Nikola Jokic missed out on his 4th MVP, but he already holds the title of "MVP of the Decade."

It's not every day you'll find a player win MVP despite never having a teammate be All-NBA, All-Defense or an All-Star in his first 10 seasons in the league.

Joker is the first to do so in the last 42 years.

It's an incredible stat, and with all apologies to Jamal Murray, Aaron Gordon and the rest of their core, it shows the Nuggets have given him little help since he set foot on an NBA court.

According to Tom Haberstroh of Yahoo Sports, there have been 25 different MVPs in the last 42 years, including SGA.

None have had fewer than 4 teammates qualify for one of those teams during the seasons they played together.

🔸Magic Johnson: 35
🔸Larry Bird: 32
🔸Steph Curry: 27
🔸LeBron James: 12
🔸Michael Jordan: 12

The average number of All-NBA, All-Defense or All-Star teammates per MVP is 16.

Jokic still has 0.

No major help.
Just pure dominance for a decade and counting...

🤯🇷🇸 No player in NBA history has ever been in the Top 10 in PPG, RPG, APG, SPG in a single season.

Jokic in 2024-25 is Top 3 in all those categories 🏅

Did he deserve to win the MVP?

[Real App @realapp]

Nikola Jokic is the first player in NBA history to finish a season top 3 in PPG, RPG, & APG.

@Raphmeta @espn @ShamsCharania How?

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr @RobertKennedyJr]

President Biden’s illegal refusal to release the JFK assassination records and his reckless escalations in Ukraine remind us of New Orleans DA Jim Garrison’s singularly insightful quote from his book, Heritage of Stone:

“Until the work of the Kennedy assassins is undone, Presidents will come and go but the warfare machine and its extensive intelligence tentacles, domestic as well as foreign, will remain in control. The assassination reduced the President of the United States to a transient official, a servant of the warfare conglomerate. His assignment is to speak as often as possible about the nation’s desire for peace, while he serves as a business agent with Congress for the military and their hardware manufacturers.”

@notthefakeSVP @B_rizzle_bws Looks like I was right Scott, glad you cam around, Bud.

[Tan @T_Metz]

Hey @espn why do your “highlights” of the #Nuggets #Clippers game only have “highlights” from the losing team? Quit promoting shitty sports teams, you money grubbing attention whores. Also no one will buy ESPN+ for your shitty @KingJames articles.

@NBA Monte deserves a ring if the Nuggets win this year.

[Tan @T_Metz]

@Yop5299479708 @DrGuru_ Who were on those teams and how close were the teams in terms of seeding this year??? Oh yeah they were all separated by less that 4 wins from 3-8. Sit down you crusty dust buster

[Ethical Hoops🏆 (only takes Ws) @EthicalHoopz]

This is the most egregious flop I’ve seen in an NBA Finals game 😭
