What would Embiid realistically have to do, to repeat as MVP? (alien.top)

The entire NBA ecosystem seems to have unanimously decided that there's no shot for Embiid to win consecutive MVPs, especially after this year's playoffs where Embiid underperformed, while his most direct competitor established himself both as a champion, and as the top-dog in the league

But the one thing NBA has consistently proven, is that it's very tricky to predict (notwithstanding the Warriors superserum run), and there very well maybe a future where we're watching Joel Embiid hoist up that award once again come May.

So what do you guys think, realistically needs to happen with the Sixers, Embiid himself and the rest of his competition this regular season, for him to win a second MVP?

Honestly think it’s less about his own play and more about his direct competition. He needs to be MVP caliber himself, as he has been the last couple of years, but also needs no one else to be very close, or they’ll get it over him.
