Jokic will win it.

I do think Curry has been the most valuable player in the league though.

Jokic is and should be the mvp. Embiid shouldn’t even be in the top 3 conversation.

Jokic is MVP because he is chacking every criteria for MVP unlike the other two.
But if you ask who had the best season it is Jokic
But if you ask who was the best player this season it is Jokic
But if you ask who is the most valuable for his team it is Jokic

Option 4:

Julius Randle is the MVP.

I personally give you 100.00 odds for a bet > $1000 on Randle.

Curry over Giannis, yeah, I don't buy it.
What has Curry done this year that, say, Beal, didn't do last year? This is nothing but recency bias

Jokic is so over rated on this board it’s sick, he’s literally a turnstile on defense. Joel is a better player, he is elite on both ends. Jokic will win it but only because he played 20 more games than Joel.

Curry being nominated is a joke.

Even if everything else you said here was true (it’s not), the “only because he played 20 more games than Joel” part should matter … a lot.

Don’t really care, looking back, it will be one of those most underwhelming MVPs similar to the Nash ones.

Jokic destroys Embiid in all around stats, yes he also played a ton more games. Only thing Embiid has over him are 2 more team wins but in the Eastern conference.

So, how is Jokic overrated?

I can see why the job of a Mod can be frustrating sometimes. There’s a whole stickied MVP thread at the top of the forum and you create this thead for no reason
