I wonder how Perkins is gonna explain away why he didn't even vote for Embiid for MVP.
Congrats to EMVPIID! 
Giannis, Joel, and Nikola all had a case to win MVP this year. With the numbers Joel put up though, they couldn’t justify giving it to Joker and making him a 3x MVP (three in a row at that), despite almost averaging a triple double and having the best record in the west. When you win 3 in a row, only those in the top ten have done that (all champs), and Joker has never even been to a finals. Bucks had the best record in the league, but Giannis actually played fewer games than Embiid this year. Plus since he also had two as well, it was easy to give it to Embiid.
Embiid is a great player, but what does he do that Jokic cant?

Well deserved for Embiid. Looking at the last 5 years I didn't always agree with the winners but cool with the outcome of Jokic and Giannis walking away with 2 each and Embiid with 1. Seems like the right split.
Yes you did breh, yes you did
Crazy that there hasn’t been a guard as mvp since James Harden in 2018.
Even crazier that they've all been centers, which all things considered is the first position out the door if you had to eliminate a position in the NBA
Who will be the next MVP guard?
