He probably won’t win because of his volume stats but anyone with eyeballs can see he is a top 5 player this year and he isn’t 5.

He doesnt have the counting stats. Itās hard to make a case for a 24 ppg guy to mvp when
-Jokic and Luka practically average a triple double
-Giannis puts up Shaq numbers
-Shai has 31 6 and 6
The MVP race loves box score stuffers, and Kawhi simply shows his impact outside of it.
Imo heād have the scoring numbers if the refs actually gave him the whistle he deserves. One of the best/highest volume driving scorers itl yet only 4 fta per game. But thatās a topic for a whole post

Kawhi could continue this year for the next 40 games, have a legit healthy season, and bust into the top 5 easily
Right now heās playing like the Finals MVP

Kawhi is like an old school star who doesnāt play for the stats. I bet he learned from Tim Duncan a lot. We donāt have many players like him nowadays, not to mention at this level.

If he averages 25+ on 50/40/90, Clippers get 1st seed, and other teams or player underperform then itās possible. However, itās all about narrative so Kawhi needs MVP games consistently rather than his efficient 25 points
