The Official NBA Season Thread: NBA Cup Night

This season I think the issue was people viewing the Celtics as so stacked that Tatum wasn’t as integral to the team’s success as guys like Jokic and SGA were.
Exactly it

He's punished there for the same reason that his shooting numbers are down in the postseason but his team is still cruising and destroying teams :lol:

The other guys might be on teams that are also good but they have better numbers and those teams would be dramatically worse off if they weren't there.

It's easier to picture a team like Boston still winning a playoff round if he were to go down than it is with the Nuggets without Joker, OKC without Shai, Dallas without Luka, NY without Brunson and etc...

Havent been keeping up so this may have been mentioned but why I feel this Jokic MVP, while he still deserved it, is also a “makeup” MVP for not getting last year and ultimately winning the chip.

Why would it be a makeup when nobody was robbed last year?
