IMO there is a pretty big jump from the mvp tier of Jokic, Embiid, Giannis, Steph, KD, and Luka to the next tier of players (Shai, book, Tatum, bron, ant, Khawi ETC). Even though Booker is as you said generally only 4-6 players behind Luka in most rankings, the gap feels wider when it comes to ability/impact on the court.

Yup, Bucks prob have to do everything they can to keep him happy, even if what he wants is not conducive to winning basketball. Thank god he didn’t want NN lol.

I mean he regressed in historic fashion from his peak play, especially considering his tools and perceived ceiling. It’s not like he regressed when he hit 32 either, dude fell off the face of the planet after that souls crushing Hawks series when he was 25.

I appreciate the sentiment, but your comment is missing the point. I’ve been a 4 major sport fan my entire life. I’ve been through a shit ton of ups and downs over several generations of players and incarnations of teams. I’ve never seen anyone of Jo’s talent level and ilk receive this type of hate/disrespect. It’s something else. Look at these comments….

This thread is a clown show. Basketball fandom has become so toxic, it’s by far the worst in sports.
