 While none of us will be filling out ballots this year, we thought we’d chime in on the debate for MVP, Coach of the Year and the other end-of-season NBA awards.

Remember when people were saying this season would be unwatchable because Kevin Durant signed with the Golden State Warriors? They couldn’t have been more wrong.

All really dumb questions with one very simple answer: Why not?
