[@SilentpoetYTwatcher]

dei mvp?

[@cameronworsley3249]

I get what you mean but it’s all based around surrounding pieces and supporting cast. Those numbers just show that Luka had to do more to win which is why he was ahead of ant in the mvp race. Overall even tho the Mavs won I believe Minnesota was the better overall team they just had no answer for Luka and Rudy can’t score Rudy hurt them the worst. Minnesota would have definitely been a tougher matchup for Boston in my opinion.

Minnesota is going to be a fun team to watch this season

[@twelve28dagreat]

I actually agree with Mccants on this one. Realistically Julius Randle was traded to the Timberwolves because he wasn’t going to fit in with this new Knicks team. I think it’ll be a clash between Anthony Edwards and Julius Randle. A lot of those wolves players have a lot to prove and will expect more shots since there’s no more KAT.

[@cusumano91]
