The Milwaukee Bucks are struggling to find their footing, with Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard not being able to figure out the pick and roll, a simple yet deadly play in the NBA. Meanwhile, the Denver Nuggets are looking to repeat as champions, but Nikola Jokic's supporting cast is a concern. The Oklahoma City Thunder's Shay Gildas-Alexander is making a strong case for MVP, averaging over 30 points per game and leading the league in scoring.
