannis are the two other contenders

PER is no longer the best stat to use to judge mvp worthiness. PER is bias towards big men and ball dominant players. John Hollinger created PER well before the thought of such a ball dominant offensive era could even be conceivable. He basically based the high end of the number (30 and above) off of Michael Jordan's best season.
CP3 is the engine of the Suns but Book is the go-to guy for the team. You just aren't going to see true Shooting guards with high PERs.
Now with that being said, Booker is not the MVP and has fallen victim to three guys that have put up phenomenal seasons in Joel, Joker, and Giannis.

I never said it had to be. But that's a really, REALLY bad PER for an MVP candidate.

And this is where you "gotcha'd" your argument. You're using "true Shooting guards" as a malleable target. I imagine you're proving Boom's aesthetic based argument in real time.
There are plenty of non-bigs with higher PER than Booker this year. It just so happens that the 3 best players this year are all bigs (Jokic, Embiid, Giannis).

I don’t see how you can say Booker is overrated. No one out there is rating him as elite. He’s just a borderline all star second fiddle. Similar to Bradley Beal or CJ McCollum
re: My friend thinks Devin Booker should be MVP this season. Tell him why he’s wrongPosted by Boomshockalocka on 4/16/22 at 10:34 pm to TigerMan327
No one rating him as elite? He is gonna finish top 5 for MVP and all of his metrics say he isn’t even a top 20 player.

Hes shooting 47% from the field, and 38% from 3.
Also leads the NBA in points per touch.
But hes not efficient

His true shooting % is league average. “Points per touch” tells us he doesn’t do much play making.
