Therefore, even if Luka will not qualify for the playoffs but his team has improve a lot this season, that would still help him to achieve his MVP award.

I saw one video that if Mavericks doesn't clinch to the playoffs, then the chances of him to be on the MVP race will be removed but on how he and his team I don't think that they will not clinch this year. I'm excited too on how they will play on the playoffs since we haven't seen them go to the playoffs for some time already Cheesy

His first win as a Blazer, yes he played well on the road and he helped the team to get the win with a huge margin. I hope that he will play the same in his next games so that they can go over 500 already. They have a lot of shooters and a good defensive line up with Whiteside which is we know a good blocker.

Nets won against Cavs 108-106, Pistons won against Magic 103-88, Pacers beat Grizzlies 126-114, Twolves beat Hawk 125-113, Celtics won against Kings 103-102, Heat won against Hornets 117-100, Raptors won against 76ers 101-96, Bucks defeated Jazz 122-118, Lakers won again against the struggling Spurs 114-104 and Thunder won against the Warriors 100-97.

So many games happened this day Cheesy

Finally after the struggle, it looks like Carmelo Anthony have already found a way to contribute well to the team.
he is more consistent today compared to his previous games, and the win against the Bulls which they clearly dominated, he lead the scoring with 25 points.

if he will continue to play this way, this Blazers team will have a lot of scoring option, and if one of the stars struggle, there are others who can always step up like Melo, I think I'll stop criticizing him as he showed that he is not a liability to the team.

Yes and then next game might not be good and everyone will jump down his throat saying he doesnt have it anymore, then he will have a good game, etc etc. That's sports. Basketball cant be judged interns of a couple games. I can find you any superstar that has a bad couple games. Doesnt mean they suck

People are surely expecting that Melo will perform the same next game or even better as he showed up that he is still capable.
I was suppose to be Lillard that will be scoring more or CJ but the fact that Melo has given more freedom to shoot the ball, this means the management trusted him.

Tried to watch every move he makes and all are in good shape when it comes to offense.
His feet are moving so fast whenever the ball is passed unto him.

There is still a real problem though. If this team want to compete better in the playoffs they would need Melo to do defense.
They won because of Whiteside and Hood defensive effort but Melo lacks that.
If he doesn't have the ball his feet is like on ice.

It is like a practice game when he does defense. He runs to the other side even if the ball is still in the air.
That kind of body will be a great help guarding big men.

But all this mvp talk 10-15 games in is rediculous.

This is normal for the fans to assume and speculate who will be the MVP for this season although it's still early to think about it. Perhaps, we, the fans are overwhelmed about these performances made by our idols that why we can't help ourselves but to say that they are good to consider as the MVP.

Exactly because most of us didn't expect this kind of showing from Doncic.

Prior to the opening of the regular season, this kid is not even part of the MVP discussion, so with what is happening now, we can't blame the fans if they are surprise and overwhelm at the same time, and this kid's attitude is lovable, young and humble, fans like that.

Though Luka is a sure contender but he has to carry the Mavs to the playoffs to prove his worth.

I think getting into playoffs is not really imperative for a player to become an NBA regular season MVP as playoffs is another thing and could be an extra if a team could reach in the playoffs.

I made a quick research on how regular season MVP is judge, here's what I found.

https://basketballjoe.com/articles/mvp-criteria-three-branches

Quote

There are three primary components that come into play when determining the most worthy recipient of MVP:
team success, individual statistics, and media narratives.

Therefore, even if Luka will not qualify for the playoffs but his team has improve a lot this season, that would still help him to achieve his MVP award.

Opportunities are still open because the game is still long especially they just beat the Rockets! The competition in the Western does look very difficult but I predict Luka Doncic will bring his team at least to the playoffs, that's where the real match takes place

Of course, I know they can do it

. It's just a playoffs. I mean, there are weaker teams below them so I don't worry at all unless he got a sudden injury which lead his team to a misery (*knock on the wood Grin

). Mavericks is currently 11-5 securing the 4th spot and they can advance closer to the top if they win more games. But oops! Their next game would be against Clippers, what a challenge! Let's find out if they be able to get the 3rd spot fall down again.

Even if its still 10-15 games but the race for mvp has just started. So talking about whose going to be the MVP this season is a hot topic to tackle since there are those players who's surpass everybody. Of course if they want to remain in the MVP race, they should show they deserve to be one every single game they played.

As they said, it's still early to discuss on who will be the MVP bro, anything may happen to MVP contenders like injury that may affect their chance of winning it. Though Luka is a sure contender but he has to carry the Mavs to the playoffs to prove his worth.

Once they reach in the playoffs and Luka still maintain his stats, then we an assume that he will win the MVP award.
Lebron for sure is not after that anymore, he just want to bring his team to the championship again as that is more fulfilling to him than become an MVP.

Harden maybe just keep trying and trying but its hard for his team to enter in the NBA Finals, he has to beat Bron and Leonard which is hard task when he and westbrook alone are mostly in charge of the production.

Lebron is great and all but he has won already and for some reason league doesn't want to give players too many MVP anymore, they used to but not anymore, like Harden was sure fire MVP last year but they wanted to give it to Giannis, Lebron definitely deserves it but I don't know if the league will be looking over the fact he has won MVP before already and give him one more.

Not sure where did you get this reason, if LeBron will be healthy and he keeps playing the way he's doing right now he will get the MVP. There's no reason to doubt that, if he deserves the title the league should give it to him.. there's no rules regarding to how many MVP titles that you can win as long as you are playing with supremecy,you should get the award.

That's right, we have seen multiple MVP's players in the past. The good thing is that this MVP race for this year are going to be great as there are players like Luca who have enter into the discussions. So it will be tough for Giannis. Harden and Lebron and Doncic currently are in the top position. But still lots of games maybe we can see someone who will pop up like Paul George and Kawhi Leonard.

Agree with the, it doesnt matter how many mvps he has. If they are the most valuable player then they will win it. Harden was not a surefire mvp over Giannis. Giannis was deserving last year as well. But all this mvp talk 10-15 games in is rediculous. So much of the season to play out before that is even a thing.

Harden has a 40 ppg season, that is not something you can just forget. Luka will not be MVP because of 2 reasons, one he is too young and when a player is in his sophomore season there is rarely any look towards him by the NBA and even tho it is a wrong thing and they should look at Luka and how awesome he is playing, they usually don't (this is coming from "all star" selection because not many second year players have played at MVP level, maybe just d.rose). Second reason and most important one is that Dallas will not be a top three team when the league ends, which is why I think Luka will not be MPV.

Lebron is great and all but he has won already and for some reason league doesn't want to give players too many MVP anymore, they used to but not anymore, like Harden was sure fire MVP last year but they wanted to give it to Giannis, Lebron definitely deserves it but I don't know if the league will be looking over the fact he has won MVP before already and give him one more.

It's too early to tell for us to be predicting who will be the league MVP by the end of the season, the NBA teams haven't even played a fourth of their games yet so we don't know who who will be outperforming who and who will maintain a superb stats by the end of the season. I do agree with what you are saying about Luka Doncic but these guy is literally averaging a triple double each game and no one in the league can even match him not even Lebron or Harden can match what he is doing right now, if the voters which are analyst, sport casters, and announcers will disregard this a lot of people will get mad at them and they will certain receive a backlash against them especially when they make this look like that they don't want another foreigner winning the title.

He becomes payers who quickly adapt and learn quickly. lucky Mavericks can have a classy young player like Luka Doncic

Luka Doncic despite being he's being honed at a young age and there's more way to go for this young superstar. Mavs sure picked a decent player and that's him.

LeBron>Luka>James>Giannis.

More or less, it looks that way right now. Of course everything can change throughout the whole season, though I wouldn't be surprised if the MVP ladder looks that way after 82 games of regular season.

Currently, it's like this but yep, the season is still a long way to go for these superstars.

I wont let go this one. Just like what they did with Dirk.

That game against the Rockets, they also equal the record of the most halftime points.
They are now in 5 streak winning games and their last three games point was 142,143 and 137 against the Rockets.
Those are freaking high numbers.
Their offensive power is getting really high, KP and Tim are making a lot of free shots thanks to Luka.
