Luka for MIP? A lot of times we here how Siakam could become MIP again this season. So let's compare them:
Siakam
16,9 - 25,1
6,9 - 8,6
3,1 - 3,9
Luka
21,2 - 30,7
7,8 - 10,3
6 - 9,4
Both guys have made their teams considerably better than expected. Taking into account how much more difficult it is to come from 20 to 30 than from 15 to 25, Luka is a clear winner for me here.
The third candidate would be Graham from Charlotte.

I don't even think you need to include this. The assists stat alone helps the case and if he ends up the season averaging a triple double, there's no way anyone else in the league improves that much more than him. If he does average a triple double, it'd be hard to not give him the MVP, which I think puts a damper on his MIP bidding. However, if he doesn't win the MVP, I think MIP should very much be his.
