In the recently concluded NBA regular season MVP selection, the star of the Oklahoma City Thunder, Shay Kyrgyz Alexander, was unfortunately unselected, and this result caused widespread controversy. Although Alexander's performance during the season was impressive, he did not win the highest honor in basketball, much to the regret of many fans and the media. At the same time, two of Alexander's teammates gave a thumbs-up after the game, which pushed the controversy to a climax
Alexander's performance this season has been nothing short of spectacular, and he has led the Thunder to a great record with his scoring ability and leadership. However, in the MVP selection, he ultimately lost to Nikola Jokic of the Denver Nuggets. Jokic, last season's MVP winner, has also performed well this season, but Alexander's loss still baffles many
After the game, two of Alexander's teammates gave thumbs up in front of the camera, clearly unhappy with the results. The move immediately drew media attention and raised questions about the fairness of the MVP selectionAt the same time, NBA legend Shaquille O'Neal also spoke directly on social media, questioning Jokic's award, arguing that Alexander is also eligible for the honor.
O'Neal wrote on social media: "Jokic is a great player, but Alexander is just as goodI think the MVP selection should be more fair, not just based on stats and results. Alexandra has done an excellent job leading the team and he deserves more recognition. The remarks immediately sparked heated discussions among netizens, with many supporting O'Neal's opinion that Alexander deserves the MVP.
In fact, MVP selection has always been a highly controversial task. The selection criteria cover personal data such as scores, assists, and rebounds, as well as team records, leadership, and other factors. However, these factors are not equally weighted in everyone's mind, which makes it difficult for everyone to be satisfied with the results. _
Alexander's failure to be selected as MVP is undoubtedly a personal regret for him. But as his team-mates and O'Neill said, that doesn't mean he wasn't good enough. On the contrary, Alexander's performances during the season are proof enough that he is a top player. His scoring ability, leadership, and love for the game are impressive. And the tenacity and perseverance he showed in the face of setbacks made people full of respect for him.
In addition, we should also realize that MVP is not the only measure of a player's value. Although Alexander did not receive this honor, his strength and ability have been recognized by the majority of fans and the media. In future competitions, he still has a chance to prove himself and lead the Thunder to better results.
In short, Alexander's absence from MVP has caused widespread controversy, but that doesn't overshadow his stellar season performance. The support of his teammates and O'Neill also shows us the demand from fans and the media for a fair selection. In the days ahead, we look forward to seeing Alexander continue to shine and bring more exciting games to the fans."
