Russell Westbrook has been MVP, scoring champion, and even made the NBA finals at one point, but his last year was tragic. Where did it go wrong?

We should be giving Jokic his flowers for being one of the best centers of all time, yet he gets disrespected for whatever reason.

Winning an MVP award is extremely difficult, but earning a second one is even harder to accomplish. A year ago, the novelty of Shohei Ohtani dominating as both a pitcher and a hitter was the talk of baseball, and he won the American League MVP unanimously.

Now let’s look at their defensive numbers ● Nikola Jokic: 1.4 steals, 0.8 blocks, 107.9 defensive rating, 0.115 defensive win shares, per NBA ● Joel Embiid: 1.4 steals, 1.1 blocks, 107.3 defensive rating, 0.121 defensive win shares, per NBA ● Giannis Antetokounmpo: 1.4 steals, 1.1 blocks, 107.7 defensive rating 0.118 defensive win shares, per NBA Again, compatible stats.

DeMar is honestly having the best season out of any of the MVP candidates. He checks off every single box in the MVP voting.

The Pro Football Writers Association voted Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers as the 2021 NFL League MVP.

If you believe the bookmakers and all the analysts, the NFL MVP race is down to Aaron Rodgers, Jonathan Taylor, Tom Brady, and Cooper Kupp. But shouldn’t Josh Allen be considered a legitimate candidate?

When you think of the MVP award, it has to go to the guy who not only is performing the best throughout the entire season, and besides a couple of hiccups Allen has. Criteria that should be taken into consideration is what the player did during the most crucial times of the season. Buffalo was clinging to a playoff spot, they were looking up at the Patriots in the AFC East, and things seemed to be sliding out of control. Now Bills are first in the East, and control their own destiny.

Should the NFL MVP finally go to a non-quarterback? Colts running back: Jonathan Taylor has been gaining traction across the league.
