Who else? OP said “a lot of people”
listen, you can play all the "voter fatigue" game u want or say they didn't wanna give him 3 straight MVPs without whatever etc
but 2nd team all-NBA?
Jokic had a historic season and his team was atop it's conference
that's more than one person, right?
I didn’t say anything about voter fatigue or anything like that.
OP made a thread days before any first team announcements, or the Mark Jackson news, because some people had the audacity to not have Jokic as automatic lock #1.
For what it’s worth, I would’ve put Jokic first, but the complaining about voters having a slightly different opinion is just tiresome.
lol you're missing the point, that's not why I made this thread. I made this thread because people said things like this all this year and last year:
The MVP voting, the all-nab 2nd team selection, the narratives are all the results and symptoms of empty, made up narratives and arbitrary cutoffs and probably some visual bias in the opposite way Perkins imagined lol. So when Jokic emphatically dominates the real season — the playoffs — I had to double back. Averaging a 30-point triple double on 65 TS%, I can't help but circle back. It's such an emphatic W. When I say "a lot of people look stupid," I'm really talking about these talking heads, and honestly, a lot of journalists. The truth is, Jokic has never lost a series he wasn't supposed to lose, and he's won series he wasn't supposed to. He's transcendently good in the playoffs, especially when he has help. but people have been acting like he's some unproven regular season warrior lol. So yeah man idk, there's no way around it here — my thread is valid, and videos like the one above, as well as the results of the All-NBA teams make it
