Ja Morant takes a shot at the media’s apparent MVP-bias for Jokic (“it’s obvious [who] they want”)

[Damnshow]

How is the media biased for Jokic exactly? Even the year he won the MVP the hype was quiet

 

[CantStop]

He’s not lying. There’s been an obvious Jokic push by the media that goes beyond the standard look what he’s doing. It’s almost like a collective effort to MAKE him the MVP.

 

[Premeditated]

good point

Kobe didn't get mvp for dragging that sorry ass Laker team to the 7th seed in 06 with his historic scoring at the time. they gave that shyt to Nash

can't start changing the narrative now

 

[JoelB]

No lie told. We see wasup

I’ve never seen so many random ass advanced analytics to support a player.

This is a good fukking point.

 

[T.he I.nformant]

MVP debates be getting people in their feelings forreal

Clearly, there are at least a few who are deserving but there can only be one so someone’s going to be left out

Arguing that Jokic doesn’t deserve to be MVP is weird

Arguing that Embiid doesn’t deserve to be MVP is weird

Arguing that Giannis doesn’t deserve to be MVP is weird

Top 3 are Jokic, JoJo, and Giannis tho

But MVPs are narrative driven too much and there's no set criteria so it's always gonna be fukkery involved.

But Ja's team is too good even without him so that hurts him if he trying to slide in to the convo at this point.

I'd still give Jokic a slight edge having no Murray all year and MPJ having a backiotomy.


Kobe definitely deserved draggin that trash to the playoffs back then. Def Robbed

Nash a back to back MVP and never even got to the Finals in his career?

Before 2017 show me the last time a player on a 6/7 seed won MVP. This is some new age shyt that only started with Westbrook’s triple double.

 

[Patrick Kane]

But the Grizzlies are 15-2 this season without Ja

The team is well coached, has depth and play within a system and they GO without Ja.

The Nuggets whole offense is Jokic. He literally runs the point forward and everything on offense goes through him. The team would completely fall apart with Jokic. His impact on the team is immense.

THE MEDIA LITERALLY
VOTES FOR THE AWARD.

Completely agree.

Just shows how much went into Kobe being robbed in 06.
