Elevates and detonates!

Lebron called and said “I would have won if not for injuries/scheduling”

At least the NBA didn’t award it to Kyrie Irving.

I cry foul!

Lol

I've always thought it was foul but no matter how good a player is, they get tired of voting for the same guy every year. SGA had a great season, so did his club, so I have no issue with him earning it but there's still no doubt in my mind that Jokic is easily the greatest player since peak Lebron.

Congratulations Shai!

The best player in the NBA this year!

If there could be CO-MVPs in the NBA, this would have been an opportune time for it to happen. Both players are deserving.

There’s no decision. I don’t think we’ve ever seen a reigning mvp up for extension not get the super max. Ever.

Especially one who’s only 26 and favored to win his first title, with a young squad surrounding him and a boatload of draft picks.

They're in a good spot too financially. Chet will probably get max money eventually and maybe Jalen Williams but that's it when it comes to above midlevel guys.
