The NBA MVP race should be simple… but somehow it never is. This year looks like Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s award to lose—but is that actually the right call?

We break down the MVP criteria, who’s eligible, and why the voting process keeps rewarding the wrong things. Because if “most valuable” really mattered, Nikola Jokić might be winning this race by a mile.

So what are voters actually rewarding—winning, stats, narrative… or something else entirely?

Let’s settle this.

🎯 Let’s Settle This turns hypotheticals into full-contact conversation.

Every week, Grant and Jonathan dive into something that needs a definitive answer in TV, movies, or sports and they get to the bottom of it! Best TV shows? Movies you should see? Best dunk of the year? Yeah — we’re settling that.
