Imagine a hypothetical scenario where you locked these sports media voters in a room and had them watch all of the games of the top 10 MVP candidates, and then had them vote without being able to talk with each other, there is no way that the vote would be nearly unanimous. I don’t even think Jackson would win.
I think this year especially they all just kind of voted for who everybody else was voting for. And Lamar benefitted greatly by being the last name that “everybody was voting for”.
