So, I mentioned it at the beginning of the season, but I actually have a formula to measure season performance, so I plugged in Noah, Lebron, and Durant to see who should get the MVP according to my formula:

Noah - 37.84
Lebron - 41.89
Durant - 47.48

So, to put that in perspective, the highest value I've rated in the "modern" era (since they started tracking turnovers in 1978) is Jordan's '88 season when he managed a 57.34.
The average for all MVP seasons from 1978-2013 is a 46.96. Anything below a 43 I consider a "bad" MVP year...anything above 51 is a great year. Obviously all MVP seasons are great, but I wanted a way to measure great seasons against each other.

Durant's 47.48 puts him above average for MVPs and clearly should be this year's winner. Not that anyone is disagreeing with that...I just wanted an excuse to use my formula.

So you work for ESPN's shitty formula creation department?

Why would you say that? If it was ESPN's formula, Monta Ellis or some shit whould be the MVP.

Dwight Howard should've been awarded two free throws, NBA says. As it turned out, Howard fouled out and Blazers secured Game 1, 122-120.
What? I mean, why would the NBA send this out? Where is the tweet about the travel that caused Lopez to foul out or the obvious missed travel call on Garcia that ended up with him on the line? Prepare for some more shitty officiating in game 2!

I'd be shocked if it wasn't the same story tonight with the Warriors/Clippers game.

Lucky shot doesn't make him the best player. Doesn't even have a ring. LeBron 1 KD 0 head to head in the Finals
