this is v interesting and yeah i want to see hardens chart this year

everybody saw this right -

think mvp is curry's to lose - writers like him, warriors are the story of this season. it's been a two man race all season (davis was sorta in the conversation but it was one of those 'what does mvp mean?' conversations when he came up, ppl just discussed how it could or couldn't be him but never really got around to arguing yes it was him), and i've usually heard the 'the rockets w/o harden are more fucked than the warriors w/o curry -> harden is more valuable' argument but i think there's alot of 'i can't vote for someone whose defense is that poor mvp no way no how' types to counterbalance that plus i think westbrook's votes are gonna come from ppl who might've voted harden. would guess right now it'll be 1) curry 2) harden 3) westbrook 4) lebron 5) davis.

AD might very well be the best player overall, harden prob the most valuable to his team, curry meanwhile is a great combination of the two plus warriors plus generally seeming like a chill human so yea it's most likely his to lose

Harden is #1 in VORP and Win Shares, and has more defensive win shares than Curry. AD has the highest PER followed by Westbrook and Curry.

Ricky :\

harden dribbling the shot clock out and getting blocked then not getting back on D is why he shd not be allowed to be mvp

Bulls just announced a meniscus tear in Derrick Rose's right knee

yikes

one day i will tell my children the sad tale of poor derrick rose

can't believe it, dude has no luck

basketball twitter reacting exactly as if he is dead rn

Marc Stein ‏@ESPNSteinLine 2m2 minutes ago
Just incredibly sad and sickening news out of Chicago. Derrick Rose was playing his best ball in ages just before All-Star break. No words

Mike Prada ‏@MikePradaSBN 2m2 minutes ago
Derrick Rose :-(

Why is sport so cruel sometimes? I know there's no answer

Kurt Helin ‏@basketballtalk 5m5 minutes ago
What do we need to sacrifice to appease the basketball injury gods? This is just unfair.

except coach nick who has a plan

BBALLBREAKDOWN ‏@bballbreakdown 4m4 minutes ago
Awful, unprecedented, needs a functional movement coach RT @mikev4040: @bballbreakdown Derrick rose with another knee injury, thoughts?

oh just a functional movement coach, no prob

let him go coach nick let him go

rough couple of days for the city of chicago i mean first their cops are torturing people and now derrick rose's knee is hurt again

need to sacrifice rahm to the basketball gods prob

if every ILH user donates a small portion of knee cartilage/tissue/muscle/bone I think we could make this work for rose

After witnessing Brandon Roy's and Greg Oden's career arcs, all I can say is that shit happens and you just learn to live with it. It should be x100 easier for a fan to adjust to this Derrick Rose injury shit than it will be for Rose to adjust. After all that investment of time and effort, his hoops career is now chopped liver.

i know he cannot hear bc he is dead but has anybody suggested to derrick rose that he should maybe stop playing basketball

sacrificing rahm emmanuel on an infernal altar and harvesting his knees also a solid idea

lol "brandon roy" is trending rn wonder why hmm

lol oh no

more like #GiveDRoseAChance rite

#ohNo

sportscenter literally acting like he died

i think he died not sure

"it's possible we may have already seen the best of derrick rose" oh really guys b/c i totally planned on him putting up better than 25/4/8 while playing 81 games somewhere down the line.

its possible derrick rose is dunking on jimi hendrix right now

now some guy who looks like a professional wrestler on his night off (but is apparently a doctor) is saying he might be just fine, this is cruel and unusual to chicago ppl

man wtf do you do if you're the bulls now?

Trade for Melo!

Melo isn't good at basketball

rose jeez. is it a bad tear or the scope it and be back in 3-4 weeks type of tear?

supposedly not as bad as the last one

i guess thats something. maybe back for the playoffs or are they saying he's done for the year?

won't know til after surgery but I can't see him coming back

poor dude :(
