atm10 Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 So the league MVP hasn't played in 7 weeks but was given the award because of all his regular season triple doubles. All done while playing a regular season that most would agree doesn't matter. James meanwhile will be the only player ever to average a triple double in the finals...got it!

Jackie Ed Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Isn't the MVP award given to best player in the regular season and the NBA FINALS MVP given to the best player in the FINALS? I'm failing to see an argument Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HammerTime Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 That's why it's a regular season award. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackie Ed Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 You average a triple double for an entire season seems like he's the only one to do it. Makes him the best player in the league this year to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PurplePride92 Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Triple doubles are overrated I guess. I mean, LeBron is averaging a triple double in the finals and just like Westbrook he won't get a ring either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atm10 Posted June 13, 2017 Author Share Posted June 13, 2017 Russell Westbrook is easily the regular season MVP. Because he got a team that was in the conference finals a year before back to playoffs and won one game? Ok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
