No #1 pick should qualify for MIP that should go to a player who could hardly get on the floor then because an all-star/near all-star but since the NBA also treats the MIP as a comeback player of the year I think having your season cut almost in half due to injury it's kinda justified

I only say kinda cause like I said I think no #1 pick should be most improved they are supposed to eather be amazing at the start of just naturally will get better as time goes on cause they're that good

  1. He’s def not winning most improved. They like to spread the wealth. MVP and DPOY though let’s gooooooo.

  2. Love the way he’s playing, but I really think we need to chill with all the award talk. We’re not even 10% into the season

  3. Honestly, if he wins MVP, he deserves MIP. The leap from all-star to MVP is much harder to make than say replacement level to all star

  4. wtf is poly market? Cause it’s nowhere near what actual bookies are quoting

    He’s 2nd behind Shai for MVP, massive favourite for DPOY and +3600 (17th) for MIP 😂

  5. They need to put unambiguous qualifiers on who can be considered for MIP. Already great players making a big leap shouldn’t be considered. Exclude young players with less than 4 years experience, players with accolades like all star, players with good counting stats etc. 

    Players coming out of nowhere should take narrative precedence. Imo matas buzelis, a young lottery pick player who’s only in his second season, should not win the award even if he averages 30ppg for the season

  6. I’m not a fan of high draft picks that are almost certainly future stars winning MIP, but if Vic keeps up these numbers he deserves it. All-star numbers to legit MVP candidate numbers is a huge jump.

  7. Sorry, but 1st overall picks should never win MIP in their 3rd year. It’s for a dude in his 9th year who makes his first all star team or some shit. Lame

  8. Looks like fake news, DPOY is a wrap if he’s healthy but MVP is gonna be a real fight and MIP is a no go.

  9. I’ll be impressed when he wins all 3 next year while winning a chip and putting up Wilt numbers.

  10. Would love for Wemby to win all 3 however Luka can take MVP and Austin Reeves or Giddey can take MIP
