The votes are in and your philosophy is defeated, so it's time to discuss the new metric "Wins Conserved"

Steph Curry couldn't win 50 games without Klay, Nets with Kyrie were not world beaters, and Lakers without AD were out of the playoffs (and now defeated in round one)

Nikola Jokic on the other hand was able to keep the Nuggets stable and on the same if not similar track to last year without Jamal Murray, who scored 30+ points multiple times in last year's playoffs and was set to be an All Star based on the reporting. This conservation of wins shows that Nikola Jokic is the MVP by elevating and amplifying the skills of his counterparts.

see the evolution of MPJ, Monte, Facu, and Howard next to the powerful Jokic... Total scrubs elevated. A talent unseen since prime Lebron

Sure you may wear down Embiid, but the Sixers are resting their star player (Shake) so I'm not sure what this really accomplishes

DALLAS—Claiming the top spot for immigrant-hopefuls for an eighth consecutive year, Amnesty International released a report Wednesday which found that the easiest path to a U.S. work visa was still signing with the Dallas Mavericks. “Our findings show that the Dallas Mavericks account for 91% of Eastern European immigration,” said head researcher Bill Knodle, noting that Mavs players outnumbered students and agricultural workers combined in the number of visas awarded. “While marrying an American citizen can speed up the green card process, you’re still much better playing spot minutes behind Luka Dončić. Dallas players also have an easier time getting extensions on their work visas to participate in the NBA playoffs.” In a related report, a study found playing for the New York Knicks was still the easiest route to secure a Chinese work visa.
