This award is one of the best things the league has done in a long time. Besides the play-in.

[@frankfilcamporedondo7324]

I think that award was the scoring title of the year.

[@LotkaVolterra]

OPOY might be a bit redundant and go to the MVP most years. I do like this award though.

[@dre7147]

Scoring title and MVP is the offensive player of the year basically

[@kahlilalexis4958]

It's called the scoring titles bud

[@Superbad22]

@@kahlilalexis4958 I know there’s the scoring title I just meant a dedicated award for the best offensive player like what football has but I guess you guys are right. Would be a little redundant

It's not pointless but the criteria of what is clutch a too slim for me, scoring points isn't the only way a player can be clutch, there's no accounting game winning clutch defense or right assist plays in the clutch

Clutch player award should be called the Kobe Bryant award, but he's already got the All-star game MVP award named after him. The NBA uses too many images of Jerry West at this point, he's already the NBA logo, and there are many other great players who need to be honored.

[@blowc1612]

Kyrie was definitely snubbed of this award. Idc about “clutch points” when you have the most 20-point 4th quarters all-time and lead your team to several wins after trailing double digits. “Clutch points” is a perfect example of how “advanced statistics” are a mockery to the game. For example, you could be down 5 points, trade baskets, and LOSE while scoring several “clutch points”. He wasn’t too clutch vs Kyrie this season either.
