If they keep the Brown and give him a supermax, they won't win any title period.

Jokic???

I knew this would happen to Jokic. I do NOT think he deserved his first MVP. But then after giving him that one, they had to give it to him the second time around (which I DO think he deserved). This year he is definitely MVP in the truest sense of the word and based on every other criteria that has ever been used... overall stats, winning team, team tanking the moment he steps off the court, etc. And yet, the year he will likely get Finals MVP and win a ring, they decide to not give him another league MVP because he got 2 already...
