This team is averaging 131 points per game in the last 7. Just unreal level of play on offense right now.

A sizeable portion of the national media are there to sell the big market teams and players. It's that simple.
Also the NBA investigation doesn't help.
I don’t think that’s it. Lowe was talking about how winning factors in to all NBA and that’s why he has Luka(Dallas) and Ja(Memphis) on the first team.
Winning matters but apparently not for Booker

A lot of these national media people like flash and not substance. It's the flavor of the day.
Personally I don't care what they say except:
Devin Booker should be MVP.
Mikal Bridges should be the Defensive Player of the Year.
And Monty Williams should be Coach of the Year.
This is where their opinions hurt.
I'd gladly bet 1 of those 3 things happen, possibly 2 of 3, but there's no way all 3 will happen. Monty and Mikal being the most likely.
I'd say Monty is a lock. Not just because of how hot the team has been all year but also to make up for last season's decision.
I'd say Mikal is a lock for 1st team All Defense also but a toss up for DPOY.
Another you forgot, Cam Johnson should be Sixth Man of the Years but its unlikely he'll even finish top 3.

I agree, the Suns will be lucky to get two out of three.
With Cam Johnson missing so much time, it's hard to see him winning the Sixth Man award.

Booker is not coming close to winning MVP. It’s just a fact. He’s probably behind Tatum who’s behind 3 other guys.
However it would be a travesty if he doesn’t make all-NBA. The fact that smart basketball ppl have to have do gymnastics to find him a spot is asinine.
The guard locks are Booker, Paul, Luka, Ja and Steph. I’m counting Tatum and DeRozan as wings.

Booker, Ja, Giannis, Luka, Embiid on 1st team
Paul, Steph, KD, Tatum, Jokic for 2nd Team
Trae Young, Mitchell, DeRozen, Lebron, Gobert for 3rd Team
Wouldn't surprise me to see LeBron moved up to 2nd team, swapped with KD. Hopefully they vote Luka as a forward to make it all work because there are plenty of deserving guards but forwards is a tougher choice, especially for 1st team because the Lakers and Nets haven't won enough to add KD or LeBron there and I'd be surprised to see Tatum ahead of both of those guys.
If Booker played in LA or NY he would be the GOAT already.
But he plays in Phoenix where the Mens penises are easily 5 inches longer then the rest of the world. And they hate us because they anus.
Let's say we let them have this one.
And with that I realize that maybe I drank a little too much tonight, good night.

Honestly if the Lakers don’t win their two play-in games thus missing the playoffs Lebron shouldn’t even make 2nd team.
I agree. He's leading the league in scoring and at his age that deserves some recognition, which 3rd Team should provide, but I have a feeling the voters will largely ignore the Lakers implosion this year and their record. That's why I said it wouldn't surprise me to see him elected to 2nd team.

Ja Morant will be re-evaluated in a couple of weeks.

Get him back soon, the league can't handle that team without him.

Yeah. I don't want to face the Griz without Morant. They are so much better without him.
I called this with Ja back at the All Star Game. The league falls for this ball dominant guard every year and they always break down.

Never believe what you read in a custody case. No one knows the truth here until the investigation is done. Until then, I know enough to know I don't know.Richaun Holmes accused of Domestic Violence.

I will give Holmes the benefit of the doubt until proven otherwise.
I love Ja highlights but he scares the stuffing out of me the way he throws that lil body around.
Its like a Chihuahua running around Great Danes
Same with Trey Young
