Is it Possible that Anthony Davis is now Better Now than Bubble AD?

AD can be as good as Giannis but the biggest issue (outside health) has been determination.

Giannis has the Kobe, Jordan, LeBron etc. will to win and be great. He WANTS so badly to be that top guy. He goes crazy in his own mind when he underperforms and you saw that after he missed free throws against Philadelphia. He wanted to shoot in the arena after the game and threw a ladder to the ground, he was even ready to fight Montrez Harrell.

It honestly takes an obsessive mentality for someone to be that rich and talented and successful and STILL be motivated to be great at something like it's life or death. Only the rarest and most special players have that ability.

This season is the first time AD has ever put together a dominant stretch like this outside the Bubble. Lets hope he can stay motivated because MVP is not out of the question for AD if the Lakers can win 47 games and grab a 4th-5th seed.
