Ball should win it for a number of reasons: playing style, team should improve, Laker bias, and Fultz/Simmons will split vote.
I've seen a couple of people say this but I don't think I agree. I can see MVP candidates on teh same team splitting votes because the MVP conversation is usually so centered around how much a player helps his team win. ROY tends to be a much more individualistic award and go to teams were contributions to winning aren't important because the teams don't win much.
I expect Philly will be below .500 as Fultz and Simmons will both have a shot at ROY.
