The Suns have to win more for either guy to get in the conversation (and Book needs to be healthy) but KD and Book’s stat lines and shooting splits are both right up there. And even not considering team records or Book’s small sample size, Joker would still be the easy choice. He is just a machine. When do we start talking about where he ranks all-time?

I remember when 25-5-5 was this rare air that maybe 1-2 players a season would reach and LeBron’s consistent 27-7-7 was mind blowing. Now it’s like a prerequisite to be in the MVP race.

Has defense gotten significantly worse in the last 10 years or are we just witnessing generational offensive players? If these players each averaged these stats for a whole season it would historic seasons for all of them compared to other players in the past. Im seriously wondering if the defense is worse now or are the players just insane right now.

I think Embiid could go 36/15/9 and he wouldn’t repeat

Tatum TS should be higher if he can stop shooting 70+ % something at the free throw line

It's weird a guy who can hardly jump is the best rebounder.

Bro just look at ALL of those numbers, despite who you rooting for. Jesus those guys are killing it.

Last year SGA has the most FT’s made. In retribution the refs won’t call a thing this year
