Usually I don’t think a former all nba, former Allstar, former MIP, former champion and max player should win that award…but the dialogue surrounding Pascal does exist…I guess that comes with playing for the Raptors. Demar didn’t really get his flowers until he was in Chicago, Lowry is a lock for the hall of fame and people argue that, Norman Powell/FVV/OG all received way more attention and credit once leaving the Raptors.
Joel Embiid. Next question?
I’m an Aussie, so I hate saying this but…Ben Simmons or Josh Giddey as most overrated.
Simmons still gets spoken about based on his draft position, his first couple of seasons, and is expected to get back to that level but he’s just useless.
Giddey was great, until he wasn’t. His numbers haven’t been huge, but his successes have. And then this last playoffs, he just disappeared. Then got benched. Then got traded. It was a swift fall from grace and I hope he recovers in Chicago.
*All my first instinct, didnt really run much numbers to back it up xD*
