ESPN predicts FMVP ownership this season: Jokic is fifth, Edwards and Brunson tie for second

With the deepening of the NBA playoffs, there are still five teams in the league that are fighting for the championship. There are only 4 teams left tomorrow morning, because the Thunder and the Nuggets will have a tiebreak battle in the early morning of tomorrow. The Nuggets have experience, but their physical fitness has reached the limit. The Thunder are talented, but lacks experience. It is hard to say who can win the series. Today, the US media ESPN predicted the FMVP ownership of this season based on the probability of each team winning the championship and the performance of their players. Let's take a look at it?

Tenth Chet +7500

Chet's performance in the playoffs was unsatisfactory. Although he had good singles and off-ball ability and strong blocking ability, his shortcomings were also obvious. His confrontation ability was too poor. He could not withstand the strong inside and forward line at all. If only the help from the offensive end was considered and the Thunder won the championship, Chet did have the opportunity to compete for the FMVP. He has averaged 16 points, 9.6 rebounds and 2.3 blocks per game so far in the playoffs.

Ninth Javi +5000

Jiewei performed very well in the first round of the series, but his performance in the second round was not satisfactory, especially in the two key games against the Nuggets. His performance was very good. However, one of the advantages of Javi is that he can handle the ball. He can serve as the team's ball-holding core, unable to score points, and can also send assists. His defense is also good, and he has a positive effect on the team. He has averaged 19.2 points, 5.4 rebounds, 5.6 assists, 1.5 steals, and 0.8 blocks.

Eighth Towns +4000

Knicks will face the Pacers in the second round. Towns and the Knicks have great hopes to reach the finals, but the Knicks relies too much on Brunson, and the team's ball rights are basically in his hands. Towns sometimes becomes a blue-collar worker and runs back and has no ball rights at all. Therefore, the probability of Towns winning the FMVP is smaller. To date, Towns can average 19.8 points, 11.3 rebounds and 1.1 assists per game so far, and this season is indeed even harder.

Seventh Sika +3000

Sika is one of the most underrated players in the active league. It is not without reason that he was able to help the Raptors win the championship. Sika is comprehensive enough and is considered a weakened version of Antetokounmpo. The reason why she said this is because Sika is both offense and defense. He can switch to multiple positions and play the ball and attack very stably. The key is that he has the ability to handle the ball. He is a perfect second in command. He has averaged 18.8 points, 6.2 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 0.9 steals so far in the playoffs.

Sixth Randall +2200

Randall was put to his previous level. He said that he could not make it to such a list, but now it is different. Randall played at the level of a top second-in-commander. He relied on his outstanding performance to help the team eliminate the Lakers and the Warriors. Zhu Meng said bluntly that Randall was one of the most difficult players he encountered in his career. Randall averaged 23.9 points, 5.9 rebounds, 5.9 assists and 0.9 steals per game so far, which is very comprehensive.

Fifth Jokic +1000

Jokic, as the number one player in the active league, is his ranking so low? The main reason for this is that the outside world is not optimistic about the Nuggets being able to reach the finals. If they enter the finals and the Nuggets win the championship, then Jokic will undoubtedly be the first candidate for FMVP, but it is too difficult for the Nuggets to win the championship in this situation, and they are too tired. Jokic averaged 26.7 points, 13 rebounds, 8.1 assists, 2.2 steals, and 0.9 blocks per game in the playoffs.

Fourth Halliburton +825

If the Pacers reach the finals and win the championship, then the probability of Halliburton winning the FMVP is indeed quite high. After all, he is the Pacers' star. In fact, the top five are the star of the remaining five teams. The Pacers are obviously the least optimistic to win the championship, otherwise Harry would not be in this position. Harry has averaged 17.5 points, 5.5 rebounds and 9.3 assists per game so far in the playoffs, and is ranked first in the league in assists.

Second Brunson and Edwards +625

In ESPN's opinion, the Knicks and the Timberwolves have similar chances to win the championship, so these two are tied for second place. Edwards eliminated James and Curry this season's playoffs, which also gave him more attention and recognition. Edwards played too star-like, averaging 26.5 points, 8 rebounds, 5.9 assists and 1.5 steals per game in the playoffs. Brunson is not bad either. He eliminated the defending champion and led the team to make comebacks many times at critical moments in the playoffs. He is the king of reversals so far, averaging 28.8 points, 3.9 rebounds and 7.7 assists per game, and is one of the best ball-holding cores in the playoffs.

No. Alexander +115

Although the Thunder was forced into the tiebreak, ESPN still believes that the Thunder has the most hope of winning the championship. As the Thunder's boss and has absolute ball rights, it is reasonable that he is optimistic about winning the FMVP. Alexander still has a gap in field control ability compared to Jokic. I hope he can solve this problem in the future. Alexander can average 28.4 points, 6.2 rebounds, 6.6 assists and 1.3 steals per game in the playoffs.
