The whole team.
People are talking to Ayton on the bench.
I said this before.
I'll say it again.
The trade deadline passing was the best thing that happened to this team.
So you got to give credit to JJ.
But I mean, all the passive-aggressive stuff, all the who might be here, who deserves to be here, what's going to happen with LeBron, is LeBron going to be happy?
All that stuff just goes away the moment everyone's stuck with the team.
And the moment they were stuck with the team, and then LeBron missed a couple games and came back, and then all of a sudden, now everyone's happy.
Luka does look in better shape, though.
I will say that.
He has an awesome case, and there's probably years where he would have won.
He's averaging 34-8-8, and the team's going to be a three seed.
Wemby has been the most dominant player in the league for two months now.
Jokic is going to average a triple-double for the year, and is going to finish fourth in the MVP, which is nuts.
He's having the best statistical year of his career, I think.
It's, uh, we've had this before.
Like 87 was like this bird one, three straight in an 87 finished third in the voting and had his best year.
He had a better year than all three of his MVP years and finished third.
Cause this is how it goes down.
