🔥🗣️ Enough! DPOY was made for guys like Victor Wembanyama when guys like Luka Doncic have a historic two-way season.
There is a MASSIVE 23.4-point gap between Luka Doncic and Wembanyama in points created per game — 59.6 (a record) vs 36.2 PPG. Wembanyama also has more help, as the Spurs tanked for years to assemble top draft picks like Harper and Castle around him.
The media is gaslighting you. Luka Doncic is the MVP.
Crazy but true:
Wemby’s +224 plus-minus over the last 10 games is the second highest +/- over any 10-game stretch since the NBA started officially tracking it during the 1996-97 season 🤯
Wemby being willing to let it fly from midrange allows this to work btw. Look how close the defense is up on him. If they can sag off, it breaks this concept.
I know it's not always pretty, but his jump shooting opens his rim scoring.
Spurs got some good mileage out of this set. Elbow catch for Wembanyama into a DHO on an empty side
-Bulls wanted to stick with the roll and help but hard to stop the lob
-Adjusted to stick with the roll and step up from baseline. Opened Bryant diving from short corner.
