Player The unfortunately low-ceilinged Shaolin monastery of Victor Wembanyama

[BatManu20]

The hype is real. Spurs have to keep winning though. That's the only way he's going to have a real shot at being named MVP. Hopefully we can keep it rolling down the backstretch. Would also really help if OKC could drop a couple more games.

Victor winning would make him the youngest ever mvp dethroning Derrick Rose, I believe

A quote from the nba.com MVP ladder article about SGA: "He’s shooting 72% over his last four games and has 30 or more points in 41 games, second to Dončić." That's really crazy ...
But yeah, there is definitely real WeMVP buzz in the media now, wonderful stuff!

I kind of feel like this is the NBA just doing their part to be spicy and add excitement to the MVP race in the homestretch and SGA is still a heavy favorite... but it's good to see

The fat twat speaks

Damn, BiasedHouston and OKC beat reporters favor SGA. Let it go people, it's a wrap.

Respect to GG Jackson for not backing down and actually challenging Wemby on this... Anthony Davis would have made a business decision and gotten the F out of the way

The Wemby MVP meltdown is glorious bunch of bandwagon Lakers and methlahoma fans in shambles

 

[wEmBoY]

Wow i was surprised victor climbed up to number 1 in the latest MVP race. League really wanst him to win it. Spurs need a long winning streak for victor to win

PS: this post may not make sense if you're one of the dozens of people who have the same poster on ignore.

Exactly what happened to Timmy in 1999.

The worst part about that was the fact that he actually finished 3rd in the voting.

 

[dn0774]

An obvious "and 1" as well.

 

[BatManu20]

The meltdown on Twitter today from methlahoma fans has been hilarious despite the fact that SGA is still the overwhelming betting favorite to win it at 73%. Easily the dumbest fanbase in the NBA.

Gilgeous-Alexander has the case and plays the role historically favored, but for whatever reason he doesn't captivate the masses, at least like Wembanyama.

It's so weird for the Spurs to be on the other side of this, but It seems like people are almost looking for a reason to give it to the latter. I still don't see it happening, but next season he'll likely be the overwhelming favorite and consensus best player by this time of the year.

I also like that the Spurs have got with the times and stopped shunning self promotion when given the opportunity by the media. It cost them in the past with things like Duncan DPOY and Ginobili All-Star selections. Even if they didn't care much or at all, the fans did and that should matter to the organization.

Should have been an and 1

He would have to up his PPG imo tbh. Apparently offense is all that matters

It's ridiculous that we're in '26 and still supposed to rely on archaic things like ppg, as if it's '06.

If Wembanyama averaged 5 more mpg, he'd average high 20s ppg, but he'd be the same player with the same case.

 

[Hyrup]

I'm just loving the Laker and Thunder fan weep sessions re: Wemby MVP discourse tbh

FTA is a miserable watch is why. At least harden can pass and has cool moves. FTA is just garbage bitch made hoops
