Inside the minds of MVP voters with ESPN's Tim Bontemps
Listen now
Description
The NBA's All-Star Week has passed, and with it, attention now turns to the stretch run and whatever races for season-long hardware that is not already sewn up. This season, that includes the 2024 Most Valuable Player award. It feels like star Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum is making a late push to get in the running, but how exactly does the MVP voter think about such late risers for the award?
To get an idea about the politics and other invisible elements of MVP voting, the CLNS Media "Celtics Lab" podcast linked up with the mind behind ESPN's annual MVP straw poll, Tim Bontemps.
Join us as C Lab cohost Cameron Tabatabaie gets into the nitty-gritty of the 2024 MVP race and how voters tend to approach the award race with Bontemps in a special bonus audio-only episode of "Celtics Lab".
