The Bucks Are Right At The Top Of The Eastern Conference Standings
One of the biggest selling points in regards to the MVP award and who deserves to win is how well his team has done as a whole.
Over the last several years, the league-MVP has come from one of the best teams in the league and we should expect no less this season.
Winning matters in regards to this award and not only do the Bucks have a better record than Joel Embiid and the 76ers right now, but they are two games behind the Miami Heat for the 1-seed in the Eastern Conference.
Should Giannis Antetokounmpo lead the Bucks to the 1-seed in the East late in the year and continue his dominant trend as of late, there is no reason why he should not be MVP.

Antetokounmpo has recorded a double-double in seven of his last eight games since the All-Star break and he has had back-to-back performances of 39 and 43 points, respectively.
Milwaukee has won seven of eight games since the All-Star break and are one of the hottest teams in the league right now because of Giannis.
