Denver was in a nice position to grab even #4 seed just two days ago, but back-to-back 4th quarter disasters at home make it probably mission impossible. These two losses will also probably cost Joker 2022 MVP title as well.

Horrible loss. Huge disappointment. Agreed 100%.

I think that's (hopefully) overstating it.

Among other metrics, Jokic currently leads Embiid, by either a (very) substantial or small amount this year in:

--WS
--WS/48
--PER
--VORP
--BPM
--EPM
--LEBRON
--RAPTOR
--PIE

I could see if it was somewhat split between candidates. But, it isn't. Jokic has been the best player all season, and continues to be.

Whether the "narrative" (a.k.a, hype and BS) drives the MVP Voting; well, we shall see.

Name another player in NBA History who played- essentially- an entire season without the team's second and third best players, and still led their team to a .588 winning percentage.

Not about the money, 1 USD is around 23 Kč so I could have like... 55 bucks. But hitting big outsiders in Blazers and Pacers and being denied by my Nuggets... :waaa:

Unacceptable, low-effort defeat. The Raptors getting that many offensive rebounds is just embarrassing.
