Absolutely 100 % the correct decision. So many clear cut first choice votes makes it obvious.

Would be like if you had Jokic and Luka on the same team.

If jokic had Kobe on his team they wouldn’t care about counting MVPs they would be counting rings

How so? Imo he was the favorite followed by SGA and then Luka.

Who averaged a 35 point triple double? Westbrook?

Nope. Not with all the Free Throws and calls SGA gets per game.

Anyhow Joker should have won last year as well. And for over 90 % percent of the regular season Jokic was the best player in the NBA.

Someone voted for Domantis after the Kings finished in 9th? I mean c’mon there’s sooo many more deserving candidates regardless of your criteria.

Perfect timing as he’s being exposed in the playoffs. Worst 3x MVP in nba history. Future fans will look back and laugh.

I just wanna bring up one name who after these playoffs should really be up there next year, Brunson. He might be on the road to being the best Knick ever in the game!

Hope Knick fans are enjoying him! And glad you guys are firmly in the playoffs now where you belong.

Shaq is definitely very petty and narcissistic but in this case I can see the salt. :lol:

Arguably the most dominant ever and only one regular season MVP to his name. All his ATG center peers got 2+ but him lol.
