Big (Man) Love, 2025-26 season

Is Victor already the best player in basketball? Basketball may have never been easier to anybody than Jokic, but Victor also takes away so many options from the opposing team, which I think is huge in terms of impact on winning.

You're right, does that make him technically disqualified?

His line qualifies because he was already included in the nightly listing, but if at least one more Big Man doesn't win tonight... It'd be a hell of a thing if he goes for 83 and there aren't enough qualified statlines for him to get the award. :eek:

It's different when it's family. There is no escape, so I try to keep a sense of humor about it. Maybe I should set up a little Caleb Wilson shrine in my apartment and hope for divine intervention?
