No, true, true.
What do you think, TK?
Up or down?
One thumb up?
I'm up.
I'm up because I think this is going to be the highest finish of Luka's career in MVP voting.
He finished third in 23-24, and like you said, right now he's second in odds, a little bit ahead of Cade.
I don't know, toss-up, I guess, between Cade and Luka.
Cade's team has outperformed Luka's as well, but they're in the easier conference.
I don't know.
Luka, though, is leading the league in scoring, points per game only.
He's got the Lakers apparatus.
That matters.
Absolutely matters.
And the Lakers do have a great clutch record.
So you can say, look at this guy come through when his team needs it the most.
He's oddly low, though, on clutch points per game.
Mostly because when it comes down to it, teams are just going to double Luka Doncic and say, anybody else on the Lakers beat us.
They have been good doing it.
And I will say, if he is allowed to go against Nikola Vucevic every single night, Luka will win the MVP.
