 moving on to the. Looks like the third time MVP Nicola Jokic game winning three against the magic time expiring also had a seventh career triple double last night magic head coach Mosley said after the game and MVP type player makes the MVP type play. That's what it came down to him. This conversation will go on until the awards are handed out. But Chandler is Jokic starting to really distance himself in this thing. I think so. And I think this season it's it's it's so close because every night every week one of these MVP finalist guys has an explosive night has a crazy night where it makes this thing. Maybe you know maybe he's in the lead now maybe he's you know you know so it kind of keeps going back and forth. But when you watch your kids last night the guy took 11 shots. He went 8 for 11. He's so efficient the way he plays. We really have never seen a big play like this where you can initiate the offense through him. He gets the rebound. He takes it coast to coast. He's the guy's shooting 62% from the field because he doesn't take bad shots. He doesn't force his vision is unbelievable. At the beginning of the season I was I was finding every excuse to be like no way I can give this guy a third MVP. Someone else give it to a Luca give it to a Tata who's having a great year on the best team. I can't this guy is unbelievable. He's averaging 25. He's averaging a triple double. They're the best team in the Western Conference and he makes everybody around him so much better. It's not just one of these guys with God he stashed his putting up 4050. This guy is making his team better. He's making his team the best team in the Western Conference pretty much for the majority of the season. And it's so impressive what he's doing. So yeah I think it's him and I think it's truly remarkable that he could possibly win three in a row. That is unheard of. Look at that. Yeah I think I think I think he's running away with it. I mean I've been calling the MVP a narrative award for some time and the narrative is building and the only narrative block he had was voter fatigue and now the voters are fighting back at voter fatigue. They're saying yo that's not a real thing that shouldn't exist. This is in a vacuum. Doesn't matter like suddenly we've shifted the narratives. Last year the narrative was like yo they would have never been in the sixth seed. If he wasn't there and he wins the MVP this year it's well he's the one seed and he has the best that so now he's the MVP. I'm not trying to diminish what he's doing. He's playing incredibly well. But if you just look at the way people vote and the things that they weigh when they do that Luca is seven games back in the standing. So if you had him as close that's that's a big enough gap. Jason Tatum were already kind of writing him off as a competitor here for the award. Kevin just went down for two three maybe four weeks. And so who is left Yannis they're slipping in their up and down all season long. The MVP is his to lose at this point halfway through the season. And it's it's you know it's kind of like the coronation of Yolk it's right now. And like all the things Chandler said he's having some trouble. No we've got the best record in the West. He's looking incredible night in night out. And so I get it. I can hear the noise. I can see the noise. I can see the narrative already building up. Help if he remains healthy. That award is his. Let's talk about the other awards. And the combo is already over as far as I'm concerned. Wow. All right. How about how stoic. How about how stoic he was like he hits that it's a crazy shot game winner. And he's just has no reaction at all. I love I love the fact that Nikola Yolk is going to just be him unabashed. And so shout out to Nikola Yolk for that. But I think if this team is a number one seed in the West it's hard not to look at him as the MVP for sure. And I know if you're Nikola Yolk and the Denver Nuggets the expectations that they've set on themselves is trying to win a championship. So they've been to the conference hours before if they get the number one seed individual accolades are cool but I know what this team is going to be going for what Calvin Booth is going to be aiming for is try to get this team to a championship. And so those are going to be the expectations especially if they get the number one seed but it's going to be tough to deny Nikola Yolk of an MVP if they're the number one seed in the West. By the way the Nuggets have been doing a good job of putting out content. There's a pop culture contest between he and Jamal Murray that just shows his person. I mean his personality it's something it's funny to watch and it's adorable and that's all I have to say because it sounds creepy after that. I'm taking a quick break right here but we've got the latest on my favorite thing in the whole wide world the slam dunk contest and the latest edition of that man has a family when we return.
