    Actually 7 assists and he was also the first player ever under 6'5 with at least 2,000 points, 500 assists, 100 steals, and 100 blocks in a season. Doesn't matter that he had one of the best seasons ever cause his team was absolute garbage. To be in the most valuable player conversation your team has to win at least 50+ games. However, was he the best player in the NBA at that time? Without a doubt.

    Def Jam dropped the ball with marketing him. He's got the talent and appeal to reach a broad audience. Def Jam just sucks at marketing and promoting artists. Look how long it took Jeremih to drop his last album. Cole gave Mih more exposure than Def Jam

    Yeah, just on here though. When Charlamagne and other radio/media folks talk about the leaders of the new school KRIT is never brought up

    Charles Hamilton was always overhyped to me, never could get into him. "Below The Heavens" was like "J. Cole of my high school days". And then the actual J. Cole came.

    Exactly Dubs been fine without him. Obviously they're better when he's there but not by much.

    LBJ, Kawhi, KD, Dame..any of those 4 are more valuable than Steph.

    Idk maybe I'm just hating on dude but he's like the 3rd or 4th best player in the league.

    Teams need to start putting big wings on Draymond and trap their pick n rolls. They get lazy on the switch and let him walk into 3s or leave their big man in no mans land while Steph makes em dance 30 ft from the basket.

    Kyrie n Love never been to the playoffs without big daddy Bron so I'm not sure they'd make it with Kyrie playing hero ball and no LBJ to take the pressure off. We know both are below average defenders. Lebron is just a game changer in every way imagineable, like a crazy athletic Magic Johnson. All that s--- is hypothetical though so we both might be wrong. Either way LBJ infinitely more valuable than Steph. If Bron was in GS they might've won 75+ lol.

    They were 73-9, of course is Curry getting the MVP. I don't understand all the fuss in here. 400+ 3s in a season, destroying teams, man goes supernova whenever he wants, like yesterday in OT. He did crazy stuff all season long, you can't take that away from him. I'm not even a Curry fanboy, but I'm a man enough to admit he killed the whole league this season.

    he misses a couple playoff games and all of a sudden people forget what he did ...

    thats why last night was perfect people had to be reminded

    but ye if you asked people who's mvp the day after the reg season ended no doubt 100% of sane people saying curry no doubt, like with music just easy for people to forget with a couple weeks of not seeing/hearing from someone

    Not true. They're really good though, but it's not difficult to make good music when you're only dropping 2 songs every 2 years.

    This is honestly the dumbest thing ever.. if u the best player nd u bring it every single night then u deserve recognition period.
    Basketball is a team game, its much harder to be consistently great on a terrible team than it is a good team
    Mainstream is all about money scheme. Who we gonna talk bout that brings in the most dickriders and bandwagons
    s--- just waters EVERYTHING down... including the league
    its why dudes wanna team up all the time. Whats the point of staying loyal nd building something if nobody gonna take the time to notice
    Fame brings accomplishment befroe accomplishment brings fame nowadays smh
    All im saying is if u good u good. basketball is such a team game that it really makes zero sense to negate someones accomplishment based on the level of play of the 10,11,12 dudes around him

    Edit: Anyway I got absolutely no love for lebron, but for dude not to get a single vote for MVP is f---in hilarious. A team w/ kyrie nd love leading it really supposed to do something come playoff time, dont see it.. if they even get there lmao
