They finally found the only media voter who didn’t put Nikola Jokic as a top 5 player in the MVP race. It was Mark Jackson

I'm ok with it. You can't always have the same guys MVP every year 🤷🏾‍♀️.

You need new faces and let's not act like Mitchell and SGA didn't have great seasons averaging over 28pts and obviously Tatum did his thing. Sure the Cavs finished 4th and got gentleman's swept while OKC didn't even make the playoffs, you can't say they weren't worthy of the award based on how their impact on the court improved their team success.

I'm happy Joel won but personally I'm getting tired of constantly seeing Embiid, Giannis, and Jokic finish in the top 3 as MVP candidates it's gotten kind of repetitive 🤷🏾‍♀️ they're not the only MVP caliber guys in the league.

Terrible post.

No one gives a shyt if you're sick and tired of DESERVING players winning awards. Absolutely abhorrent take.

It's not even about Jokic not winning, it's the fact that he didn't even list him top 5. Nobody is taking anything away from the seasons Mitchell, SGA, and Tatum had. They weren't better than Jokic's.

I'm pretty sure most fans would like to see some new trophy winners 🤷🏾‍♀️ you must be a salty Jokic fanboy 🤣.

Similar to the NBA Finals, nobody wants to continue seeing the same ole few teams make the finals and/or winning outside of those fanbases.

Mark Jackson not listing Jokic in the top 5 is likely to do with the fact he already knew since Jokic won it back-to-back it was highly unlikely he'd win again so why list him? Everybody except Jokic fanboys and fangirls didn't want to accept the fact no matter how good of a season he puts forth...a 3rd MVP in a row was never going to happen regardless of the numbers he puts up 🤷🏾‍♀️.

This has nothing to do with him leaving Jokic out of the top 5 on his MVP ballot. Why do people love to pass of their personal opinion as a fact?

Anyone who ignores the numbers doesn’t deserve a vote. The MVP should be strictly based on stats regardless of who won years prior and how many times they won. Thankfully they will start incorporating AI soon so these fugazy votes won’t matter

The media has been pretty much 85% very positive and supportive with Embid winning in regards to feeling happy for him winning whether they actually agreed or not, because they either felt he should have won last year and was robbed or should have won this year. Including me. But even if you don’t want the white boy to win you can’t not have him at atleast #5 when he is the best statistically this season in the NBA. He almost averaged a triple double. I didn’t want him to win a single year, but you talking crazy. Lol
