Spurs have the best bench in the NBA and Manu Ginobili is the leader of it. He should win tbh.

Crawford will win due to the LA hype. Manu ginobili is most deserving though. It'll be a Bruce Bowen like snub.
There's no worthless award in sports. Basketball is just entertainment that people sell to us for a big profit, so any award is just a token for fans to cling to. Teams are in it for profit, despite all the "we want to win championships" claims. So if one award is worthless, they all are. I know who's won 6thMotY several years back. Same with DPOY and CotY. All these awards to mean something to fans.
Duncan getting another FMVP would be absolutely astounding.
Updated after last night's game:
For single seasons; played in the NBA/BAA; in the regular season; in 2013-14; requiring Games Started <= 33.5; sorted by descending Win Shares.
5.0 Manu Ginobili
4.9 Chris Anderson, Jamal Crawford, Markieff Morris
4.8 D. J. Augustin, Marco Belinelli, Darren Collison, Taj Gibson
4.6 Boris Diaw, Anderson Varajao (but I'd disqualify Varajao for >50% GS)
weirdest part of a very weird post season for spurs fans in 2013 was the fact that there was a point in the finals series where you didn't know who the FMVP would be if the spurs had won. duncan? green? parker? kawhi?
I think if we won, Green had it locked up. That was the single most incredible shooting performance I've ever seen in a playoff series. NO one has ever shot that well.
The Heat finally figured out that they have to limit the role players and force the big 3 to beat them. That strategy has worked the past few years.
If Manu wins it, who'll he join as multiple sixth man of the year winners?
