The entire NBA ecosystem seems to have unanimously decided that there’s no shot for Embiid to win consecutive MVPs, especially after this year’s playoffs where Embiid underperformed, while his most direct competitor established himself both as a champion, and as the top-dog in the league

But the one thing NBA has consistently proven, is that it’s very tricky to predict (notwithstanding the Warriors superserum run), and there very well maybe a future where we’re watching Joel Embiid hoist up that award once again come May.

So what do you guys think, realistically needs to happen with the Sixers, Embiid himself and the rest of his competition this regular season, for him to win a second MVP?

      I don’t think so.

      The voters have been clowned and dunked on the whole offseason for picking Embiid. Fatigue still exists for Jokic and Giannis, it doesn’t just evaporate.

      My opinion is, that the MVP voters are very open to crowning someone new.

        Sure, if those new candidates have historic seasons like Embiid (and Jokic) had.

        Also I don’t think it matters if people clowned someone for their vote. Outside of Mark Jackson. Who isn’t going to forget Jokic this year (Assuming he still has a vote).
