According to the famous report, Jokic became the MVP winner of this season's regular season, Jokic deserved to receive this honor, because his performance this season is too good, in the team's two top salaries Porter and Murray can not play, Jokic carried the team forward banner, he did his best to help the team win the game, although the Nuggets only ranked sixth in the West, but the number of wins also reached 48 games, such a result is not bad, in the case of a single core, He helped the team eventually reach the playoffs, of all 16 teams to enter the playoffs, the Nuggets are the only team with a single core, in the fiercely competitive NBA league, Jokic with his personal ability to single core to lead the team into the playoffs, he is very good at leading the team.
After winning this year's regular season MVP, Jokic also successfully won this honor, becoming the 13th player in the history of the league to do so, and Jokic is also the fourth player in the active league to win the MVP honor. So the question is, before Jokic, who were the other 3 active players who won the MVP honor? Let's take a look at it today.
Before Jokic, James, Curry and Alphabet Brother have all done two consecutive years to get the regular season MVP, of which James has done it twice, in the 08-09 season and the 09-10 season, James got the MVP for two consecutive years, and in the 11-12 season and the 12-13 season, James got the MVP for two consecutive years, in a total of 5 years, in addition to the 10-11 season Rose got the MVP, James was the most valuable player in the regular season for the remaining 4 years, very dominant, He is also the player with the most MVPs in the active league.
After James, Curry in the 14-15 and 15-16 seasons, he also successfully won the regular season MVP for two consecutive years, in the 15-16 season, Curry was unanimously elected, in that season he performed very brightly, in addition to not being able to win the championship, Curry did the best in other aspects. Before Jokic got the MVP, he also won the regular season MVP for two consecutive years. This season, Alphabet Brother also entered the top three of the MVP list, but unfortunately, Alphabet Brother eventually lost to Jokic and did not get the third MVP of his career.
I don't know if you have found that James, Curry and Alphabet Brother, these three players have led the team to the championship, after the regular season proved themselves, they also showed their ability to lead the team on the playoff stage. After Jokic won the MVP for two consecutive years, he has not been able to help the team win the championship in the playoffs so far, and the best result of Jokic's playoff career is the Western Conference Finals, and he has not yet been able to lead the team to the Finals, and there is still a certain distance from the championship.
Jokic has won the regular season MVP for two consecutive years, although it is well deserved in the eyes of most people, but in the minds of a small number of media and fans, this is very controversial, because as the fourth player to win the MVP in the active duty, he has not been able to prove himself in the playoffs and did not lead the team to the championship.
It is worth mentioning that the first 12 players in the history of the league have won championships, and Jokic has become the only Lianzhuang MVP who has not won the championship. For Jokic, he wants to prove that he is the MVP of Lianzhuang, who is worth it, and needs a championship to justify himself. The Nuggets have been eliminated this season, and looking forward to next season, Jokic can help the Nuggets move towards the championship.
