 Here's a look at the updated NBA MVP odds. Jason Tatum improving to plus 3500. He was plus 5000 entering the All-Star weekend. Tatum gaining more attention on the national stage, and he was asked about one day becoming the face of the league. Yeah, when the Brown retires, you know, the face of the league. That's tough, but, you know, we went to championship. I got something to say about it. I know that. All right, we want you to join the conversation. Vote in our poll. Which of these players should be the face of the NBA when LeBron finally retired? Right now, Yanis is the leader in the clubhouse of 34%. Tatum right behind him at 26%. Maybe this is a weak answer. But to me, you're not going to replace a LeBron, right? Like, there was a time in between where you had Kobe, who kind of, I guess, was that bridge between Michael Jordan and LeBron James. But like those, to me, Jordan and LeBron are two unicorns. And right now, to me, like the face of the NBA, because LeBron isn't, I don't feel any more Gary. To me, it's more of like an amalgamation of guys. Like, on a big night, it might be Yokech. It might be Yanis. Some nights, it might be Tatum. Some nights, it might be Karl-Anthony Towns. Like, there just isn't one guy that has stole the spotlight. No. And unfortunately, a lot of the guys, like, Yokech could be, but Yokech doesn't want to be. Yokech wants nothing. He wants to go home by this horse. Yes, he would his horses and race horses and come out the day before training camp, dominate without ever really being in premium shape. You really don't see any muscles in that guy. And then be the best player in the league. And then the day after the championship, go back home and then do it all over again. Yanis is almost 30. I don't know, like, he's been around a while. I think Tatum has a chance. But like Tatum said, people are judging him on the 22 finals because he did not play well. They're judging him on. You've been to all these these recovery finals. You never won a championship. When are you and Jalen gonna win a championship? So he's right. To get the monkey off his back, he's going to have to win a title to be the face of the league. Because eventually, whenever that happens, LeBron is gonna hand over the mantle. He's becoming like Tom Brady now. Yeah, he's gonna retire, but we have no idea when, it could be three to four more years because he still wants to play with his son. So Tatum has a real shot. You know, he's one of the, obviously one of the best American players in the world. You can, you know, Anthony Edwards. You can my, some people have said even Steph Curry could be the face of the league, but Steph's 35, he's 35, but he's got no, I mean, he could play five more years with his style. So there is no right answer. There's a lot of answers. I disagree. There is a right answer. The right answer is it should be Jason Tatum. It should be. For all the reasons Gary just mentioned, he's also in a great sports market with championship, real championship, not only aspirations, but expectations. Even though they haven't won one in a long time, they have been that good and they should be winning and winning at a high rate for the next 10 years, as long as this guy is on the team between his age, his ability to do everything right on the floor and off, by the way, that's a huge component of this. And I think the market itself and why people, or the fact that people care as much as they do here about this team, I think allows Jason Tatum to be the guy as long as he wins. And I loved his answer the other night because that is the key training. He understands until he wins a championship, he's not going to be taken seriously as one of the game's truly, truly elite. Here's a callback to another show. So you're saying it might be a failure if they don't win the title. I'm not saying that.
