lol

You need to drop the ''no one had ever seen before'' nonsense

Or do you think that the Showtime Lakers with Magic, Kareem and Worthy and the Celtics with Bird, McHale and Parrish never existed?
I created a thread on Parish earlier in the year and how he was a Golden State afterthought when Red Auerbeck and Bill Fitch wanted him.

I completely agree. Jokic was dominant and he was without his teams 2nd and 3rd best players.

Unfortunately, the narrative has been that he didn't deserve it because of what Giannis and Embiid are doing. Folks tend to forget that it's strictly a regular season award.

There is virtually always going to be something to complain about no matter who wins the MVP because no one can seem to come to a consensus on what constitutes ''most valuable''.

Also, since it's voted on by humans, bias also effects votes.

All them fucking stats and Jokeic's Q4 plus minus for the entire SEASON was -2?.

And the fugazi analytics indicate he is a better defender then Embid, which calls into question the entire analytics field IMO. . Jokeic couldn't guard me on a P&R

I should have went with "oh, the irony" as you were the one who brought up a Jokic/MCW comparison., Not me. Maybe hire someone to keep track of your foolish comments so you don't look foolish in your future comments?

Make it a double...ya gotta love this forum, too.
You're still dodging...

Yup, I brought up an aspect about MCW's award that is the same as Jokic's award. MCW got empty rebounds as a PG just as Joke-ic got empty assists as a center. You proceeded to compare the two directly because you chickened out of having a real response and because you don't know basketball.

8th in the league is an empty stat?

Lol you need to read the thread to learn what an empty stat is.

MCW and Jokic are kings of this. Add your empty stat guys to the list... There are plenty more.

You couldn't even name one? You don't know what we're talking about so best to stay out of the thread.

are you just messing with me? Kind of a SportsHoopla version of Punked?

you - said I was the one who brought up MCW
also you - "Yup, I brought up an aspect of MCW....."

If you don't make your original, foolish comparison about MCW, I never would have mentioned MCW.

The "real response" was trying to educate you on what true empty stats are. I cannot learn for you.

Ya gotta love this forum.

right? I mean, efficient scoring while running an offense at center which leads to wins is empty?

You have to move quickly to get foul calls. It’s also harder to draw foul calls playing 20 feet away from the basket.
At this point I feel for the guy for all the injuries he's playing with, but he gets a ton of phantom calls. Oladipo did not touch Embiid when he slipped under the basket just moments ago.
