@SIChrisMannix Your vote and words have value. Please do some research before spreading fake information to the public.

Monster game for Joel Embiid: 29 points, six rebounds, two blocks, including swatting away Brandon Miller's potential game-tying three. Sixers move into a tie with Atlanta for No. 6 in the EC.

@NekiasNBA The quality of @SInow just keeps going down. Incompetent hires over and over.

WHY. ARE. WE. USING. DEFENSIVE. RATING. AS. AN. INDIVIDUAL. STAT. IN. 2026??????

@TheNBABase You cant pick a random stat as argument when you dont even know what it means 😭😭😭😭😭😭 holy mvp is based off of thoughts and prayers at this point

SI’s Chris Mannix Snubs Luka Dončić from Top 4 MVP Candidates, Calls His Defense ‘One of the Worst in the League’ "I’ve got Luca Dončić in my second tier. Now, I know there’s going to be some criticism about Luka being on the second tier—he’s been outstanding offensively—I just can’t get past the defensive numbers for Luca Dončić. The defensive numbers have just been they’ve been bad. I want to read some of this: Luka has an individual defensive rating this year of 115.6. That would rank 119th among the 180 players with 25-plus starts this season. So he has been, in any measurable statistic, one of the worst defensive players in the league. And when the competition is this close, I’ve got to factor that in. I’ve got to include what you’re bringing to the table defensively. He’s the best offensive player in the game, the best offensive weapon in the game, but defensively he’s coming up short. My first tier is the group of players that we’ve been talking about: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Victor Wembanyama, Nikola Jokić, Jaylen Brown. Those four guys are in my first tier and those are the four guys that I am considering casting my MVP vote for." (Via @SInow )

@RichStapless Deadass when has these rating and net rating ever come up in mvp talk. Its so dumb, we see d. white as 3rd and chet as #4 best in league by these metric.

This is why it’s disturbing to me that these are the folks responsible for deciding MVP because they’re not even aware of how certain metrics that they wanna use to justify their decisions work. DrTG measures how many points per 100 possessions a team allows when a player is on the floor. That’s a metric heavily influenced by the team. Luka’s DRTG on basketball reference is 114. Jokic’s is 112, but somehow that gets Jokic in a different tier even though by your own admission, Luka’s the best offensive player in the game. Individually, Luka does rank 7th in steals, but I know, that doesn’t mean he’s a great defender. Well in the month of March, the Lakers are giving up 10(!) points per 100 more with Luka off the court vs on. @SIChrisMannix you gotta do better.

@ohnohedidnt24 Too much analysis and luka appreciation. Lin youre fired.

Jeremy Lin with an awesome breakdown on how Luka is so good in isolation:

This Lin muthafucker came on ESPN and called Luka generational He for sure is not get invited back lol 😂 😂

@williammmmc @_JasonLT White is definitely #3 in mvp race 🤣

Using +/- as a way to justify them being 1 and 2 is diabolical when half their starting rotations are inside the top 16. Minutes have to matter and is probably a better metric than just games. You could argue that if Cade played less minutes he might not have gotten hurt so in this hypothetical world, if Wemby plays more would he not be as durable? How can you be the most valuable if you aren't available? So yes, playing 29 minutes a night and have a good +/- isn't a talking point for MVP.

The “Wemby’s total minutes” convo seems silly to me considering he’s 2nd in total +/- in the NBA. He’s accomplishing a hell of a lot more on the scoreboard per minute than anyone else this year. By the way, SGA is #1 on that list. Feels right to me that they’re 1 & 2 for MVP.

@xstrap24 @Alejandro_t9 @_JasonLT But imagine the per 36 all year!

@Alejandro_t9 @_JasonLT 159 mins SHORE

@ORATOR_APK @SACryptoBull @NBA Stat padding for a record vs stat pad to look good just for the media. But both shameless.

@KnectJames @SACryptoBull @NBA Didn't Shai statpad against the Wolves last two weeks to get his 20 before checking out??

A classic "NEVERMIND" forced by Wemby! Defensive impact is just nuts.

Wemby ain’t done shit yet. No adversity, no playoffs, no hurdles, no haters. Just drafted to one of most prestigious franchises, handed some elite teammates, told to spend his rookie yr jacking threes. Now his first year in competitive run at 22 yrs old they want to hand him MVP, even tho his offensive numbers are significantly lacking compared to the field, came off the bench for a quarter of the season, doesn’t eclipse 30 mpg, on a team w a .667% winning % w/o him. No way do I want to see him win an MVP yet, let’s see some damn blood first at least

@HaterReport He got 1 block while stat padding. This the best NBA can show

Highlight reel of Wemby being tall on the official NBA website His PR is INCREDIBLE 😂🤣

Spurs were up 35 in the 4th and Wemby tried padding his stats for the MVP race but failed miserably 😭 4th quarter: 7 PTS on 1-8 FG 💀 He ended the game with 23 PTS on 7-21 FG

This is the best player in NBA LOLLL

@tearyboi @Alejandro_t9 @TheHoopCentral Has nothing to do with minutes. Even sga sits out the 4th when its up 30 💀

@Alejandro_t9 @TheHoopCentral Only played 30 minutes btw

Victor Wembanyama over the last 9 games: 25.8 PPG 12.1 RPG 4.0 APG 3.3 BPG 1.4 SPG 48.3% FG 29.9 MPG

@ORATOR_APK @SACryptoBull @NBA Playing in 4th to stat pad a 30 pt lead lol.

@SACryptoBull @NBA 23-15-6 and yes he will continue answering them questions

@mrpurpose0 @NBA Its not like he has even played a playoff game ?..

@NBA Wemby out here cooking legends in 82 games while your favorite "star" needs 10 seasons and a superteam just to sniff a ring. 😂

Which stat is the craziest???

@OPinfernonewac1 @zerohesis So wemby fans never even been to a court... makes sense

@zerohesis If he’s behind the backboard how is he not out of bounds?

he’s behind the fucking backboard wtf is this glaze ?

@TheHoopCentral 16 points before stat padding btw

Victor Wembanyama today: 23 Points 15 Rebounds 6 Assists 2 Steals 1 Block 7/21 FGM +14 +/- 31 Minutes

@j7zaza @CookedByScott U act like okc doesnt have just as big of a lead in a lot of games lol

Do y’all want the spurs to force him to play games where San Antonio are leading by 25-30? Such a dumb argument lmao. In close games ever since the calf strain was no longer a concern, he’s played 35-37 mins & showed out with 30+ pts on average, with the exception of the clippers (H) bc he got exactly 0 hours of sleep. Unless you want him to play full minutes no restriction while dealing with a fucking calf strain then you have nothing to complain about lmao

I already knew Wemby wasn’t playing as many minutes as other superstars but this is crazy lmao
