Did the right candidate win MVP?

Embiid got injured and had to sustain his averages over a larger sample

[MrFonzworth]

Broken face, fresh off concussion, torn ligament in hand. Biggest factor is Harden is his teammate

[GimmeThat]

apparently, Giannis isn't ballin anymore

Joker was always better than Embiid, always will be better.

I don't know why they even compared so much. It's probably black vs white thing.

you're really going to need the Warriors to win the whole thing to make that statement undoubtedly true.

if people want to hate on position basketball, then the quarter back position must be dead as well.

versatility isn't a factor if every player have to play the whole 48 minutes of game with no substitution whatsoever

I have no idea what the hell are you rambling about. Warriors? 48 mins? Quarter backs? Are you replying to me, or voices in your head?

b/c they play the same position, are the same age, and were drafted the same year.

It's probably black vs white thing.

Doubtful. Embiid was anointed as the next great thing and picked at #3 even tough the 76ers knew he needed foot surgery and wasn't even going to play for at least a year while Jokic was taken w/the 41st pick in the 2nd round.

Embiid will always be assumed to be greater by many purely b/c of the first impression of the "this is a can't miss all time great type" hype he got before the draft.

Jokic would have dominated vs any team.
