Great article. I'm curious what you think of the argument about MVP made on Dunc'd-On that, Jokic is a better player, but SGA may be more valuable because, essentially, there's more opportunity cost in playing Jokic.

Because Center is such an important position defensively, it's hard to construct a Jokic team that's great on both ends whereas SGA is both great individually and takes less away from the roster-building puzzle.

I guess the obvious counter-argument is that the Nuggets _just_ won the title in '23.

I'm riding the weaselly wagon on this MVP vote. Split it. Both Jokich and Shai are doing amazing things night in and night out against teams determined to stop them. In terms of value and impact both are deserving.
