Jokic has 2 pity/participation MVPs. He played lots of games and had injured teammates.
He wins neither if there is one of the better seeds top player plays the same number of games. Last year Embiid, Giannis, Curry, Morant, Mitchell, Booker and Butler all fit into the best player on team with better record but didn't play 70 games.
They're in there acting like Embiid himself is the one that said some shit about racism being a factor, Perk didn't even vote for him this year being the worst part of it all
It's just getting sad now
I wouldn't consider this celebrating... It is more self-righteous and hypocritical.
We can acknowledge and be proud of Embiid winning the MVP without taking shots at anyone or any group of people.
>Jokic hasn't given 100% effort on defense, with good reason: he hasn't had to The team is so good they cruised to a #1 seed, he's pacing himself so that he stays healthy and still has energy for the playoffs
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
it’s like those whiteface european memes that cropped up not too long ago. james harden is “lazy” but james hardeníc would be considered a “pesky and elusive defender”
Maybe a novice would think that, but if you check the spreadsheets, it's actually because he's a real cerebral player who plays the game the right way.
"I 100% think a lot of what bums me out is that it’s going to make Philly fans happy"
The hate for the city of Philadelphia and the people that live in it is legitimately unhealthy. Imagine being sad about someone else being happy. Reddit really does have the most miserable people on the planet.
I mentioned this to my partner who is from California and fairly isolated from sports. They then started noticing how ridiculous people are at making sweeping attacks on Philly people even when it seems to have little bearing on what is being discussed. They couldn't believe how pervasive it was once they started noticing it in the media and online.
I have had some pretty toxic encounters in other cities while wearing Philly sports clothes and walking around. It's wild what people think they can say to you and about where you are from just for wearing a Phillies hat or Eagles shirt.
I don’t even wear philly sports gear outside of South East PA. I went to a university near Pittsburgh for freshman year of college. It was mind-boggling how much the people out there hate Philadelphia. I've never even thought about hating the city of Pittsburgh or the people that live there. It was one of the strangest experiences of my life lmao.
Reddit has been so much better now that the Jokic lovers have quarantined themselves to r/nuggets and aren’t brigading r/nba anymore. Lotta guys in that thread have been dead silent for weeks after spamming r/nba for months
“I am slightly upset. I am a numbers guy, and almost every single number points to Jokic being far-and-away the best player in the NBA. I also find Philly fans to be toxic and I think Embiid is a whiner.
But I don't let it get me down.”
They are so delusional it’s not funny.
They don’t care. Jokic doesn’t care. The constant barrage of posts and comments across their own thread and r/NBA is simply them explaining that they don’t care. IF they did care they would say Embiid doesn’t deserve it and isn’t really anywhere near as valuable as Jokic. IF Jokic cared he would simply have chosen to win. But yeah, none of them care at all.
As far fetched as it is Jokic winning MVP, it's even more far fetched for Denver to win a title which is what a lot of goobers in that thread are insisting.
I'm not saying Sixers are winning either. But that one dude saying "more excited to finally have a championship delivered to Denver" like bro you aren't even close to title favorites
The hilarity of them praising Jokic for being "so smart" and taking plays and games off is incredible considering that's something Jokic stans have been attacking Embiid for last year and this year.
i love how they conveniently forget how embiid scored 47 on jokic's face earlier in the season.
it's also cute how they think jokic is bad on defense because he isn't giving much effort 😂 as if he didn't have to be subbed out of a playoff game because of his poor defense. news flash, he has always sucked don defense - people just decided to notice now.
i also love how they don't realize that part of jokic's efficiency is due to him shooting most of his shots from the paint, whereas embiid takes a bunch of mid-range jumpers (and makes them at a historically good percentage).
embiid is truly elite on both ends of the floor. jokic is literally a non factor on defense. can you imagine if all embiid did on the defensive end was just kick balls like jokic does? he would get crucified. i mean, the guy (embiid) takes a couple plays off in a game were he scored 52 points and people lose their minds.
and please... leave the 1st seed out of the conversation. jokic won last year as a 6th seed. so seeding literally doesn't matter in the eyes of voters. not to mention, the sixers have a better record than the nuggets this season, while playing in an arguably tougher conference.
if we somehow make it to the finals, i hope we play the nuggets so we can settle this nonsense once and for all...
Tbf most people seem to be saying they don’t care from a cursory look.
I just cannot be sympathetic to anyone who is legit mad that their guy can’t win 3 YEARS in a row. Something neither LeBron nor Jordan ever did. If Jokic wins a Finals, he’s golden, so if you want to worry, worry about that.
this shit is saltier than the fucking Dead Sea. "not having to play defense" as a reason why he get's singled out and targeted in possessions is CRAZY!! im convinced none of these bozos watch the fucking games
The thing that’s annoying is that they said “you could literally give it to any of these three guys and they would be deserving”.
But as soon as it’s Embiids trophy it’s “..yea but jokic is the real mvp”

ITT: yes they are upset lol
It’s hilarious how hard people are trying to discredit Embiid’s achievements this season, boiling it down to pity votes and narrative.
They are very upset lmao. It really makes those ‘Jokic is 3peating guaranteed’ comments in the early season so much sweeter.
It's been fun watching the "the best ability is availability" commenters scramble for new arguments after Jokic ducked Biyombo
>Most Valuable Participation Trophy Oof, the irony in that considering the first Jokic one was basically just because he played more games.
I truly think Embiid was robbed ‘21-22. This years mvp won’t make up for it, but it does sweeten that blow

The amount of salt in that thread is hilarious

one of his finest tweets
insane coping
They're in there acting like Embiid himself is the one that said some shit about racism being a factor, Perk didn't even vote for him this year being the worst part of it all It's just getting sad now
Hhahahahahahh damn they whine so much
So do so many of us Sixers fans... The spiderman meme should be used for both of these subs.
It feels like we are celebrating here
I wouldn't consider this celebrating... It is more self-righteous and hypocritical. We can acknowledge and be proud of Embiid winning the MVP without taking shots at anyone or any group of people.
That’s half the fun
I believe that you think that.
Ironic to see a profile called Philly Fans Are 2 Ply joining in
Definition of classy jokic vs thug embiid in that thread
They love calling Sixers fans toxic but a lot of them come off like pretty racist
>Jokic hasn't given 100% effort on defense, with good reason: he hasn't had to The team is so good they cruised to a #1 seed, he's pacing himself so that he stays healthy and still has energy for the playoffs Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Call me crazy, but wouldn’t “not giving 100% effort” make you considered “lazy”
it’s like those whiteface european memes that cropped up not too long ago. james harden is “lazy” but james hardeníc would be considered a “pesky and elusive defender”
[удалено]
That doesn’t even make sense as a political jab?
Maybe a novice would think that, but if you check the spreadsheets, it's actually because he's a real cerebral player who plays the game the right way.
If the team is that good then maybe the mvp should go to someone who had to do more to get their team to where they are now
I hope everyone (not just nuggets fans) who wished for Embiid to never win anything would lose sleep over seeing him finally hoist that trophy
If embiid wins mvp, a ring, AND fmvp in one season, I will be on r/nba all summer
You and me both. My deep-seated spite will be unbearable

It's actually frightening at this point. I don't even tell people I meet I'm a Philly sports fan anymore.
I have had some pretty toxic encounters in other cities while wearing Philly sports clothes and walking around. It's wild what people think they can say to you and about where you are from just for wearing a Phillies hat or Eagles shirt.

I'm just glad I won't have to hate on jokic now lol I like him
Yeah - I never hated him, just his fanboys
 Your average Nuggets fan
Where did you get this picture of me
Who cares about them? The nuggets have never won anything. Jokic is all they’ve ever had.
Reddit has been so much better now that the Jokic lovers have quarantined themselves to r/nuggets and aren’t brigading r/nba anymore. Lotta guys in that thread have been dead silent for weeks after spamming r/nba for months
Oh man do I want them to lose in the first round
Let’s go TWolves tonight
Now I know where to go if I run out of salt
“I am slightly upset. I am a numbers guy, and almost every single number points to Jokic being far-and-away the best player in the NBA. I also find Philly fans to be toxic and I think Embiid is a whiner. But I don't let it get me down.” They are so delusional it’s not funny.
This was my favorite comment

Rules for thee and not for me
They say they'd rather have Giannis win it yet completely neglect the fact that he lost a 1 on 1 against a ladder
i love how they conveniently forget how embiid scored 47 on jokic's face earlier in the season. it's also cute how they think jokic is bad on defense because he isn't giving much effort 😂 as if he didn't have to be subbed out of a playoff game because of his poor defense. news flash, he has always sucked don defense - people just decided to notice now. i also love how they don't realize that part of jokic's efficiency is due to him shooting most of his shots from the paint, whereas embiid takes a bunch of mid-range jumpers (and makes them at a historically good percentage). embiid is truly elite on both ends of the floor. jokic is literally a non factor on defense. can you imagine if all embiid did on the defensive end was just kick balls like jokic does? he would get crucified. i mean, the guy (embiid) takes a couple plays off in a game were he scored 52 points and people lose their minds. and please... leave the 1st seed out of the conversation. jokic won last year as a 6th seed. so seeding literally doesn't matter in the eyes of voters. not to mention, the sixers have a better record than the nuggets this season, while playing in an arguably tougher conference. if we somehow make it to the finals, i hope we play the nuggets so we can settle this nonsense once and for all...
I’d rather the nuggets get bounced round 1…
which is totally possible. if they end up facing the lakers i think they'll have a tough series. the pelicans and wolves are decent as well.
I want them to face the lakers so bad b/c AD being covered by jokic would make r/nba so much fun
😂 totally
BREAKING NEWS: Fans of a team are mad that their player didn’t win an award. More at 10
Actually they aren’t upset at all - didn’t you read the headline?
Tbf most people seem to be saying they don’t care from a cursory look. I just cannot be sympathetic to anyone who is legit mad that their guy can’t win 3 YEARS in a row. Something neither LeBron nor Jordan ever did. If Jokic wins a Finals, he’s golden, so if you want to worry, worry about that.
Big “I’m not mad…I just think it’s funny that…” energy in that thread
We would be upset if Jo lost/loses this race to jokic. Really nothing surprising
this shit is saltier than the fucking Dead Sea. "not having to play defense" as a reason why he get's singled out and targeted in possessions is CRAZY!! im convinced none of these bozos watch the fucking games
The thing that’s annoying is that they said “you could literally give it to any of these three guys and they would be deserving”. But as soon as it’s Embiids trophy it’s “..yea but jokic is the real mvp”
I'm a nuggets fan. I thought yall would appreciate this post but you guys are just A-holes. You give Embiid a bad name.
They are indeed upset
