The Battle Bar, Our Wretched Hive of Scum and Villainy

Lol, anyone can predict accurately if they're allowed to change their predictions mid-game.

I didn't change my predictions on who'd win, Kek.

How's that going?

Good socially, decent academically. I can definitely do better than a 3.9 GPA. My interests are in sports analysis and writing. Drugs here and there. Girls here and there. Kind of typical shit.

Drugs are wack doe

Drugs actually help in balancing social life and school. Adderall and acid for school, weed for social life. Acid can also be used socially tho

Fair enough.

Neph's learning. 🙂

Who'd you place as 2nd and 3rd runner up for MVP?

2. Kawhi Leonard

3. Lebron James

An Skillz timing 🙂

Why not Westbrook at 3rd?

Because:

A) Lebron carried an ultimately inferior team to more wins.

B) Westbrook isn't even the best or most valuable player on his own team.

He has all around better stats than LeBron besides points and FG% tho

Westbrook also turns the ball over quite a bit more. It's just that Westbrook's advanced statistics are so negligibly superior to Lebron's that it doesn't make up for my above reasons:

Westbrook: 27.6 PER, .245 win shares/48, 10 BPM

Lebron: 27.5 PER, .242 win shares/48, 9.1 BPM

Also, I've changed my mind and have decided that Lebron and Durant are 1A and 1B for 3rd place.

Yeah he has +1.5 TO / 100 POS, but also 5.3 more assist. Also the Cavs record is not a whole lot better than OKC's. Only 2 more wins and they didn't have a 73-9 team in their conference.

Westbrook has better WS and WS/48.

You're completely right. Not trying to take away from Westbrook, but he's lucky to be playing beside the best scorer in the league.

Which is funny because the Cavs actually had a better record against the West than the East, as did the Thunder.

Which I already highlighted in my previous post. The difference is too irrelevant.

I still don't see why LeBron is better when in almost every way Westbrook has better stats.

Better =/= most valuable. If that was true, Michael Jordan, Shaq, David Robinson, and Lebron would all have the last 30 MVP's or so.
