迈阿密——维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama) 明确表态：他想赢得本赛季的NBA最有价值球员（MVP）奖。
在圣安东尼奥马刺队锁定九年来首个西南赛区冠军后不久，这位马刺球星在周一晚上详细阐述了他的MVP竞选理由。此前，状态火热的马刺队以136-111击败迈阿密热火队，在过去的24场比赛中赢下了22场。
“我考虑过这件事，”文班亚马说道，“我认为现在确实存在争议。这种争论是应该有的，尽管我觉得我应该在竞争中领跑。我正努力确保在赛季结束时，不再有任何争议。”
文班亚马场均贡献24.3分、11.2个篮板、3.0次助攻和3.0次盖帽。历史上只有六名球员曾打出过这样的赛季数据：卡里姆·阿卜杜尔-贾巴尔 (Kareem Abdul-Jabbar) 五次做到，哈基姆·奥拉朱旺 (Hakeem Olajuwon) 两次做到，沙奎尔·奥尼尔 (Shaquille O’Neal)、帕特里克·尤因 (Patrick Ewing) 和大卫·罗宾逊 (David Robinson) 各有一次。名单上的第六人？正是文班亚马，他在上个赛季也做到了这一点，尽管当时只打了46场比赛。
现任MVP、俄克拉荷马城雷霆队的谢伊·吉尔杰斯-亚历山大 (Shai Gilgeous-Alexander) 是再次捧杯的绝对热门。紧随其后的是洛杉矶湖人队后卫、NBA得分王卢卡·东契奇 (Luka Doncic)。
截至周一，文班亚马的获奖赔率排名第三，领先于丹佛掘金队中锋尼古拉·约基奇 (Nikola Jokic) 一个位次。目前看来，其他人的获奖机会都非常渺茫，不过NBA关于重大奖项（包括MVP）评选资格的65场规则可能会成为一个变量。例如，三届MVP得主约基奇只能再缺席一场比赛，否则将失去评选资格；而文班亚马最多还能缺席三场。马刺队目前还剩10场常规赛。
文班亚马曾在两年前获得NBA年度最佳新秀，且在上赛季被普遍认为锁定了年度最佳防守球员，直到他因深静脉血栓被迫停赛。他提出了三点竞选主张。
“我的第一个理由是，防守占据了比赛的50%，但在目前的MVP竞争中被低估了。我相信我是联盟中防守影响力最大的球员，”文班亚马说，“第二个论点是，我们本赛季几乎横扫了俄克拉荷马城雷霆队，并且在他们全主力出战的情况下三次统治了比赛……第三个论点是，进攻影响力不仅仅体现在得分上。”
马刺队内部也坚信文班亚马不仅仅是一名MVP竞争者，这并不令人意外。
“我认为他已经很接近了，”马刺队教练米奇·约翰逊 (Mitch Johnson) 表示，“你提到的那些球员都实至名归，其中几位已经拿过这个奖了。我当然有偏见，因为我每晚都能看到他的表现。我在训练场上看到他，看到他早上的努力，看到他现在赛后的状态。所以，我明白我的观点和视角与其他人截然不同。”
“但在我这个‘孤陋寡闻’的人看来，他在比赛的方方面面都产生了巨大的影响——无论是在场上、攻防两端、有球还是无球状态，以及对方球队的针对性部署、方案、调整。他的影响力不亚于我见过的任何球员。信不信由你。”
马刺队目前的战绩为54胜18负。他们将成为西部第一或第二种子。他们将在季后赛首轮和次轮（如果晋级）拥有主场优势，如果能打进总决赛，几乎肯定也会拥有主场优势。这其中有很多原因，但最大的原因——字面意义上的大，考虑到文班亚马身高7英尺4英寸——是这位22岁的球队基石，他每天都以成熟和职业态度让马刺队感到惊叹。
对文班亚马来说，MVP奖杯几乎肯定会在未来的某个时刻到来，但他不想再等了。
“目前，存在争论仍然是合理的，”他说，“但正如我所说，我的目标是确保在赛季结束时不再有任何争论。”

Spurs’ Victor Wembanyama makes his case for NBA’s MVP Award
MIAMI – Victor Wembanyama is making it clear: He wants to win the NBA’s Most Valuable Player Award this season.
The San Antonio Spurs star – moments after his team clinched its first Southwest Division title in nine seasons – detailed some elements of his MVP case Monday night after the red-hot Spurs beat the Miami Heat 136-111 for their 22nd win in the past 24 games.
“I have thought about it,” Wembanyama said. “I think right now, there is a debate. There should be, even though I think I should lead the race. I’m trying to make sure that at the end of the season, there’s no debate.”
Wembanyama is averaging 24.3 points, 11.2 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 3.0 blocked shots. Only six players have finished a season with such numbers: Kareem Abdul-Jabbar did it five times, Hakeem Olajuwon did it twice and Shaquille O’Neal, Patrick Ewing and David Robinson each did it once. The sixth player on that list? That would be Wembanyama, who did all that last season, as well, albeit in only 46 games.
The reigning MVP, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander of the Oklahoma City Thunder, is the overwhelming favorite to win the trophy again. Next on the list: Los Angeles Lakers guard Luka Doncic, the NBA’s leading scorer.
Wembanyama has the third-best odds as of Monday, one spot ahead of Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic. Everyone else would be considered a significant long shot for the award at this point, though the NBA’s 65-game rule for major award eligibility – including for MVP – could become a factor. Jokic, a three-time MVP, can sit out only one more game, for example, before he falls off the ballot, and Wembanyama can sit out no more than three more times. The Spurs have 10 regular-season games left.
Wembanyama, who won NBA Rookie of the Year two years ago and was generally considered a lock for Defensive Player of the Year last season until he had to be shut down while dealing with deep vein thrombosis, has a three-part campaign pitch.
“My first one would be that defense is 50% of the game and that it is undervalued so far in the MVP race. I believe I’m the most impactful player defensively in the league,” Wembanyama said. “Second argument would be that we almost swept OKC in the season, and we dominated them three times with their real team. … The third argument would be that offense impact is not just points.”
It should not surprise anyone that the Spurs also believe Wembanyama is more than just an MVP contender.
“I think he’s close,” Spurs coach Mitch Johnson said. "All those guys you named are deserving; a couple of them already have that award. And I’m very biased. I get to see one of those guys every single night. I get to see him on the practice court. I get to see what he does in the morning. I get to see what does right now, after the game. So, I understand my opinion and outlook and perspective is very different than almost everyone else.
“But he affects as much of the game in every single way – on the court, on both ends, with and without the ball, what the other team tries to do, plan for, scheme, adjust to, on both sides of the basketball, in my very ignorant opinion – as much as any other player I’ve ever seen. Take that for whatever it’s worth.”
The Spurs are 54-18. They’re going to be the No. 1 or No. 2 seed in the Western Conference. They’ll have home-court advantage in Round 1 of the playoffs and Round 2, if they get there, and they almost certainly would have it in the NBA Finals if they get that far. There are a lot of reasons for that, but the biggest – literally, given that Wembanyama is 7-foot-4 – is the 22-year-old face of the franchise who has wowed the Spurs every day with his maturity and work ethic.
The MVPs are almost certainly coming at some point for Wembanyama, but he doesn’t want to keep waiting.
“Right now, it is still reasonable that there is a debate,” he said. “But as I said, my goal is to make sure there’s no debate anymore at the end of the season.”
