I know this may seem like a dumb question but the reason I’m asking is because no player besides Lebron in the last 25 years has won more than 3 mvps and the only ones besides him are MJ, Magic, Bird, and Hakeem so if Jokic wins another MVP does he automatically slot into a top 10 player oat slot?

Shaq has 1 MVP to his name and he was the best player in the world for a 3peat. MVPs are a terrible way to judge players all time.

Stop letting your opinion of players be based on the judgment of 50 random sports writers that don't even watch the games.

I agree that top 10 players don’t need 3 mvps what my point was that there haven’t been any players with 3 mvps who weren’t top 10 players so with Jokic being favored this year to win his 3rd mvp, I don’t think it’s unreasonable to assume he’ll be a top 10 player

They aren't top 10 players because they're MVPs though. You're looking at the greatest players of all time, trying to find something they have in common, and then trying to say that any player that has also achieved those things should also be among the greatest players of all time. You're doing it wrong.
