DRose Getting The Shaft On Projected MVP Voting

[Utahbullsfan]

NBA Winter Forecast -- Most Valuable Player - ESPN

I can completely understand the arguments for a few guys in front of him but DAMN

 

[RamiTheBullsFan]

Griffin
Wade
'melo
Z-Bo

all ahead of Rose... that is a joke.

 

[Uman85]

Blake Griffin...no.
Zach Randolph...no.
Carmelo...no.
Wade...ehh.

 

[RamiTheBullsFan]

Blake Griffin...no.
Zach Randolph...no.
Carmelo...no.
Wade...ehh.

There is no way in hell that Wade is going to help guide the Heat to more wins than Rose will for the Bulls. I'm not saying that Rose is a better player than Wade, but the Bulls are WAY more dependent upon Rose to win basketball games than the Heat are upon Wade.

LeBron >>> *

I agree, but couldn't the same sentiment be applied when talking about LeBron getting the MVP? Wade and LeBron are equally as important to that team IMO. Take away one or the other and they aren't the best team in the East. For that reason alone I wouldn't vote for either one for the MVP.

Not last year. Same concept as Wade. If your team isn't all that dependent upon your presence on your team then it hurts your chances.

If the Bulls' record is anywhere close to Miami's again then Rose will get more votes than LeBron.

Well if Rose plays the way he has thus far...they are perhaps justified.

 

[inactiveuser1]

Oh yeah I saw this earlier it's ridiculous

That's my thoughts.

You guys don't think Melo should be ahead? Why not?

 

[nwfisch]

How about they play 30 games before we begin whose getting shafted. Rose isn't entitled to MVP discussion just because he won one.

 

[nwfisch]

You guys don't think Melo should be ahead? Why not?

To me, there can't be 2 MVP candidates from the same team. For me, Amare is the MVP on the Knicks.

With the relatively small sample size of this season, Melo would be ahead.

Come on..................

 

[RamiTheBullsFan]

One bad game by Rose means that 'melo is going to end up more valuable than him?

I am going to count how many bad games 'melo has this year.

 

[bbaker]

They still haven't even played 3 games yet. These projections mean nothing. I don't think D-Rose wins MVP this year, but I also don't think he finishes outside the top 3 in voting.

 

[CODE_BLUE56]

i dont care if it is the beginning of the season z-bo tied with rose? really

blake griffin could be really good with cp3...but cp3 is and would be the MVP of the clippers...without him they dont make the playoffs imo

griffin needs to work on his defense too

 

[zack54attack]

Come on..................

Melo arguably is the best all-around scorer in the League.

 

[RamiTheBullsFan]

Melo arguably is the best all-around scorer in the League.

So? The other starting forward on his team can make up for a lot of the scoring 'melo brings. He is nowhere near as valuable as Rose. And he's not as good of a player as Rose either. Those days are over.

 

[CODE_BLUE56]

Melo arguably is the best all-around scorer in the League.

too bad his defense sucks

i dont think he's the best player on his team
