There's a version of this where after the all-star game, he's back to being MVP and B because we've seen, we've seen peak and B to be absolutely dominant. Just as night after night, not just scoring.

And he would just either if you backed off him, he would turn and shoot or he would back you down if he had a mismatch. Like there was a while where they would just I think Doc was the coach where they just give it to him at the foul line. And just that's how they started their offense.

I was going to go the other way. They don't drink enough beer. I mean, that's really what it is. Look, look, look. The MVP of the league, the undisputed best player in the league, is fat. And he doesn't jump. And he doesn't run fast.
