A few days ago, Warriors star Green talked about the topic of regular season MVP candidates in a personal podcast program, and for which players are currently competitive with MVP, Green is now also giving his own list of candidates. Green said on the show that without specific ranking picks, the Nuggets' Jokic, 76ers' Embiid, the Grizzlies' Morant, and the Bulls' DeRozan will be his first-tier MVP candidates.
"We all know the front-runners to MVP, and for me, the following are the candidates who don't have a special ranking, and Morant, DeRozan, Embiid, Jokic are also under discussion." Green said so. It is worth mentioning that in the latest NBA regular season MVP list, these 4 players are also all in the top 5 of the MVP list, of which Jokic is the 1st in the MVP list, the 2nd in Embiid, the 4th in DeRozan, and the 5th in Morant. Only the No. 3 Bucks star alphabet brother, who is not on Green's MVP candidate list now.
However, according to the current performance and data, the most likely to win the regular season MVP trophy is obviously Embiid or Jokic, as long as the next two of them do not suffer injury problems, and the team's record does not have a sharp decline, then basically the MVP trophy is the final peak of the two of them. At present, whether it is Embiid or Jokic, it seems that they are likely to win this regular season MVP trophy, and other stars may be difficult to play the dark horse role in this year's MVP selection.
Of course, under the two major interior stars of Jokic and Embiid, the stars such as Alphabet Brother, DeRozan, and Morant can be regarded as the existence of the second gear, but although the data records of these stars are also very beautiful, it is helpless to compete with Jokic and Embiid in the end. In this regard, do you think which player is most likely to win the MVP trophy, in the list of 4 people given by Green, who do you think should be chosen to become the regular season MVP player this season?
