This squad plays team ball from top to bottom more than any other team in the league…but with the success of this team so far this season, Paolo deserves a bit of praise in this regard. Orlando is winning and he is the #1 player. He deserves to be in the conversation right now.

      Jokic, Embiid, Luka, Shai, Haliburton, Durant, Steph, Giannis, Fox, Tatum, Sengun, Lebron, Sabonis, Anthony Edwards, Brunson, Adebayo. All of these players I’d put for MVP before Paolo. But not all of them are even seriously in the conversation, especially Sengun and Brunson. To me, it really just depends on what u mean by “in the conversation”. If you’re outside of the top ten, I’m not counting u. Paolo isn’t even in the top 15.

        Paolo is the most valuable player on one of the most successful teams. He is in the conversation, as evidenced by us having a conversation about it.

        An arbitrary “top ten” might matter to you, but it isn’t stopping the conversation from happening.
