    The truth is, me and Trodgers have been in negotiations to buy the Lakers. Deal fell through at the last minute. So we're back.

    It's the truth. Broussard will be reporting about it soon. #Sources

    I wish the MVP were going to Anthony Davis. But no, it will go to ‘Antoni inflated, best friend of refs, zero defense playing James Harden. This clown will then have as many MVPs as Kobe and Shaq, even though his TEAM got BETTER this offseason and he didn’t win last season. Let’s ignore the Chris Paul effect, Harden is MVP, blech.

    I throw up everytime I think of Harden and Pringles's success. The team are the embodiment of everything I hate about basketball.

    It's a regular season award but man doesn't AD look so deserving of the MVP right now.

    I really hate some of these results:

    Covington over Draymond for 1st Team, GTFO..
    Dejounte is good but 2nd Team come on...
    No Paul George on 2nd Team who was top 3 in steals and led the league in deflections

    Was Embiid really that good on defense ? I didn't see enough of their games to know, but I didn't know he was known for his defense.

    I know Dame helped get POR the #3 seed and playoff performances don't factor in at all in this but Dame over Westbrook... wow. Even over the Greek Freak I'm surprised.

    So the award show is next Monday. Who still cares about last season's awards? The NBA has really screwed up this thing. Why not do it inbetween the last game of the regular season and the start of the playoffs? They give the players a week or so off anyways.

    Its full speed ahead with te draft and free agency for next season anyways. The buzz now is this whole Kawhi situations even though the finals were just earlier this month.

    Why did they do this again? Was it to get some attention when no other sports except baseball are active? To avoid having to ever give the MVP award to a player whose team is out in the first round again? I don’t care about the awards now at all, they’re regular season awards, they should be announced right after the regular season ends.

    Something about wanting the NBA to be relevant all year long? Its ridiculous. Doesn't help that last year's show had 2 million viewers, they'll just keep doing it.

    absolutely agree.

    Its complete BS. I don't care who gets what, the season is over and done with with the Dubs winning the title. Everything else is just noise that I don't care about.

    This award show is one big waste of $. They need to get rid of this next year. It's cringe-worthy

    All a lot of people currently care about is the pending free agency breaking news. All these awards are for things that ended when the playoffs ended.
