SGA will get MVP first and Luka FMVP first. The Mavs aren’t really built for the regular season and the Thunder strike me as one of those teams that are more successful in the regular season than the playoffs.
Also SGA is the hot new prospect and Luka’s early excellence is clearly held against him in the form of voter fatigue without actually winning the award. Nothing shy of the 1st seed and 35/9/9 will get Luka an MVP.
Meanwhile about 30/6/5 will probably be good enough for SGA to get MVP if he’s a top 2 seed with a vastly superior squad than any other Western conference team.
Funny how the Nuggets lost because Jokic’s interior defense (or lack thereof) made Ant look like Jordan but Lively slowed him down considerably as a rookie, yet it’s Luka’s defense that’s the worst of everyone.
