Imagine averaging 27.9 PPG, 12.9 RPG, and 10.8 APG on 67.4% TS — and finishing 4th in the MVP race.
Jokić is on pace to become the first player in NBA HISTORY to lead the league in rebounds AND assists.
He’s actually averaging more PTS, REB, and AST than he did in his last MVP season.
This is one of the craziest MVP races in history.

Michael Jordan: "To win, you got to lose. To be happy, you got to have disappointment."
"I really don't have regrets. As soon as you look back in your history and you come up with something you feel like you want to change, something else has to change."
On disappointment:
"To win, you got to lose. To be successful, you got to have something that's not successful. To be happy, you got to have disappointment. All of those things have evolved to make me who I am and understand the benefits and privileges I have for being who I am."
Jordan shares what his parents taught him:
"Don't wear your reputation. Don't wear your accolades. Don't wear your personality on your sleeve. Let it happen. Let it be you. It is who you are, don't hide from it. But don't rub it in people's faces."
On being voted the greatest athlete:
"It's ironic that I'm the youngest of the three. It's all relevant based on who is watching now. If you ask 20 years from now, I'm pretty sure LeBron may beat me based on who's going to be making the voting. I say that to understand: it is what it is. I don't wear it. I don't showcase it. Someone else's opinion. As an athlete, all you want to do is be the best athlete you can be."
Jordan reflects on his father:
"I had him for 32 years. Obviously, he was murdered. Rarely do I get the chance to talk about him. But the thing I remember, I think about him practically every day. For a person like myself, who lives in the spotlight and is so critical from people all the time, what I do, what I say, where I go, the thing he always said: 'Take a pause before you make a decision. And say: what if.'"
He explains the purpose:
"Whatever decision you make is always going to have consequences, pros and cons. If you think about the consequences, you make the right decisions. Now, all the decisions I made, other people may view them as not the right decisions from their perspective."
Jordan addresses his "failed" baseball career:
"Everybody says it was a failed opportunity to play baseball. That's what they think. For me, it was the best thing that could have happened. It allowed me to go back to the game with stronger passion. At the same time, I was able to understand the love these minor league baseball players have, making $1,500 a month. Which is nothing. But for them, it was big."
He continues:
"To see that helped me put things in perspective to understand the platform I was on in '93. When I went back to it in '95 and '96, I appreciated it even greater. When we won those championships, those things mattered to me far greater than what I did in '91, '92, '93. People don't see that. People will never understand that."
Jordan shares the deeper lesson:
"All they think about is, well, he batted .202, he struck out a certain number of times. Yeah, okay. But the effort was there. The learning curve and the passion was there. That has transcended not just to me, but to other people who are afraid to do things because they're worried about the perception from other places. To me, that's more gratifying than anything. That's what my father and mother instilled in me: take a negative and turn it into a positive. Don't be afraid to fail."
On his mother's constant reminder:
"My mother calls me practically every day. The last words are always: 'Keep your nose clean.' That's her constant reminder: people are watching, people are learning, people are paying attention."
On why he stepped back from the spotlight:
"I want my life to be my life. My time in the spotlight is dwindling, and I want to be able to control what I do and what I don't want to do. I need no more admiration. I've had enough. And it's been great."
Jordan shares what retirement means to him:
"Sometimes I surprise myself saying, 'I got nothing to do today. I got nothing to do tomorrow. I got nothing to do on Wednesday.' That's ultimately retirement. That's where I want to be. Not worrying about what I have to do tomorrow while I'm living in the moment right now."

When Calipari was at Kentucky, the narrative of choking in the NCAAT with elite freshmen was pushed every year.
Duke has had the most talented roster multiple times, with multiple #1
picks, for the better part of a decade and have failed to capitalize.
Where is the same energy?

Let me help rephrase for you Bernie.
Need a loan for college so you can party for a semester and drop out? Taxpayers will loan you money for it.
Need an SBA loan for your business ? Taxpayers will guarantee it.
For a house ? Taxpayers will guarantee it. And local gov will give you money for your first down payment !
Get sick or are in an accident and you can’t afford your deductible, insurance company denied prescribed care or are uninsured ?
You are on your own 😤
Let me add Bernie, the one debt not a single one of us will ever pay off till the day we die ? Our health insurance premiums
And before you go in and on about single payer, ask @claudeai to take a look at your proposed Single Payer legislation.
You want the Sec of HHS to run it. You can’t have a political appointee run an apolitical position
And you expect every provider and doctor to accept whatever rate is set by Medicare. Big hospitals don’t know their costs. They couldn’t do a BOM for any procedure. They have negligible transparency.
If they don’t know their costs, and you don’t know their costs, how is it possible for taxpayers, caregivers and patients to get a fair deal ?
And the concept of “every other country does it “ ignores the fact that they all converted decades and decades ago, long before you and your peers allowed the extreme vertical integration we face now.
Which leads to the question. @BernieSanders , why have you not advocated for the Break Up Big Medicine Bill ?
Bernie Sanders@BernieSanders
Health care? "You're on your own." Housing? "Nothing we can do." Grocery prices? "You're out of luck." $200 billion for another war? "No problem!" Americans—Democrats, Republicans, independents—are SICK AND TIRED of endless wars. We need to invest here at home.

A 40-year-old working mom of two just said what a lot of women are quietly thinking after years in the corporate grind:
“I fell for it. Go to college, get the degree, you can have it all — career, kids, the whole thing.
I don’t want to do it all anymore.
I want to take my kids to school, pick them up, be there when they get home, chaperone field trips, volunteer, go to the gym, clean the house, do laundry, cook dinner… just be home.”
She’s blunt: “It’s not worth it. Don’t fall for that sh... Find a way to be with your family.”
It’s raw, honest, and hits different when you hear it from someone who’s lived both sides.
Moms (and dads) — have you ever reached that point where the “have it all” dream started feeling like a trap?
What would your ideal balance actually look like if money or societal pressure wasn’t part of the equation?
