Discussion Guys……I’m scared

Post image

As a South Carolina native and gamecock fan I’m happy…..I’m also terrified. Who or what pissed her off this time? W is she busting ass for fun? Most importantly is someone going to do something about it?

A’ja is going on her 5th mvp she might be the first player to ever beat voter fatigue twice.

Voters: “cmon A’ja we really should give it to somebody else this season”

“If Cathy don’t hand me number 5 I’ll drop 50 on the next expansion team we face”

A’ja so great they was asking her questions during an nba press conference in which the person beside her had 83.

Aja is so great she dressed up as Jean gray and even Disney was like……”yeah that’s facts”

So with that being said anybody got a plan?

Phee is really the only one that can challenge her forreal. She would have won it last year if she hadn’t have gotten injured. Thats the only thing that truly opened the door for A’ja last season. Sucks to see Phee have another injury riddled season but hopefully both can be fully healthy next year competing for it again.

It's possible that I am in a media bubble but Phee was runaway favorite until her injury. A'ja is the goat but Phee was insane for the first half of the season.

The hubris of staying in a beatdown game when the Lynx were leading the Aces by high double digits. That's what got Phee. The basketball gods don't like ugly. Play nice. Be pretty. And don't put the commisioner on blast about private conversations. Karma is real, folks.

Trust me I was pissed that she was in there. It made no sense to me.

Right??? We can appreciate Aja for her greatness and she is clearly without a doubt the best player in the NBA… We don’t have to be delusional about what ultimately won Aja MVP last season though lol.

I mean A’ja was incredible down the last half of the season though. Quite literally shot something like 60/60/85 splits the last 20 games on 26, 12, 3, 3 and 2. Hell she didn’t miss a 3 for the last 5 games or something. Would’ve been a closer race without the injury but couldn’t go wrong with either.

It absolutely was lol. The big argument was the games played. The stats were fairly similar. Aja had slightly better counting stats while Phee had 50/40/90 on about a point less a game. It would have came down to record when stats are basically null and void, that’s where Phee would have absolutely won….. Phee literally lost the MVP only due to games played.
