The best thing about him is zero presence in the media outside the court. No one knew where he was, what he's been doing, he's got no takes on the ongoing playoffs, doesn't tweet, post on TikTok or Instagram, even us Serbs have no idea about his whereabouts, as not even Serbian reporters are able to track him down.

Is there any explanation as to why they do it that way? I never understood this. The voting is over before the first round begins and the NBA knows who the MVP is within 10 seconds or so.

As a Dirk fan I hated it when he got his. It should have been a great day for him and the fans in Dallas and instead the atmosphere at the ceremony was like a funeral.

Edit:
Speaking of Dirk, Jokic reminds me of him. Impossible to hate this guy.

They are close when fully healthy but need more reliable defense...losing Grant/Craig seemed to make them way more vulnurble

People don't realize that the Nuggets actually lost 6 guys for the season due to injury, 3 of which were in their top 4 defenders.

Actually they were missing healthy Garry Harris and PJ Dozier IMO

My favorite player in the league by a country mile. Quiet. Understated. But an absolute killer on the court that is just a joy to watch.

It’s a shame that hot take television and toxic internet discourse has tricked so many people into thinking they hate this guy.


Whoever hates Jokic has no soul. He's one of the most likeable guys in the NBA and plays a beautiful brand of basketball.
I don't know how anybody can hate this guy.

Once, just once, I'd like to see the Nuggets with a fully healthy roster for the playoffs.

Yup, basically just how he wants it to be.
