The only answer is Jokic.

Just NBA? Embiid. As injury prone as Joel is, he doesn't come close to Walton in that department. But still would rather have Walton's career.

Lead your team to a chip in one of the most memorable Finals of the decade & win 6MOY on one of the greatest teams ever.

I rank Walton higher because from what I heard he had a higher peak (plus he won the championship). The Portland Trail Blazers that won it all were 50-10 the following year before he got injured. So he had a couple of seasons in which he totally dominated the league. Also, I don't think Joel deserved MVP as he issed too many games.

If youre a quarterback you need to be able to throw the football.

This is what I've been trying to tell yall. We need to make quarterbacks white again. Dan Marino and Brett Favre style, you feel me?

Walton missed 24 games the year he won MVP, more than Embiid.

With that said, Jokic was robbed that year.

Well, then neither of them deserved their MVP. Anyway, I still go with Walton because the championships and the year they started 50-10.
