Pod #20: 2015-16 NBA MVP Race

The 2015-16 NBA MVP race is underway, and the media has thrown around a few names. Make no mistake, Steph Curry and his other-wordly numbers make him the easy candidate for MVP. The only thing stopping him from winning is a huge shooting slump (unlikely) or possibly a big injury (more likely). If not for Curry, this conversation would about Paul George and LeBron James, both of whom are putting up big seasons. Other players that I discuss are Russell Westbrook, Kawhi Leonard, and Kevin Durant. I also talk about why Anthony Davis and James Harden (2 MVP candidates before the season started) are both struggling, and are not even in anyone’s top 10.
