The Big Number this week looks at the spectacular season being had by Giannis Antetokounmpo of the Milwaukee Bucks. Could the Greek Freak finish 3rd in the MVP race, despite how disappointing the team has been? Tom Haberstroh and Dan Devine reveal that Giannis is putting up numbers that we've never seen before, but no one is talking about it. That probably has something to do with the Bucks being WINLESS against the Cleveland Cavaliers, Boston Celtics, New York Knicks, Golden State Warriors and Oklahoma City Thunder this season. Tuesday night's loss to Golden State was bad enough that Doc Rivers called a meeting with Giannis and Damian Lillard to try and pull the Bucks out of a "dire" situation.
(3:30) - Does Giannis deserve more MVP buzz?
(13:25) - Celtics' lead over Bucks helps Tatum's case
(17:55) - Is the Cavs' talented roster hurting Donovan Mitchell's case?

Kevin O'Connor and Mark Titus unveil their first-ever March Madness NBA Prospect Draft! Mark says the #1 overall player on both offense and defense in the coming NBA Draft is Cooper Flagg, which has both guys realizing the Duke phenom compares to football's 2-way stud, Travis Hunter. Mark drafts a full 5-man starting lineup of prospects participating in March Madness, including a 6th Man. Kevin then drafts his 5-man starting lineup including the 1st guy off his bench. Some of the names they discuss: Jase Richardson (Michigan State), VJ Edgecombe (Baylor), Kon Knueppel (Duke), Derik Queen (Maryland), Jeremiah Fears (Oklahoma), and more. Plus both guys weigh in on the disappointment of Rutgers not being in The Tournament, which means America misses out on getting to see the brilliant play of both Ace Bailey and Dylan Harper (boo!)
