1st place vote given to SGA by: Stephen A Smith, Kendrick Perkins. LOL.
If Jokic won two in a row and they're sharing the wealth, then why not give it to Luka?
PTS/G: Luka 33.9, SGA 30.1
AST/G: Luka 9.8, SGA 6.2
TRB/G: Luka 9.2, SGA 5.5
eFG%: Luka .573, SGA .567
PER: Luka 28.1, SGA 29.3
WS/48: Luka 0.220, SGA 0.275
BPM: Luka 9.9, SGA 9.0
VORP: Luka 8.0, SGA 7.1
Another point to consider. Luka been carrying his team for years, despite being almost a year younger than SGA, while SGA's team been tanking to collect the talent that has helped them get to that 1st seed.
They did give it to another guy before he won three in a row - Embiid is the reigning MVP from last season. Then Jokic won his championship and now we‘ll win his third in four seasons.
