We debate whether the NBA’s 65-game threshold protects the value of MVP and All-NBA or punishes players for bad injury luck. We weigh availability against dominance, then test the rule by imagining how it would have changed award history. 
• Explaining the NBA 65-game threshold for MVP, DPOY and other awards 
• Comparing possible standards like 60 games versus 75 games 
• Why a games-played baseline can reduce bias and protect award integrity 
• How the rule pushes back on unnecessary load management 
• The injury problem and whether the cutoff adds dangerous pressure 
• Why fans and ticket prices should match player availability 
• Retroactive examples with Steph, LeBron, Kobe, MJ, Embiid and Bill Walton
