JB for MVP. Easy vote for me

Jokic or Wemby is the real mvp rn. Meaning best player in the NBA

Thought we was talking bout cade
@ratapaga5963
February 11, 2026 at 7:01 pm
Jaylen Brown is the mvp and I’m not even a celtics fan, but bro how in the heck are the celtics still good after they got rid of 4 key players and Tatum is hurt!!!

Cade for MVP he’s the best point guard in the league
@shazebahmed0704
February 11, 2026 at 7:11 pm
Cade is better than Shai “free throw baiter” alexander
@shazebahmed0704
February 11, 2026 at 7:12 pm
Cade changed a franchise none of these players can do that

Luka averages more points , rebounds, assists, steals, blocks more the brown and has same record while having injuries and in the west……..

Cade is better

Lmao he days brown really perk anyone but jokic ha guess what jokic is doing more then anyone stop the nonsense and if you gonna name someone other then joker it be better be cade Cunningham
@ajfrancisco7726
February 11, 2026 at 9:06 pm
Cade should be a very strong candidate for MVP, we never anticipate Detroit to be number 1 in the east, OKC was expected to be number 1 in the west, Brown should be in considerations as well but him and his team have the experience..

Cade for mvp? Espn has lost ALL credibility

JB doesn’t get the help from the refs like sga does. Sga has to flop his way to his numbers JB just takes it knowing the refs won’t help him

These comments are brain dead. First off, CUNNINGHAM gets PLENTY of recognition, his team is literally 1st in the east so please, STFU. BROWN is the one who deserves recognition. Did Cade lose half his roster? No? Yeah that’s right. Celtics lost Holiday, Horford, Kornet, Porzingis and Jayson Tatum has been out all season yet they’re 2nd in the east. Did anyone see this coming? Nope absolutely not. I told people not to sleep on the Celtics back in the preseason!!! Now look at them. Cade is not doing what Brown is doing period. It’s called carrying an underdog team.
