I can’t believe it.

Give Tatum his flowers, for sure. But how can’t you mention Nikola Jokic. 2xMVP, NBA Champion. Nuggets are 1st. Jokic averaging 30-14-8.

If only Kd had a winning record but he does not. The Suns are 5-6. Of course he has missed Book and Beal but it is what it is. Luka was carrying his team even harder for the first half of the season last year and no one in the media mentioned him.

    KD has no shot. Tatum makes it a race if the Celtics win 60+ games and the Nuggets struggle because of injuries. It’s not impossible to see a narrative where Tatum wins because Jokic and Embiid have MVPs and the Celtics are the clear 1 seed with Tatum doing great with plus minus and averaging 30 and 10. The odds that the Suns have a better record than the Celtics are way smaller than the odds that KD misses 20 games.
