Curry's failure to win the Olympic MVP is really exposed! The official process is too speechless: voting is open before the semi-finals

Curry, who played well in the semifinals and finals of the Olympics, ultimately missed the MVP, causing some controversy and discussion. On August 15, Beijing time, ESPN Celebrity Weinhorst revealed the real reason why Curry did not compete for MVP, and the biggest problem was the official FIBA voting process, which opened the voting channel two days before the United States men's basketball semifinals against Serbia.

Almost every sports league awards MVPs after the season or game, Wenhorst said. For example, the regular season MVP will be revealed at the end of all 82 games. But voting for the Olympic MVP is said to have opened two days before the United States semifinals against Serbia. This is a surprising point in time.

Wenhorst said he asked how the MVP was selected and was told it was the media vote. "The media can vote, and there's a QR code on the wall. They started voting two days before the semi-finals. It was the media and FIBA experts who voted. ”

The American media complained that this was an unheard of way to vote for MVP. After all, there is simply no point in voting until the end of the game. Curry's explosion in the semifinals and finals was key to United States' gold medal. In those two games, Curry averaged 30 points per game and made 17 three-pointers in both games.

Not long ago, Stephen A. Smith, known as "United States Yang Yi", said that although James's consistent performance was loved by people, Curry, who played well in the semifinals and finals, deserved this MVP award. In this Olympics, James averaged 14.2 points, 6.8 rebounds and 8.2 assists per game, and Curry averaged 14.8 points, 3.2 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game.
