What I will say is there is no reason to give Jokic the MVP over SGA

Denver doing what people expected them to do while SGA got his team playing out of their mind. Everyone expected a jump from OKC but not top 4 seed type of jump (possibly top seed out west)

A lot of voters need to lose their vote if they give the MVP to Jokic again

Stop it.

Lose their vote?

Cmon man.

Denver might not be a playoff team without Jokic.

That is a ridiculous take.

Hand stayed on top of the ball the entire time.

No chance that is ever getting called today.
Oh... I agree that doesn't get called in the NBA today.

I’m on board, Shai is the mVP, period.

Wanting Shai to win, even thinking he should is legit.

Saying that Jokic is undeserving to the point people who vote for him shouldn’t get a vote?

That is one of the worst takes I have ever seen on here.

I give him a chance too.

But you know why the Thunder made the jump this year.

Shai is their best player and their catalyst, no doubt. But he was playing pretty close to his current level last year too.

The reason the Thunder are legit this year is because they added Chet and JDub is a budding star beside Shai.

@bksballer89 trying to give all the credit for team improvement to Shai in the MVP vote is foolish.

Jokic means as much or more to Denver than Shai does to OKC. Just because Denver was a top team last season is no reason to punish Jokic.

They are a top team and have been a top team because Jokic is arguably the best player in the league.

Last night was a shining example of Shai’s value though. After losing a big lead and falling behind 6 the Thunder righted the ship from the second Shai came back in the game. 2 straight seasons with 45 games over 30 points, only one to do that since MJ. And he has 21 games to add to it. He is a legit candidate for the all defensive team as well. His case makes itsself and I do expect it to gain steam.
