[Charania] Philadelphia 76ers’ Joel Embiid has won the 2022-23 NBA MVP award.

I remember in the middle of last decade everyone was saying the big men’s era was gone. Now we have a 5 year streak of big men winning MVP. What a crazy stretch

Wazflame · 2023-05-02T23:04:51+00:00

International dominance continues - who do y'all think will be the next American MVP?

LOLHoNLOL · 2023-05-02T23:03:48+00:00

Finally it’s over.

Walker Kessler was fucking robbed

beamingleanin · 2023-05-02T23:07:17+00:00

One more MVP and he'll be officially eliminated from future MVP races

abekku · 2023-05-02T23:47:52+00:00

One of my worst takes in 2015 was saying KAT was going to be better than Embiid and Jokic. Oh how times have changed!

TwinPeakyBlinders · 2023-05-02T23:06:01+00:00

Great 24 hours for Sixers fans

jtiets · 2023-05-02T23:10:05+00:00

I feel like Frodo after destroying the ring

Develled · 2023-05-02T23:17:08+00:00

Im just glad that we have amazing trio Giannis, Jok & Embiid now with MVP awards... Feels right and complete I dont know how else to describe it, congrats!

Tundraaa · 2023-05-02T23:03:54+00:00

Zhugo your job is done.

GGezpzMuppy · 2023-05-02T23:03:31+00:00

Damn I was sure Bran was gonna get it, no one else had a better story.

I’m glad I ain’t no voter and just get to watch amazing performances every night from these three superstars. They all deserve the MVP and glad to see Joel get his as it’s well deserved.

RayCashhhh · 2023-05-02T23:05:32+00:00

21! CAN YOU DO SOMETHING FOR ME!

PlatChat · 2023-05-02T23:04:07+00:00

Cue the incessant debate all the way into the middle of next season

OG__Swoosh · 2023-05-03T03:21:00+00:00

Perkins sleeping peacefully tonight

crimsonconnect · 2023-05-02T23:05:14+00:00

Sleepy Joel won the very very fake MVP award, when Everyone knows what really happened. Adam Silver didnt have the Courage to do what was Right! Sad!

-Jokic

IndycarFan64 · 2023-05-02T23:24:29+00:00

3rd straight time someone from the 2014 draft class has won it

amaye2187 · 2023-05-02T23:21:51+00:00

Shoutout Cameroon!!! International players are running the NBA. Proud of Joel, man.

FrequentDefinition9 · 2023-05-02T23:07:05+00:00

That’s my pity MVP!

slyfailure · 2023-05-03T02:06:21+00:00

Well deserved, but whoever didn't vote for Jokic at all should lose his MVP vote (Perkins?), even if you thought that Embiid, Giannis and Jokic weren't the top 3, the idea that any of them weren't one of the top 5 players this season is just ridiculous.

jaomile · 2023-05-02T23:21:38+00:00

Game 1 vs Boston showed how valuable he is to 76ers. Celtics were just scoring easy buckets in the paint. Celtics collapsed and Harden went back in time to secure the win, but his lack of presence was felt.

Wish to face 76ers in the finals for true face off.

methodeum · 2023-05-02T23:03:37+00:00

Respect. Dominant and elite both sides of the court.

guitarhero22701 · 2023-05-02T23:54:19+00:00

75 -15 first place votes. They were never giving that mvp to jokic

arebee20 · 2023-05-03T00:34:05+00:00

Announcing the MVP in the middle of the playoffs is weird to me. Instead of this news dropping after the regular season and Embiid getting the praise he deserves for an outstanding season a lot of people are just going to say "meh, Jokic is better he just stepped off the gas to be ready for the playoffs or he would've won MVP" because of how well Jokic is playing right now.

KangorKodos · 2023-05-02T23:20:19+00:00

People are going to say a lot of nonsense and say this was voter fatigue. But the man went off this year. Incredible year, and deserved MVP, just happened to be in a year where there were 2 other people who would have deserved an MVP, but people in the future are going to act like this was some kind of robbery, and not a coin flip. Which is going to be bullshit.

thejackel225 · 2023-05-02T23:09:04+00:00

takes a deep breath Jokic is awesome

carasc5 · 2023-05-03T03:46:27+00:00

I can't believe Kendrick Perkins of all people decided the mvp race

jackgap · 2023-05-02T23:03:39+00:00

TROEL EMBIID

Brad-Stevens · 2023-05-02T23:04:10+00:00

No one's ever wanted it more

From where his career started, it's remarkable

From the meme/twitter guy to a DOMINANT big

2023-05-03T05:02:22+00:00

If Jokic didn't win the last 2 he would be MVP

nnewman19 · 2023-05-02T23:04:12+00:00

Well folks, the MOST MVP race is finally over

So happy Joel finally got his and can be properly etched into this era of big men revival

HotSwordfish23 · 2023-05-03T00:59:28+00:00

Congrats Kendrick Perkins lol

GarfieldFromGarfield · 2023-05-02T23:10:51+00:00

didn’t play the first two years of his career and nearly retired when his brother passed away; he’s overcome unbelievable adversity throughout his career and i’ve never been happier to see a man rep my city with every ounce of his effort and being

SlavaRapTarantino · 2023-05-02T23:04:44+00:00

As Bill Simmons stated, the MVP award now means less than it ever has before.

WhereAreMaKeys · 2023-05-02T23:13:46+00:00

Kendrick Perkins crying in the Wendy's bathroom rn.

Duzblimpin · 2023-05-02T23:41:49+00:00

When he dropped like 60, 10, 8, and 8 on my team, I knew that something special was brewing.

Mig1997 · 2023-05-02T23:03:44+00:00

I mean yeah...

PlayInChampions · 2023-05-02T23:05:50+00:00

I was at the game in March when Gobert ran Embiid off the paint in the first half, asked him to take contested middies and 3s. Embiid missed none of them, he was 7’1 Kobe. EMVPiid, well deserved!
