Time for a thread-hijack.

Speaking of the joker anyone tired of the joker as a villain onscreen. Don't get me wrong I'm digging the deleted scene and Barry Keoghan from the new Batman movie but there's sooo many other villains that haven't been on screen yet. Hush for one.

The issue is likely not Silver, although it is odd to me that the refs that treat Jokic all are of a certain color.

After Joel wins MVP Jokic will be at his rightful spot at the #2 center in the league. Embiid is favored by Vegas and the NBA ladder now has Embiid winning mvp as well. Jokic’s team is too close to a play in to be considered better than Embiid.

LMAO, it is funny the only argument you have is with team record, should be easy for even a homer like you to figure out that your guy isn't number 1 in that case.

It is abundantly clear that Joel Embiid is going to win the MVP this season. Homer or not the national media has Embiid as the best candidate for MVP. Once Joel brings that trophy home Jokic will be in his rightful place as the 2nd best center in the league. Also if Joel wins MVP Jokic with the best PER of all time will be 2nd team all NBA lol

Embiid for the 1st time this season is 1st on the NBA MVP ladder after for a majority of the year leading the Vegas odds. NBA.com has had Jokic 1st for most the year but just like the Vegas odds Embiid is now on top and a clear favorite for the MVP.

It's not Adam Silver, Jokic just doesn't get the same amount of respect as other players do. It was evident in the Phoenix game last night. The way Ayton and Booker were allowed to hack at him with no fouls being called on them. The fact that he only avg. 6 FTA (14th in the league) is absurd when you consider how physical his post-ups are. Giannis and Embiid are almost doubling him in FTA.

Jokic's team has 2 less wins than Baby Biid's and Embiid has had between top end talent next to him all year... Jokic has done more with less. The second best player on the Nuggets (Gordon) wouldn't even be a Top 4 player on the Sixers...

Oh. Rando internet avatars I guess.

If Jokic was black and white refs refuses to call fouls committed on him not only would everybody notice it, there would be public outrage but let's pretend it doesn't happen because he is white.

Once again betting odds are set to attract betters, they mean nothing when 1 market size is huge and the other is middle of the road.

As for the MVP ladder that also figures team record in it.

So once again you cannot make a single argument that has anything to do with the actual players as stats clearly show Embiid should be 3rd at best.

And equally as crazy is the amount of elbows and hooks Jokic gets away with on his physical post ups

Lol!!!! They have deandre Ayton in the top 10 and James harden as a top 5 mvp candidate??? This gave me a good laugh.

Also they don’t even have Tatum nor Derozen in the top 10 which is also absurd.
