Nikola Jokic was voted the best player in the world by 13 of 15 GMs, Scouts, and Executives polled in the annual ESPN survey. Last year he did not receive a single vote. The DNVR Nuggets Podcast team discusses those results and the rest of the survey results on today’s show.
Plus, will the old guard of LeBron James, Steph Curry, or Kevin Durant win another NBA championship as the main guy? And how would expansion affect the Nuggets?

Jokic won’t be the best player in 5 years because he’ll have won 2 more titles and be retired by then.
I am sorry guys but Nikola Jokić is the best player on planet Earth at the moment.
Greatest crew
At what point in the season can we start the fire Malone chant 😅😅😅
The Lingerer reference Eric 🤣
Giannis dragged his team to the first ranking spot in the league averaging 31/12/6 with his second best player out for the majority of the year, all the while playing great defense and he still didn't win MVP or get into the all defense squads. Imagine Jokic had done that; they would have given him the MVP and named him DPOY. Giannis just gets underrated. I hope he goes on a revenge tour this year and massacres the league.
I feel like I haven't watched for a week and something grew on Vogt's face
Adam, Great appearance on Lowe's!
That Suns trade absolutely made them a better matchup for the Nuggets! There was no doubt in my mind that the Suns had no chance of defending the Nuggets without Bridges!! The Suns would be a better team w the players they traded for Durant, and would be able to improve upon that this season by adding legit bench players to what they already had…I feel the same way now w the Beal addition.
Just wild that Jokić was the reigning 2 time MVP and didn’t get a vote!
Thank you for the reality check on Wemby, Vogt! Good Lord! The best player in 5 years and he hasn’t played one game in the NBA?! C’mon man….
I think Ant’s performance in the playoffs pushed him up the list. He was phenomenal!
The Suns just doubled down on the same thing that didn’t work last season and made themselves older in the process!
I think Picket gets more minutes, partly because I believe that Huff has a legit opportunity to play fairly “significant” minutes as the backup 5. If he shows ability early, I think the Nuggs will try to develop him in NBA action.
This chat was tryin to trade both Mal and MPJ in March last season!! 😂😂😂
Vogt absolutely spittin FIRE 🔥 today!! “Fine in the East” was perfect!
