Draymond Green on Tatum Doncic Brunson Wimby
Jayson Tatum will never secure an NBA MVP award in Draymond Green's view, since his early and sustained success makes the achievement feel unremarkable. The same logic applies to Luka Doncic; averaging 34 points a game is just what people expect from him, so it won't earn the title either. For this season, the pick goes to Jalen Brunson, who fits the mold of someone convinced all summer that nobody respects him despite winning a championship and hosting SNL. There is also support for Wimby as an easy MVP choice, provided he takes a bigger jump offensively. #JaysonTatum

I like Wimby as MVP. I think everybody easy one to pick for sure. I'm going to go Jalen Brunson. Oh, I love that pick. He's the type of dude that's convinced himself all summer that like they don't respect me. And I won a championship, but they still don't respect me. I'm hosting SNL. They don't respect me. Yeah, like in order to be who he is, the pick he is, that size, he has to have that type of mindset. .
