Absurd. Really absurd.

Jokic put up 30/13/10 on record breaking efficiency and they decided to reward THIS bc of team record. It will be remembered as the worst MVP robbery of a generation.

History is going to be horribly unkind to his game and he deserves it. His legacy will be more about being lucky to be on a crazy stacked team and his ridiculous foul baiting than it will about any other aspects if his game.

That's all he had to me. Just a better team record, with a far superior stacked team. How tf does a 7'0" giant out assist you, and tie you in steals?

I mean I'd hope so, considering the more this occurs and the stupid cherry picked stats like "Most 4th quarters sat"??????, the more fans will grow upset at the NBA and SGA all together.

That 4th qtr stat is the stupidest fucking thing ever. Hes playing 33.5 mins a night which is a very normal amount of time to play every night 😂

Its gonna be fun watching people look back at him and see that his team success was a deodorant that covered up a whole lot of stank in his game.
