We're six pages deep, and yet nobody has made a coherent and convincing argument that Jokic shouldn't be MVP, despite arguing he shouldn't be. TheColi in a nutshell.
It Looks Like the MVP Outcome is all but Officially Decided

Probably but Jokic is arguably the least "white" player in the nba.
Dude was a second round pick who was to fat to play longer than 15 minutes a game and willed himself into a moderately in shape all time great big and he is only 27. I don't know how you can hate on that. Not so low key Jokic is the "get it out the mud" white player that damn near all black people I know respect. Like in the same way Dirk is pretty much universally accepted in the black community cause he was trash when he got to the league, then willed himself to greatness, then got completely embarrassed by golden state, then picked himself up and won a title.
If somebodies hating on Jokic I'd bet all the money in one of my bank accounts they listen to Joe Rogan religiously

Jokic is quite spectacular in my opinion!
What exactly did Embiid do to lose the MVP? Beginning of the season, everyone said it was Steph’s but he went into a crazy slump and got hurt. Embiid has been putting up numbers since January with a squad very similar to Joker with less of a bench, and Harden didn’t arrive until February. Harden hasn’t even played like a superstar to change the narrative that Embiid has that much more help. Joker had a good season too, but despite only being a couple games behind the Sixers in wins, the East is a tougher conference this year.
If he does that's very suspicious, last person to do that was Jordan. He actually had titles to back it up tho
Edit: nope was Bird
Steve Nash over Kobe and Shaq all over again

What a stupid post.
Because their case is all eye test and playoff success but the MVP is a RS award
this dusty ass clown just likes to hear himself talk.
Controversy
Superstar
Sixers without Harden >>> Nuggets
Biidy Biid had a great yr...Joker had a historic yr
Joker improved defensively...was more efficient...floor general...and willed a 22 win team to 48 wins, would've been 49 if he played the last game
The #s support his mvp candidacy, the eye test supports it, but his overall value cannot be denied
This isn't like the nba robbing Kobe of mvp, Joker is actually more than deserving
and the Nuggets had a total -8 net rating in the 4th Quarter this season, only behind the openly tanking Blazers
so this just shows how bad the roster around Jokic was this season and that they have a +8 net rating in the 4th Quarter when he is on the floor? cool
and if we want to care about net rating, he had a better net rating than both Giannis & Embiid this season (playing with worse talent around him)

seems like he was grasping for straws and found one straw that doesnt mean as much as he thinks it does. denver's net rating while hes on the floor in the 4th qtr is -.5 but denver's net rating when he's off the floor is -15.2 so youre still seeing the impact of +14.7 in on/off which is higher than embiid's but lower than giannis in the 4th.
