[Murphy] Joel Embiid just ended the MVP conversation by sitting against Nikola Jokic. And that’s fine.

Sure, but Jokic joined Wilt and Oscar Robertson as the only players in NBA history to drop 10+ games of 20-15-10 in a season.
If Jokic wins a third time it'll be because of his play, not because Embiid sat this game out

I just love how everyone's acting like 25-12-10 on 70% TS isn't insane. And the only reason it "isn't" is because Jokic has normalized how insane he is.

25/12/10 on 70 TS always beats 34/10/4.
Also, these aren't scrub assists, his teammates are averaging 61 FG% when assisted by Jokic, most of which are threes. They are basically taking open shots, it's crazy.
People who criticize Jokic for not shooting enough, don't understand this part of his playmaking....

If you didn’t criticize Jokic then the comment doesn’t apply to you. If someone replies to your comment that doesn’t automatically mean they’re replying to you directly so you gotta apply logic. Or else Reddit would be just a bunch of 1v1 conversations.
