After Curry torched the 76ers for 49 points yesterday. There are whispers that Curry should be the favorite to win the MVP. There is also a possibility that, he would be the only 2nd player in league history to win the trophy without his team making the playoffs.Who do you think is the early favorite to win the award?
No Luka vote?

Jokic is better almost across the board statistically, has played more games, and his team is a lot better. There isn't a realistic or logical way for anyone to conclude that Luka has had a better or more valuable season that Jokic.

I think it's Steph -- he's playing on a team that with much of the same roster was a last place team a season ago. This year, in the 8 games he's missed, they went 1-7, and lost by an average of 17 (even if you exclude the 53-point drubbing to Toronto, the average loss was 10). He's taken that team from cellar-dweller to fringe playoff team. If he continues his recent play for the final month, I think he's the choice. Over the last 11 games (since he returned surprisingly early from his injury), he's averaged 40 points while shooting 50% from 3. If that continues, his season-long average will approach being a top-15 all-time scoring season.
