@s_brickbeltra @The_BBall_Index This is so funny. Like how deep can the advanced stats go? 😭

@The_BBall_Index I've created a metric, called DAWG, that combines D-DARKO, D-LEBRON and D-EPM to simplify defensive evaluations.
Here's the top 10 for this season 👇

@The_BBall_Index Sorry but Jokic being NUMBER ONE in Defensive EPM, above Wemby arguably the best in the league
Tells you how untrustworthy these stats are and how much defensive rebounds factor into the rating
How else do you explain Jokic not just being number one but above Wemby?
English
@AbhayTiwaricool @The_BBall_Index Dpm is darko per minute not defense
English
@The_BBall_Index What is going on with jokic is his defensive impact better than wemby or just on off data skews this

@hymnduncan Its been tough couple days ngl 😮💨 miss when wemby was the golden boy.

We are embracing these egalitarianism that destroyed the world that used to exist. It will destroy us too, if we let it: theamericantribune.news/p/egalitariani…

Nothing has none more to discredit itself in recent years than the judiciary
And that includes the medical establishment during Covid, and Congress with all of its disgusting and craven antics

@BergmannMa64838 @KenHeLive Outside of a few analysts most expect lakers in the playoffs. Lets not get revisionist. And yes what wemby did is still more impressive
English
@steeled_strike @KenHeLive Expected 11 are 2nd expected 14 are third so do simple math 9 pos vs 11 climbed possitition
Yes luka is more impresive and betyer case for mvp

I stopped calling Luka Stan’s crazy when I took a step back and remembered I’ve closely followed most of LeBron James’ career and seen how media manipulation has damaged his reputation. Like it’s so clear 77 has a higher bar to clear than everyone else. He has a team ppl trolled most of the season as the 3 seed while putting up historic numbers and nobody outside the Laker fanbase cares.😂

Luka Doncic was ranked 3rd on the MVP ladder at the All-Star break Since then: — Most Player of the Week awards — Averaging 35/8/8 And somehow he has moved down to 4th on the latest rankings update??
English
Wemby’s arrogance is getting out of hand. He’ll be extremely unlikable soon
𝑱𝑱 𝑹𝒆𝒅𝒊𝒄𝒌 𝑴𝒖𝒔𝒆 ✪@RedickGotNext
This nigga went to the media and said “here’s why I should be MVP” and they actually rewarded him😭😭
English
Luka Dončić between February 13 and today:
35.2 PPG
7.8 RPG
7.8 APG
Victor Wembanyama between February 13 and today:
23.8 PPG
11.6 RPG
3.5 APG

@paydayfantasy Luka fans looking at these stats and not believing at least that victor is right there with luka is why they won’t be taken seriously
English
@DSosa20_ Well it’s a good thing that Player of the Month is decided by the entire month overall and not just one game
English
There is a possibility that Luka wins Player of the Month and is ranked LOWER on the MVP ladder than where he started the month 🤯
I just don’t know how the MVP award has any credibility if this happens
English
@PlayoffDude And yet still fully trust wemby more in the playoffs 😮💨
English
Luka Doncic literally carried the Mavs to the 2024 Finals, while Victor Wembanyama hasn’t even touched the playoffs yet and is still inexperienced on that stage.
Y’all got it man. 👍🏽

Isiah Thomas on Luka Doncic: "Wemby & Jaylen Brown put you in championship conversation. Luka puts you in 'Okay, we good in the playoffs...' But we're not talking about the Lakers winning a championship." @MichelleDBeadle | @boogiecousins | @ChandlerParsons | @TeamLou23

deadass hope the NBA gets overtaken by some other league elsewhere. there’s so much bias against players that genuinely deserve awards and that goes beyond MVP.
anyone who watches basketball wouldn’t expect a guy who averages 39/8/8 in his last 10 games with a 9-1 record to somehow drop from 2nd to 4th, not to mention this b2b WC POTW awards. you genuinely never see that.
a case could be made for wemby okay, but even then how can they justify jokic surpassing luka?
the media deserve all the slander they get bc they’re all unjust and bias fucks that only favour select players and hold prejudice agendas against luka bc he plays for “LA” or bc he’s fkn slovenian?
fuck this league

NBA.com’s updated MVP Ladder: 1. Victor Wembanyama 2. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander 3. Nikola Jokić 4. Luka Dončić 5. Jaylen Brown 6. Cade Cunningham 7. Jalen Johnson 8. Kawhi Leonard 9. Donovan Mitchell 10. Anthony Edwards

No matter where you currently stand on the MVP race, it’s a lot closer than you think.
Hardwood Paroxysm@HPbasketball
I had kind of put MVP away, and if you're an OKC fan it is fair to be like "how could one month change things" But also, my argument for Shai was that he wins the most and by the most, and Vic has the better net rating. So that pushes us back to box score. Shai's offensive box score is better than Victor's, Victor's defensive box score dwards every human alive. Shai leads in EPM, but I've always said EPM usually REFLECTS voter sentiment, it doesn't guide it. Jokic is better on offense, Victor on defense, but Shai's offense-defense cumulative impact is *arguably* greater.
English
@esochka @PolymarketSport Yeah was gonna say as the other guy did. Vic actually is 23-1
English
@PolymarketSport 2 losses in almost 2 months damn bro he's actually playing crazy good
English

On March 25th, San Antonio are 54-18
2 losses in 51 days.

A hooded Vic Wembanyama walked into the locker room carrying the big bluetooth speaker. He immediately cranks it up to play “Circle of Life” from the Lion King soundtrack. Rest of night, all that played were songs from soundtracks of animated films. Def heard something off Shrek.
