This season should really be Jokic's 5th MVP in a row. He should have been MVP over Embiid, and should be MVP over SGA.

His 5-year stretch is one of the most dominant ever.

It's crazy that Giannis is averaging 30/12/6 on SIXTY PERCENT shooting, and I can't really make a case for him over Jokic.

Nuggets firing everyone.

Cleaning house while a 4 seed in the West with the best player in the league?

Wow.  Apparently the owner of the Nuggets is crazy unhappy.

Malone fired and Donovan still employed?

Lesson: NBA coaches should seek jobs with team that don't want to win.

Dude, they made the play-in tournament.

Truly a nightmare season for Bulls' fans. No shot at Flagg, losing record, AK & BD still employed and no All Star quality players.  >:(

Can't be MVP when your coach gets fired

I won't shed a tear for Billy if/when he's fired, but he's far down the list of problems with the Bulls.

Which was close to their ceiling with this roster. The Bulls are obviously not trying to win, but I don't think Donovan is doing a bad job.

Billy was a great college coach. In the NBA his teams never overachieve and mostly underachieve. There is a reason why the Bulls tried to keep his extension quiet.

Granted, he has the worst GM and owner in the NBA. But he doesn't complain because he'll never get another NBA job.

Knowing the way this kinda thing usually happens in the NBA, this makes sense only if Jokic demanded that Malone be fired.

But I haven't heard of any reports that they weren't getting along, so this is so weird - to fire a championship-caliber coach a week before the playoffs start.

It's hard to know....but clearly the rift between Malone and Booth was a problem.  Jokic should be pissed at their roster.  Remember when Jimmy faked tough guy Jokic?  If Nikola truly got angry, Butler would be a grease stain.

I don't disagree with this. The Bulls could do better if they were serious, but he's not terrible.

The Bucks were down 95-71 with under 10 minutes left and went on a 23-0 run. Might win by double digits now.

He didn't play tonight.  That team has SEVERE problems.  They have horrific contracts led by Beal.  I didn't realize how disastrous they are.  Budenholzer looked upset.

It starts at the top. Ishbia is a terrible owner with no clue what he's doing.
