That title is crazy lmao

MVP by default doesn’t really hit the same 

Both Cade and Brown entered a bad stretch the moment MVP was actually possible, the lights might be too bright

Good God I need to get off this website. Jaylen Brown has +6000 odds to win MVP - if the “media”, the ones who freaking vote on the award, were really, actually pushing for him those odds would be a lot better.

The LVMVP

Jaylen brown and Tatum are both punished in their perception because they’ve had the misfortune to be drafted by a franchise that is competent

Brown has been pushed only by Bill Simmons and his guys, and not even all of them. Brown is hardly a 1st team all NBA imho, let alone top 3 or 4 in the MVP ballots…

Cade and Ant are easily better candidates, on top of them there is still Wemby.

Is Jaylen Brown actually the media appointed mvp front runner if Jokic and SGA are ineligible? I feel like every podcast I’ve listened to has Cade and Wemby ahead of him

Like is anyone besides Simmons pushing him?

This is just a sub full of haters

You really have to look at who theyve faced while hes been out lmao

Of course it’s a lakers fan lmao

We hating on 29/8/6 averages lol

With how often I’ve seen people on here posting about how much Brown sucks and how much Tatum sucks, I’m starting to wonder how the fuck we won a title two years ago.

Damn dude, are you saying he doesn’t have a shot at the “last 26 games specifically MVP award?”

Fuck that’s devastating OP, you ruined my day

I love how all these fans of bottom feeder franchises are posting this Jaylen brown advanced stat shit acting like we’d be better without him, yall wouldn’t know a winning basketball player if you saw one, brown is one of the most winning players in the entire league since he got to the league, but it must be a coincidence right?

Someone came to hate today

If you believe Brown is this undeserving of an MVP look, do you agree Mazzulla is COTY by a mile?

So they would have won the game if Brown didn’t play? Since he clearly sucks. Homie had to wait until the worst game the entire team played all year to post this garbage 😂

He’s been consistently ranked at like 5-6 in the MVP race anytime I’ve heard it on ESPN or most podcasts. Ahead of him have been Wemby and Cade, even according to the straw poll that so often has predicted the winner.

He’s currently at 40-1 odds, behind Cade and Wemby in addition to SGA & Jokic…

Having said that, what madmen are betting on Jokic at +475 odds when he is two games from being ineligible, regardless of deserving it or not. And he clearly is not a player who will risk his health for any individual award, much less one he has won multiple times.

And yet he’s still got a better ts% than Cade who has become this subreddit’s favorite if Jokic and SGA are out of the running lol.

Also I haven’t seen him higher than 4th in weeks.

It’s not easy to be the sole man carrying the offense whilst tryna be 2 way too I love how people trying to separate the Jays when it’s obvious they absolutely need eachother

Flair up, cowboy

Best player on a really good team.

Who knew you can have peaks and valleys in your season.

Some people are so salty when it comes to Celtics players. No he has no shot at MVP even if those two miss too many games. He’s steered the ship with Tatum out and the team is overachieving by most measures.

Damn man. Tom Brady really did a number on this country 😂

It seems like it should clearly be Wemby to me

The Spurs are only two games behind OKC in the loss column, the West is tougher, Wemby would be the DPOY, he’d have highest EPM of any eligible player, a pretty sizable gap on Cade and a huge gap on Brown, he dominates any of them in on-off(he beats SGA and ties Jokic)

I know he’s also capable of DQing, but he seems clearly third to me after the big two

why am I not surprised OP is a lakers fan…

This is the kind of hate posting that brought receipts. I love it.

If SGA and Joker aren’t eligible and it doesn’t go to Wemby we riot

Doesn’t matter, Jaylen Brown is still Luka Doncic’s father.

Ain’t nobody is talking about Jaylen Brown for MVP, you should be ashamed of this thread lol

I would respect you more if you made a legit hate thread

OP needs a life.

Holy heck

Wemby is definitely MVP 💯

I mean give it to Lamelo/Brandon Miller after last night, good golly miss molly, how DO you DO.

buzz buzz

Who appointed Brown as MVP? It has been Cade for a while.

how convenient you didnt bother to list the teams faced and their records.. hint hint, they are bottom dwellers

I’m pretty sure Cade is the “media-appointed MVP frontrunner if SGA & Jokic are ineligible” and his efficiency numbers are also not great.

I think Ant will make a late season MVP surge if the Wolves can keep winning.

hes a very good player, not mvp level player

nba discourse is pretty funny

If SGA can’t qualify it should go to Wemby

Brown should not be MVP. But what he’s doing for this Celtics team despite inconsistent efficiency is still “MVP caliber” play. I think he should be top 6 in MVP discussion. That’s not insignificant.

And the on off stuff doesn’t really mean much. Celtics bench is better than almost every other bench in the league so it’s no surprise that they have a higher net rating when he’s on the bench. And he usually misses entire games because we are playing back to backs or opponents that aren’t in contention, so it’s no surprise that we have a winning record without him either.

We absolutely need him this year. And efficiency usually goes down when usage rate goes up

Surely Cade is ahead of Brown for MVP? I’d probably put Edwards ahead too

Why not just give it to Cade if SGA and Jokic aren’t eligible. Also an inefficient volume scorer but at least they have the best record in the east and he averages almost 10 assist

Cade is the frontrunner if both are ineligible

The hateration is strong in this title lol

Let the hate flow through you

Brown as MVP is a joke 😅😅😅😅…

Not another one of these stupid ass threads

Why would they pick him

These are averages. League is played over 82 games. We need to see total output to test whether Brown or others deserve the MVP

I think looking at averages of someone playing 65 games vs another one playing 76 games is under valuing the fact the 76 games person did more during the season

Yes, we acknowledge he has dropped out of the race. Stop kicking us thanks.

I see what the numbers are saying in that short stretch, but looking at the rest of the team, it’s hard to understand how they could be better off without him in the long-run

He had that slump when everyone was making fun of his spray on hair but he’s bounced back from that.

30% from 3 could be better.

Keep hating. I’m not saying he deserves MVP but people acting like he’s Tobias harris.

Yeah he’s not being super efficient but he’s still doing what needs to be done to get this team wins. Celtics bench is much better than almost every other bench unit in the league so it’s no surprise at all that they have better efficiency when he’s out.

As is the case with Tatum discourse, efficiency is not everything. Celtics are extremely well run and well coached and that doesn’t take anything away from what brown is doing. This is the best season of his career when the team needs him most.

He’s no Cade Cunningham, but maybe one day…

Stats nerd alert.

Never mind what you see and what their record is lol.

Oh Reddit, never change.

If those guys become ineligible then Cade Cunningham has first dibs on MVP.

Jb or cade mvp will be bad

I have not heard anyone in the media say he should be the MVP if the other guys don’t qualify

Who did they play for those 7 games? And maybe Celtics bench is better than other teams benches?

Gotta be a New England media member posting such hate this early in the morning. Gotta applaud it.

Just give the MVP to the best player on the best team: Kon Knueppel.

I love JB and the C’s but like even I know he’s not MVP

I’m glad that even with Tatum out we still have a superstar that this sub hates for playing for Boston.

As a Celtic fan, Ive watched every game. Its possible the league has figured out Browns spots, he hasnt been hitting his mid range jumpers that were automatic earlier in the season. He could be tired. One thing he still cant do that well is dribble the ball.

So if he’s on the bench does that mean the Celtics bench is really good?

Stupid stat.

“We need to have a conversation about whether we need to have a conversation about whether Jaylen Brown deserves to be in the MVP conversation”

I don’t think JB is anointed MVP at all? Maybe I’m crazy but as a Celtics fan I haven’t even been seeing this get pushed heavily…

league in absolute shambles if Jaylen fucking Brown is an MVP candidate lmao
