MVP vs Offensive Player of the Year
Every year, we endure the same conversations around end of season awards. Feels like a number of issues could be mitigated by adding an OPOY to go along with the DPOY and MVP.
It’d create some balance, at least, by recognizing players who are the *best* at each facet of the game, while also preventing MVP feeling like a de facto award for “best offensive player” and further differentiating between “best” and “most valuable”.
