X won the MVP
Y did not win the MVP X deserves the MVP over Y because he finished much higher in the vote. The supposition is illogical, unless we conclude that the MVP voters are infallible. If rank in the MVP determines who actually deserved the MVP, every MVP vote has been correct and every single finish has always been in the correct order or close to the correct order. If we acknowledge that this is not the case, then the fact that X finished Z slots over Y is irrelevant. Whether a player finished 1st, 12th, or 117th doesn’t logically matter because the question is who deserves the MVP, not who actually won. I would pick Carter over Murphy that year, but I do not see any robbery here. Schmidt had a good case that year too. |
