If I had a dollar for every time Jokic lost an MVP to a free throw merchant I’d have 2 dollars which isn’t a lot but it’s weird it has happened twice 🤔

It’s really just voter/narrative fatigue

He’s clearly the best player in the league. Shai is a worthy MVP and leading the best regular season team is worth a lot, but Jokic is the most valuable player in the NBA, no question. But because he’s already won a few times and the Nuggets weren’t great in the regular season, they give it to someone else
