Nearly 15 minutes into an All-Star interview session, the Denver Nuggets' back-to-back MVP was starting to get a little punchy.
"Do you care about winning the MVP?" a reporter asked.
"Yes," Nikola Jokic answered, with a hint of exasperation in his voice.
Why?
"Because the last seven times, I said no," Jokic shot back. "Now I'm just going to change it up."
The truth is, Jokic seemingly couldn't care less about the possibility of becoming just the fourth player in NBA history to win three MVPs in a row, joining Larry Bird (1984-1986), Wilt Chamberlain (1966-1968) and Bill Russell (1961-1963).
