2:03pm, 19 May 2025【Basketball】

The MVP belongs this season, because the development of the schedule is in trouble. The delay in the issuance of the MVP makes the ownership of this honor more and more difficult to determine. The "war" between Alexander and Jokic also gave fans and judges a headache.

Originally, Thunder had an excellent opportunity to resolve the battle when it was G6. Alexander was in good shape at that time, and it would be natural for him to win the MVP if the Thunder could end the series in G6. At that time, his performance was amazing, leading the team to make great progress, and his data and on-field influence were obvious to all. The MVP trophy seemed to be waving to him.

However, the Nuggets became the "scrambler". They stubbornly dragged the series into tiebreak. Jokic showed his powerful bursting attributes in the tiebreak battle. He was like the team's stabilizing needle, saving the Nuggets again and again with his outstanding performance. This undoubtedly makes the MVP's ownership more complicated and adds many variables to the subsequent selection.

Alexander has full MVP confidence. He was the scoring leader and led the team to the league's first record. Such a result has been enough to make him a well-deserved MVP in previous seasons. He has a strong scoring ability on the field, and he can easily score various difficult goals. He is the team's reliance at critical moments, and his strength and results are there.

But history always has similarities, which makes people worry. After winning the MVP on the

, he was defeated by Dameng in the playoffs. Now, if Alexander wins the MVP but is eliminated by Jokic in the playoffs, the situation will be embarrassing. This makes people wonder whether the MVP selection should include playoff performance as an important consideration?

Now, the ownership of MVP is in a dilemma. Given to Alexander, Jokic's outstanding performance in the tiebreak cannot be ignored, and the Nuggets have also shown strong competitiveness; on Jokic, Alexander's scoring champion and league first record are so dazzling, it seems difficult to convince the public without choosing him. No matter who you end up giving the trophy, you will face controversy.

And the final result of the series will also have a significant impact on the ownership of MVP. If the Thunder wins eventually, Alexander's chances of winning the MVP will be greatly increased; if the Nuggets have the last laugh, Jokic may be even more convincing. Who can finally win the MVP trophy can only wait for the dust to settle in the series and let time give the answer.
