At this stage, the regular season is coming to an end, and many awards are basically settled now. This season's scoring title should be won by Alexander, who averaged 33 points per game after today's game against the Pistons, 2.4 points ahead of second-placed Antetokounmpo, who may be difficult to catch up with Alexander, who will win the first scoring title of his career this season.
One of Alexander's biggest accolades this season will come to him compared to the scoring title, and that is the regular season MVP. Based on Alexander's performance this season and the team's record, the award of the regular season MVP trophy to Alexander should be a sure thing. Alexander will officially become a superstar, and he is expected to accumulate accolades across the board this season. In addition to winning the regular season MVP and scoring title, he may also win the Finals MVP and the first championship trophy of his career.
The better Alexander's performance and the higher his achievements, the more heartbroken it is for the Clippers management, because Alexander was a player selected by the Clippers back then, and the Clippers also wanted to develop Alexander, and Jerry West believes that Alexander is a very potential player. Alexander had already shown great potential when he was with the Clippers, but the Clippers eventually sent Alexander to the Thunder in a trade involving Paul George, and the Thunder were the ones who benefited. At present, this trade is a historic mistake made by the Clippers, because Paul George has not done anything since joining the Clippers and has not brought substantial results to the Clippers.
We have to marvel at the vision of the Thunder, who are willing to spend a few years developing Alexander, they are a very patient team. After years of slumping, they are finally coming to fruition, and their current squad has assembled a big three squad that is likely to reach the top this year. And Alexander could make the Thunder a top team for years to come. Therefore, the vision of the team management can determine the long-term development of a team. If the Clippers had been determined not to trade Alexander and patiently waited for another two years, they might have gained a superstar.
