Team records to date:
When voting occurs for All-NBA and MVP the media always points to records and key stat categories so why should the bubble be any different?
To reiterate, one caveat should be the strength of schedule and/or playing a team missing several pieces of their core. Wins against a team who have one starter in the game aren’t quite as impressive as beating an elite team with a full complement of players.

- Suns: 8-0
