There is definitely a pathway for Tatum to win MVP
To me, it's all predicated on Tatum's shooting efficiency. That would help his field goal percentages across the board, and keep his scoring average high
Celtics are already going to be at least Top 3 in their conference, he just needs to be efficient from 2, from 3, and at the line, and the MVP is his
Yea, that's always been Tatum's obstacle to overcome. He produces "top 5" numbers but often at top 15'ish efficiency. Jokic, Giannis SGA produce top 5 at top 5. Hell, this year Jokic produces top 1 at top 1. It's why JT will always be in mvp talks but is never voted a top 3 finalists and is more often outside of the top 5, no matter the team record.
It may be pure coincidental but your PER does have a real correlation to your MVP consideration if you look back at the last however many winners. Not the only factor but notable. To his credit, he started this season on fire/with something to prove but it's about maintaining it.
though it doesnt get as much press theres one more record id be shocked if lebron doesnt stick around and try to break. entering tonight he was 846 field goals behind kareem for the most all time. its doable even if he starts load managing as long as he doesnt get injured.
