No it isn’t. He’s a good player but he gets 10+ points a game with that BS. It’s a huge part of his game and without it he’s not an MVP candidate.
It’s bad for basketball to give these fools that weak arse shite and it was supposed to be removed from the game, they don’t get this call in FIBA. It’s not a basketball move and the offensive player is initiating contact. It’s a weak arse thing to rely on. Not saying he’s a bad player just saying he’s not a legit MVP candidate without weak arse baiting for fouls.

Well all it took last year was the clown Kendrick Perkins to start the chatter and guilt trip the voters.
This is revisionist history. Joel scored 33/10 on a team that won more games than the Nuggets last year. The race between Joel and Jokic would've been close either way it went.
Not to mention the media didn't want to give 3 MVPs in a row to a guy who never made it to the finals, and the year before Jokic was gentleman swept in the first round.

Wrong. He got 7.6 per game. Jokic got 4.6
Even without free throws he scores more than jokic per game and led the league in steals.
As I said in the first post jokic is the mvp lock. But calling Shai just a foul merchant is dumb

Shai is pretty safely gonna finish #2. Close to jokic than Luka.

Jokic will win this year, book it.
And embiid winning last year had nothing to do with racism. Get the chip off your shoulder.
They had similarly great seasons but embiid won because of voter fatigue.
It’s the same reason lebron and shaq don’t have more mvps.
Go back and compare Lebrons stats to d rose when rose won. Lebron deserved that mvp but voters are weird about giving it to the same guy a bunch

Yep
And I dont have a problem with it. MVP is a huge achievement for anyone to get one. It wouldnt be great to see a lot of guys never get a chance to win one just because they were in their prime the same time Lebron was for 15 years

Eddie this looks like it is for Finals MVP.

The NBA has already announced the three finalists and Tatum isn't one of them.

Shai drives more than anyone in the league so he's going to get more whistles. He's still 3rd in the NBA in ppg without free throws.

You're just repeating things you see on the internet, try watching a game.

Shai is one of the best mid range shooters in the league

All I can see is a bunch of racists in this thread who can’t admit that the best players in the NBA are white. Gotta give a black guy a participation trophy or a multi million dollar athlete and media will cry about how oppressed he is.

I watched him do it multiple times to the Pels on Sunday and he got to the free throw line without even getting touched at the end of the game so it’s not like he has to bait for fouls.
