00:00
Still a minus 4,000 price to be the MVP for SGA over Nicola Jokic, but
00:06
61-10 and 10. I don't even know how that's possible
00:10
But it seems like Jokic always ups the ante but not good enough to crack the MVP market coach
00:16
No, I'm obviously what a performance by Nicola Jokic to argue me to the performance of the year
00:21
But the problem is is SGA still giving you thirty three five and six and the biggest thing about it dying
00:28
Let's be honest
00:29
They have a better record by 17 games
00:32
So to me the best player putting up MVP numbers
00:38
Where we also have talked about numerous times on this network, right?
00:42
voter fatigue
00:44
We're at a point now where it doesn't matter what Nicola Jokic does. He's not winning the MVP now
00:50
Has he had a valuable season?
00:51
Yes
00:52
But to me this is also about the voter fatigue the stats and the fact that Oklahoma City is far and away the best record
00:59
in the NBA
01:01
Again, that's why people are the MVP votes have all turned into idiots
01:05
Betting nothing. Okay, it goes to the best
01:11
But if that's the case Jordan should have won about 10 MVPs LeBron should have won about 10 MVPs
01:22
I
01:23
Agree with you. It should be left. You go by who is the most valuable person on their team?
01:30
Yes, you you can argue that Jalen Brunson should have been in the MVP conversation the last two years what he's brought to the Knicks
01:36
But that's not what happens. I don't listen
01:39
I don't know how much basketball these guys actually watch but I do know voter fatigue is something, you know
01:45
The year that Joker what they should have gave it to him B
01:49
Then the year that it beat what it gave it to Joker now the Joker and a B wanted too much
01:54
We can't go there. How about you honest? How about you?
01:56
Yeah, this is that you know, so I mean, I mean even James Horton's had an MVP style style season
02:01
But this is the way the NBA works after four or five years. It's like we can't give it to this guy too much
02:08
Let's move to the next crop. So now that's where you got the Lucas you got obviously the SGA's
02:14
Obviously one and to be the guy it's almost like the passing of the torch
02:18
But really should it be?
02:21
Do we want to call it? You know the MVP or what? Because honestly mark you do make a good point
02:26
You could say he has the best most valuable to his team. You think Nicola Jokic off the Denver Nuggets?
02:33
What are they? I mean
02:37
Middle-of-the-road team in a Western Conference you take SG off the team. You still have hard time
02:43
You saw Jalen Williams sub blue door. You have other guys that could elevate that team and they're a lot more depth
02:50
So yes, that makes sense. You're right, but unfortunately, this is the way the NBA has been for a long long time
