Game WORST -28 in a crucial Game six: The most fraudulent MVP in the history of the NBA.
The media should be ashamed of themselves as to what they did to Luka.
I really wonder what would Luka have to do to win the MVP if averaging 34-8-8, scoring title and most Player of month awards on a 53 win team is only good enough for 4th place. 34-9-10 got him 3rd place in Dallas. Feels like there's nothing he could do to win with these voters.
If LA media won’t even vote Luka MVP, who will?
Claire de Lune — 3rd
Dave McMenamin — 3rd
Jorge Sedano — 3rd
Khobi Price — 3rd
Ramona Shelburne — 4th
Melissa Rohlin — 4th
Law Murray — 5th
Chris Haynes — 5th
That’s how little real consideration he got.
For years voters said Luka needs to improve defensively to be MVP:
Luka improved a lot on defense this year and was nominated for Defensive Player of the Month in March, showing real improvement
He averaged 33/8/8, fixed the one issue voters had, and still wasn’t a finalist??
SGA last night:
- 0 points in the second overtime.
- Got the benched in the clutch.
- Finished -15 and went 6 for 21 in regulation.
And yet we’re told “you have to play both sides to win MVP.”
Faker.
