Would you say Paul George was/is a top 3 player? I'm not sure if 2019 PG is even top 10 tbh
no, i think it would be ridiculous to think top 3 in mvp voting = top 3 player. but i wanted to give this data point because there's value in understanding what we're talking about, i.e., what 'peak pippen' even means/looks like. and i think it's possible that people who voted 'top 20 player' would think it's crazy if i said 2019 pg wasn't even a top 15 player.
