Really very immature by OKC only going for 3 points!

They're very out of sorts. They need SGA and J-Dub to settle them down.

Who is winning MVP if Indy wins this series? Pretend game 7 doesn’t exist.

Do they only give MVPs to a winner team's player?

Jerry West won the first Finals MVP after losing the 1969 Finals.

No other player has ever won from the losing team. Lebron almost did once.

That's amazing. In Cricket there have been many instances when this is done.

It's usually pretty clear who should win MVP, but the voters definitely lean hard towards players from the winning team.

reply

Who votes? Is there a jury or it's public involved as well?

reply

It's a small group of media members and they make some weird choices when the answer isn't obvious. For example, Steph Curry only won Finals MVP once out of his four titles and he was the most valuable player all four times.

Media. They have a panel of basketball media assigned to vote.

It's not a rule. They could give it to a player from the losing team but seems unlikely. Happened in NHL last year.

Can it be McConnell?

reply

It's probably Siakam but I want it to be McConnell.

reply

He sure feels like the MVP when he's on the court.

The whole team?

Except for Turner?

reply

Haha yeah.

They play such team basketball it’s hard to pick

That would be awesome

I agree, imagine if they took more makeable shots for all those!
