Just announce it during the break between the playin and round 1 it isn’t that hard the votes are already in lol 😂

They want the shot if him accepting the trophy while Wemby looks on

Should have announced it at 5am

Adam Silver is bad at his job?

Piss off with your “10 o’clock” prem start times.. **cries on west coast**

Ohh lookit the scientists over here.

You got me there.

Bruh

They did this shit last year with Jokic and had us wait till after that series finished

This is the funniest part in all this. Are they that scared to give it to Joe lmao. Either that or JB won so they’re waiting after game 7.

Isn’t the MVP usually the last award mentioned?

Just in, a sports news agency just broke breaking news about sports. More at 6 pm!

or bed rotting as i am at 10am 🤣

Reading this from the shitter, you spying on me????

Somebody investigate this man. He knew exactly what I was doing

for my own sanity, i have to believe that 99.9% of the world doesn’t care about shit like this and only weird redditors do

The absolute worst was Woj spoiling the Banchero pick for no reason. First time in years we were going to have a first overall pick where we didn’t know for sure who would go #1 and his idiot face pops on the screen laughing at all of us while he spoiled the pick.

Yeah that’s why I edited lol

But the point is this being announced like the day before Conference finals begin is like the worst of both worlds essentially

All the other awards have been given out closer to when they used to, and it’s all not far away enough like when they tried their corny ass awards show, the peak of which was Bill Russell telling every other living great center he could kick their ass (RIP)

I know the Luka thing put them in a weird spot this year, but we literally did this last year too, so that’s not an excuse either

Idk, it’s just dumb

It’s kinda weird of him to post it like this when it’s finally going to be announced. We all knew it was happening. But damn relax. It’s like somebody in the audience jumping up and shouting Michael B Jordan wins Best Actor!! right before they announce the winner.

Gotta get the good “backrow baptist” spots early so you don’t have to sit at the front with the little old ladies.

They should announce these early so that the winners can celebrate and have press conferences at home. I miss those.

It’s just some fake outrage

Nobody should be surprised lol

I think the stupidity was on full display when Jokic got his 22 MVP after they were already eliminated. Just makes sense to announce these awards when everyone is still playing.

After it made him rich enough to retire

Yeah it’s messed up to say but just his general demeanor is straight up off-putting.

Has zero charisma compared to his counterparts in the NFL and MLB

A little pot calling the kettle black, eh?

I’d do Shams job for the £££ it entails.

Came across as soulless and empty because Shams is soulless and empty.

His NFL counterpart Schefter’s tweet when Dwayne Haskins passed can’t be surpassed. Dude called him a bust while announcing his death

Was it Schefter who had to mention the fact that Haskins was a draft bust when reporting on his death? These guys are not human

Can change that to 99.9%.

Shams is 32 making $15m+ a year

Edit: it’s 3-4m, idk where I got $15m from.

I was high when I said that!

Nah him breaking the Trump has COVID news first was a historically hilarious thing and definitely mattered

Because he’s convinced his bosses that being first matters

You think that the executives of a news outlet needed a reporter to tell them that being first to report a story is good?

If the game today was on espn he would not have done this.

The Luka trade was absolutely groundbreaking news and he was the only one reporting on it and everyone thought it was fake.

This is why Shams still has a career. There’s other reporters that can break small tidbits but Shams is the go to for the shocking moments

Genuinely why do yall care that it’s his job to report stuff first. This does not impact you in any way, shape or form. If you wanna be angry that it’s a thing in the first place go ahead but there’s so many people in these comments upset at Shams directly for no reason lol

Wemby has one of those “unhinged serial killer photo collection” boards but it’s only pictures of Chet

We’re going to start a psyop to make it look like Chet won MVP, just to unleash angry Wemby

yea i don’t understand why people have latched onto the idea that wemby is going to go crazy because he didn’t win mvp lol

Source?

The 3rd. Ajay Mitchell.

I’m not treating as a given that he’ll definitely make 65 games regularly for the rest of his career, but otherwise yeah.

I doubt wemby consistently plays enough games to get it

Yes, he’s on year 2 of being the greatest and just building his legacy from there. I’m here for it.

PG is pretty damn important too. Got you SGA and all those picks

call him by his proper name, triple double cocaine bear

Oh you are preaching to the choir! Poku, baze, dieng gang stand up!

Blowing a 3-1 lead to the Sixers is so funny

The way he glazes Jokic, its his third in the last few weeks tbh

BREAKING: Game 7 of the Detroit-Cleveland series will take place at 8PM EST tonight. The Pistons will be hosting, sources tell ESPN.
