MVP voting is gong to be a runaway.

NBA MVP media straw poll - Can anyone catch Denver Nuggets star Nikola Jokic?

With a month left in the season, the Nuggets center looks like an overwhelming favorite to claim his first MVP award.

Even if the Nuggets fall to the 8 seed?

Any other option missed too much time, or their team isn't good enough.

I wouldn't celebrate yet

As much as I hate him, it should be Chris Paul

I get he shouldn't win it. But Mitchell is putting up MVP numbers on the 1 seed.

You think he deserves it over Giannis and Embiid?

Giannis no. Embiid maybe depending how many games he plays. My main point is

not an efficient scorer and he doesn’t play defense. He’d be like 15th for me

I just like MVP's on high seeds. Jokic will run away with it. But higher seed

dezzy

4/15/21 12:40pm

That's fair. I think if you put too much weight on seed though you risk it

Jay Kay

4/15/21 12:54pm

That's fair too, but just looking at history of the award, only 1 player that

Ya I understand what you’re saying...and I did exaggerate a bit on saying 15

Raw numbers can’t be trusted. Pace/scoring is way up. Mitchell is not an mvp

PHXSUNS31

4/15/21 12:36pm

look at per 100 possessions stats and it adjusts for pace and scoring being up. Mitchell is still putting up some

4/15/21 1:07pm

Ya I have no problem with that. Just not an mvp level right now is all.

I think Donny is doing a swell job positioning himself for a future MVP run. He has some work to do still.

4/15/21 12:46pm

His numbers aren't nearly good enough.

Jay Kay

4/15/21 12:29pm

It’s not Paul. It should 100% be Jokic. No other contenders honestly
